So here we go with a scratch build of the Bo Katan helmet.
I started with a skateboard helmet from Goodwill ($3).
I then used a For Sale sign from Wally World for the skirt.
Next came figuring out the lines for the face cutouts.
Here was the first face "T" template cutout. I later ended up redoing it because I wasn't happy with the lines.
This more/less shows the method I used to get a feel for how the lines were coming out. I used a heavy card stock cut out to the size of the front skirt.
The template transferred over to the FS sign plastic.
Then I moved out into the shop and started with the actual build.
Reinforcing the inside with some fiberglass and resin to give it some strength for the construction process.
In progress shot of the ears.
Ears ready to get attached.
Starting to build up the brow
Removed the graphics from the front skirt. Reference photo in back to get the brow relief figured out.
More sanding..
Cheeks cutout. Note the "beard" at the bottom. This is what i came up with to hold the bottom together while the cheeks were cut out. Since the cheeks essentially get cut to within a millimeter of the base, I needed a way to hold that small thread of plastic together until the back was built up. It worked really well.
Card stock taped in the holes as a form for fiberglass backing.
One layer of glass on the inside against card stock molds.
Card stock removed.
Eyes cut out. More sanding and shaping
Most of the shaping done. Now just need to get some primer on it to bring out imperfections that need to be fixed.
Primer coats: 2.
Primer dried to touch.
So that's where i'm at now. I have some sanding and a small bit of filling left to do that really came out and became easy to spot with the primer on. Molding and casting supplies are on the way. I'm hoping to cast a first run in the next couple of weeks. Still have a few things to do: build the back vent and put it in place, build the rangefinder stalk and greeblies and work out how I'm going to attach. The RF will be servo-ready but not required. Need to fill/smooth the T cut-out also and fix a couple other small things.
Learning quite a bit on my first build. Looking forward to the next one already!
Thanks for looking,

Vu Lam is CEO of QASymphony. He has over eighteen years of software industry experience, including founding two outsourcing companies and building a nationwide infrastructure connecting Vietnam's banks, stock brokerages, and commercial entities. In this Sticky ToolLook interview, he discusses testing in the agile world.
Sticky ToolLook: What are some ways in which bug reporting and test documentation differ for agile organizations compared to "traditional" organizations?
Vu Lam : With respect to test documentation, one significant difference is that in traditional organizations, testers usually design detailed test cases based on available requirement specifications before actually executing any of them, usually weeks or months later. In an agile setting, testers tend to adopt exploratory testing, where they combine test design, execution, and emerging learning. Test cases are still designed, but they are created in the minds of testers when they test instead of being written down beforehand. In a sense, this is similar to the way agile developers design their software. That is, they rely more on emerging design happening during coding and refactoring rather than following the instructions of design documents.
Why does this make sense for agile teams? Changes. Teams adopt agile processes for that exact reason: Changes are inevitable in their project. Think about it. There is no point in rigidly executing a test case if it is already out of date by the time you test. Besides the overhead of documenting it and keeping it up to date, it simply does not make sense.
Regarding bug reporting, there is no fundamental change to the process. Most testers in an agile team still resort to bug-tracking systems to manage bugs, and they still need to submit well documented bug reports that help developers reproduce and fix the bugs. However, testers on an agile team have to rely on multiple communication mediums with developers more often, rather than collaborating via a non-verbal or non-visual medium constrained by a complicated defect-resolution workflow. On some teams I have been a part of, we even used the same tracking system to manage both user stories and bugs. On yet other teams, we treated outstanding bugs of a sprint just like user stories. Simplification, however, requires the team to approach bug fixing just like any other task in an agile project: It must be driven by the value it brings to the business.
Sticky ToolLook: Agile organizations focus on communication, often aiming for regular, face-to-face feedback. What are some of the communication challenges specific to a testing team at an agile organization, and how can teams overcome those challenges?
Vu Lam : I know many testers are more comfortable dealing with use case specifications, test cases and emails, etc. than doing face-to-face communications. Sometimes, this is simply their working style. Unfortunately, more often than not, this is due to a lack of understanding about agile processes and a tendency to stick with old habits. To get over these, testers have to educate themselves as much as they can about the values and principles of agile development and understand that they, too, have to embrace these values and principles for agile development to work. Regular, face-to-face communication is just one of the principles of agile development that testers have to adopt.
Yet, with global teams, face-to-face communication is not always possible. While local teams can and need to practice it, distributed teams have to learn how to maximize effectiveness and rely on other communication venues such as phone, IM, collaboration tools, visual correspondence, and documentation of ideas and test results.
Sticky ToolLook: How should a global organization handle agile? That is, if teams (or

Timber Ridge residents say complex is infested with brown recluse spiders
One resident's father goes before city council
COLUMBIA, Mo. - A man went before the Columbia City Council Monday night to make the city aware of what he calls a "brown recluse infestation" at his daughter's apartment complex.
He said he and his daughter have killed at least 40 spiders in her Timber Ridge apartment since the beginning of August. And he presented a video to the council as proof.
ABC 17 News went to Timber Ridge apartments Monday to ask other residents if they were also having problems.
Seven residents said they have killed dozens of what they believe to be brown recluse spiders.
"They're everywhere all the time and I keep killing them," said Timber Ridge resident Lexie Rick.
Rick moved to Timber Ridge last month and said she has killed between 20 and 30 spiders since then.
Rick and Baker said the complex has sprayed, but it hasn't solved the problem.
According to a local pest control company, brown recluse spiders are not easy to get rid of.
"It can be very difficult to kill them with insecticides that you spray for things like ants and cockroaches and things like that," said Peter Riney with Critter Control.
Baker said management didn't take any action beyond their routine spray.
When he addressed the council, he suggested an ordinance be put in place that protects tenants and requires property management across the city to report infestations.
In the meantime, Riney said he suggests residents to buy cardboard glue traps to monitor the problem and help catch the spiders.

A great album by the rock band Pink Floyd. The Wall has many great songs such as "Young Lust", "Hey You", "Comfortably Numb", and many other memorable tunes. The Wall was released in 1979, but it sounds fresh, even today!
by Qbert February 08, 2004
A Term created From Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' album which implys that a person is stuck behind some sort of physiological wall, unable to reach the outside world, unable to find reality, only leaving small holes in the wall for whomever he or she cares the most for. This can be extremely traumatic for the person who has in a way 'built' the wall around him or herself in order to escape or run away from the real life problems or people. This condition is often paired with manic or regular depression.
"What's wrong with him?"
"He's stuck in the wall"
"I don't see anything"
"No, it's in his head, the wall is in his head"
"He's stuck in the wall"
"I don't see anything"
"No, it's in his head, the wall is in his head"

Cleveland Steamer Plush
The vengeful act of crapping on a lover's chest while they sleep.Buy the plush
The Wall is a puzzle-esque rock opera by Pink Floyd. The story follows the rise and fall of Pink Floyd, a rocker who finds that fame is not everything. Set during WWII, the lyrics are both enchanting, haunting and frightening. The album includes much symbolism. Who are The Worms? What is The Wall? What role does Mother play? What does Pink mean by, "Goodbye, cruel world/I'm leaving you today"? What is The Trial? Questions like these are things you should keep in mind. Do not try to listen to The Wall in one sitting. You will not get it. If you want to extract the full meaning of the music, listen to each song and think about it. Listen hard to the background noises, the actual lyrics, and the change of voice pitch and emotion.
Figure out The Wall. You'll be surprised.

Away in the Woods, Minutes from Branson
Amazing Branson Log Cabins • Ridgedale, MO
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Stay for Up to Eight Guests in a Three-Bedroom Cabin, Mondays through Thursdays ($229) or Any Nights of the Week ($269)
- Or, a Three-Night Stay for Up to Eight Guests in a Three-Bedroom Cabin, Mondays through Thursdays ($349) or Any Nights of the Week ($399)
If there's a show, Branson's got it. Comedy shows, variety shows, Country music shows, magic shows—it's not the Live Entertainment Capital of the World for nothing. But because it's tucked away in the thick of the Ozark Mountains, Branson is also an away-from-it-all retreat for families, outdoorsmen, and anyone seeking a bit of seclusion.
As you cross the quaint covered bridge at the entrance of the Amazing Branson Log Cabins, you'll feel worlds away from the bright lights of Vegas in the Ozarks—even if it's just a short 20-minute drive to town. Dispersed about the grassy property beneath towering trees, each of 17 idyllic log cabins is equipped with a private hot tub on a secluded back porch. Inside, the rustic-modern units are appointed with rich leather couches and hand-fashioned log furnishings, with knotty wood-panel walls giving way to expansive windows. And the kitchens: fully equipped with new appliances, all utensils, and a large family-style diningroom table. Cozy fireplaces? You bet. Flat-screen TV? It's 2012! All cabins even feature a washer and dryer.
A five-minute drive from the cabins is Big Cedar Lodge, a large upscale resort with a number of dining options. The Worman House, which emphasizes local produce and free-range meats, serves an extravagant brunch on Sunday mornings, plus dinner Tuesday through Saturday, which features comfort classics as well as a few upmarket options like house-made shiitake ravioli.
And when it comes time to delve into the "lights, camera, action!" of Branson, you'll find several nearby options. Silver Dollar City, a theme park just 20 minutes from the cabins, features live productions of classic Christmas shows (It's a Wonderful Life, for example) as well as a light parade, choral arrangements, and a comedic saloon show. And that's just a small taste of the nighttime excitement in Branson; check the official calendar of shows and light up the night your way.

[quote user="DavenIII"][quote user="Morehead State"]
I've driven it about 5 or 6 times. Once by myself from Wilbraham, MA to Naples, FL when my parents moved down there and asked me to drive one of their cars for them. that was the most pleasent....BY MYSELF. I drove to Tampa with my college baseball team in two vans. That was a nightmare.
If I can talk to myself, blast my stereo and generally daydream the entire trip, I'm OK.[/quote]
It builds character!
no I know what you mean, most of the trip was ok, but as kids me my brother and sister definitely got on each others nerves pretty bad at times, arguing about someone taking up too much room etc etc.
but most of the time we just read books or played gameboys...we would always leave late at night to miss the DC traffic so a large chunk of the time was sleeping, my mom and father would switch off (90% of the time it was non-stop) later on they bought their camper so we'd pull off at a walmart and get a few hours sleep in our camper...and then stay at a KOA in the camper when not staying with the family down there.
Can you imagine you and I in a car for 20 hours? A hole would be torn in the universe.

hey everyone, i think my harddrive crashed. when i turn on my comp it doesnt laod up windows, it says that a file is missing. any idea wat to do?? :( thanks
What file does it say is missing? You also might want to check if there's a floppy disk in the drive, some computers give them boot priority.
If not, put in the system recovery CD that came with the computer. Turn it off and then back on. See if that works.
its missing a registry file (reg. file failure)
there is no floppy (doenst even haev a floppy drive) and i put in a recovery cd. still nothing.:(
sometimes you are able to go in the back way copying some code, which then allows you to use the system restore. If that doesn't work then unfortunately it's rebuild time.
let me know if you are interested and I can send you the link I used, when I got the dreaded call from my 5 year old.... to which I came home.. supper, beer, type code / copy code/ copy system restore file, reboot, use system restore all has been well since. Saved me from rebuilding the system from scratch.
You could get a cable to back up any data off the drive that you may want, that will go from IDE to USB. Then you can use another computer to get your music, pictures, and whatever else you may want to keep. If your hard drive is clicking, you could pay big bucks for some company to get the data off the hard drive, or look in to freezing your hard drive. I would google the freezing before getting started. A friend of mine froze his hard drive and got most of his data back before it crashed again, so it's worth a shot!
Good luck, sorry your compy busted.
You will either need the recovery CD and if that doesnt work you will need to reformat and reinstall Windows and everything else you had on the comp. This happened to me about a month ago - the entire registry was corrupt and I had to do the resinstall... it wasnt fun.

Introducing kids to art
Let the children direct you, follow their interests and encourage them to talk about what they see. Look, explore, respond, enjoy!
There are many ways to enjoy art. You don't need to know anything about an artwork or the artist. You can explore art with your senses, play looking games, make up stories and have fun!
Here are some suggestions to get you started.
You might select a few that appeal to you or that seem particularly suitable for a specific artwork. Or you might like to spend some time really getting to know just one or two artworks by considering a range of questions.
At the Gallery, you could look for artworks with a theme (such as those featuring people or animals) or focus on a few rooms.
Games to play
- I spy: select a detail you can see, tell others the letter it starts with and see if they can guess what it is.
- Counting: find details to count and group together.
- Storytelling: invent a story for the artwork. Imagine what happened before or after the scene that is pictured. Imagine the artworks come alive at night and invent a story about their adventures.
- Role-play: imagine what the people are saying to each other and role-play their conversation. Imagine the characters from other artworks could talk to each other too – what would they say? Role-play how the artist created the artwork. Did they work slowly or quickly? What kind of mood do you think they were in?
- Posing: pose like the people in the artwork. How long can you hold the pose?
- Memory: look closely at the artwork then turn away and try to describe in detail what you saw.
- Invent a new title for the artwork
- Who or what would you like to be in the artwork? Why?
Explore with your senses
- If you could touch the artwork, what would it feel like? Would different parts of it feel different? What would you most like to touch?
- What would you smell if you were in the artwork? Would it smell nice?
- What would the temperature be like if you were in the artwork? Would it be hot or cold?
- What would you hear if you were in the artwork? Would it be noisy or quiet?
- Is there anything to eat in the artwork? Does it look delicious?
- Imagine you could eat the artwork. What might it taste like?
- Imagine the artwork is a piece of music or a series of sounds. What might it sound like?
- Imagine the artwork is a person. What kind of person might it be? Male or female? Young or old? How might this person talk, walk, eat?
More serious fun
- You can find further suggestions for interacting with art in Looking at art.
- Our kids audio tour introduces some favourite works in the Gallery.
- Our children's trails include ideas for activities at the Gallery and for art-making at home.
- Our events for kids offer a whole range of ways to engage with art.

Retired UTSA art professor Stephen Reynolds dies
(March 14, 2007)--Stephen Reynolds, 67, a retired UTSA art faculty member and ceramics artist, died Thursday, March 8 at his home north of Boerne. His death came approximately eight months after learning he had a brain tumor, according to his wife, Daphne Reynolds.
"His death is a major loss for the art community," said Kent Rush, UTSA professor and chair of the Department of Art and Art History. "Steve's work was amazing, beautiful and poetic."

Born January 25, 1940, in Toledo, Ohio, Reynolds was dedicated to the creation of art and art education for more than 40 years. He was a UTSA professor of art and sculpture from 1977 until his retirement in 2005.
He taught most recently as an endowed chair professor at the University of Texas - Pan American in Edinburg, and also taught at Virginia Commonwealth University, University of Wisconsin, Texas Tech University, Scripts College and Odessa College.
According to a recent San Antonio Express-News article, Reynolds was an influential San Antonio ceramist known worldwide. He spent most of his life finding ways to break free of a traditional concept of ceramics and used his experience and passion to help many young artists in their creative searches.
Reynolds' last San Antonio solo shows were in 2005 at the Southwest School of Art and Craft and the Joan Grona Gallery. He exhibited last year in Portland, Ore., and Tucson, Ariz. His work is in permanent collections in Australia, Hungary and across the United States.
Reynolds was president from 1998 to 2004 of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts. He was a Fulbright Fellow in Hungary in 1991 and was one of only two U.S. ceramists invited to work in Norway's 120-year-old Porsgrunn porcelain factory. Four years ago, he was one of a few ceramic artists from North America elected to the prestigious International Academy of Ceramics in Geneva, Switzerland.

Let's talk about this so-called "Car of the Year," and my experiences with it. As I am getting older in life, I realize that I inherited a disease my dad also has: Car-Guy-itis. He and I both love cars: driving them, reading about them, talking about them, and, unfortunately, buying them. I have one very acute symptom he does not have, though: driving. A lot. In September 2000, I purchased a new 2001 Honda Civic LX. This was a great car and served its purpose well. I traded the car in July 2003 for a 2003 Honda Element EX. My Civic had 40,000 miles on it, in about two and a half years. The Element served me well, also. I began to really appreciate the "Utility" of a "Sport Utility Vehicle." The Element left my driveway in October 2005 with 60,000 miles on it (only two years old), to be replaced by the all-new, awe-inspiring 2006 Civic. With the lifestyle I had grown into, I had one great need that the Element was unable to provide for me: navigation. Between my life as an Army Reservist and my life as a musician, and, when there was time for it, my personal life, I was traveling to a great many places, many for the first time. After realizing that online mapping programs were very much flawed and offered no help to fix wrong turns, I came to the conclusion that I needed to get navigation to help me along the way. I began to look around the market, and my choices came down to the Mazda 3 and the Honda Civic. In comparing the two vehicles, they had two very important features that qualified both of them to be "my car." First, they offered a navigation system that would get me form point "A" to point "B" including stops at gas station "C" and fast food joint "D." Second, and equally as important, the trunks of both vehicles were large enough to hold my tuba.So why did I pick the Civic over the Mazda? This came down to the accessories. What the Honda had available that completely sold me on the vehicle was the XM Radio, MP3/Auxiliary Jack, the soon-to-be-released iPod connector, and convenient safety of steering wheel controls. This sealed the deal, and I went with the Civic, and I purchased the vehicle in early October 2005.For the next two months, my local Honda dealer had my Civic more than I did, in attempts to install the accessories, and then later fix them so they worked properly. This is where I am aghast at Motor Trend's choice to make the 2006 Civic the Car of the Year.My first issue, we got the car in early October. They told us none of the accessories were in, and we would have to wait two weeks. Okay – no problem. Two week later, we took the car back to have the accessories added. Well, they didn't have the bass speaker (subwoofer replacement), and the iPod connector wouldn't be out till November, we were told. Alright – that was manageable. In late October, we finally got the bass speaker. In November, we were told the iPod connector would be out in December. In December, they told us Christmas, and at New Years, they told us by the end of January. Finally, in mid-Janaury, the supply clerk at the local Honda Dealer got the iPod connector in, and we paid our $350 to have it installed. This brought our total bill for accessories to roughly $2,500 - $3,400 when you also add in the Extended Warranty. This – the first issue – is the least of my concerns. Let's get into the serious stuff now. Remember back to why I chose the Civic: The accessories & the steering wheel controls. We'll begin with a little discussion of the accessories. To support this and to illustrate my points, I have included an image of the radio screen, as seen to the right. We see in the image that I have the radio set to XM1, on preset channel #3. For purposes of not getting myself in any hot water with copyrights, I blurred out the name of the artist and song. Let's put this into perspective. Let's say I just got in the car, turned it on, and decided to change channels on the radio, using the wonderful steering wheel controls, as seen below. Pressing the "Channel Up" button on the steering wheel should take us to preset #4. Pressing the "Channel Down" button on the steering wheel should take us to preset #2. You think this is the case? If you do, you are sadly mistaken.What really happens when you press "Channel Up" is, it jumps (in this case) from preset #3 to preset #1. If you press "Channel Down," it will go to preset #6. Usually. Sometimes. Or not. Maybe it will go to preset #5 when you press "Channel Up." Sometimes it's just completely random. This is generally a problem for the first time you press the button on either of the XM preset groups (on the top row of the display, XM1 and XM2). Once you have already pressed the button once and changed the channels to whatever random preset the car decides, it will then work as expected, moving incrementally. Unless of course, you know that you want to go from preset #2 to preset #5. By pressing the "Channel Up" button three times in quick succession, you will see the cursor (the blue highlight seen above preset #3, XM Channel 21 in the picture) move from #2 to #3 to #2 to #3 to #4 to #3 to #4 to #5 to #4 and back to #5. Hopefully. Sometimes it gets confused in this process and will either stop short or go too far.That's issue number two (remember issue number one: not getting the accessories at any useful time frame). Issue number three is another involving randomness on the steering wheel. Let's check out my top picture, on radio mode "XM1." Now look at the second picture. See that button on the steering wheel labeled "Mode?" When I got in the car the first time and pressed that button, I anticipated the radio would move across the mode options from left to right. Oh how I was sadly mistaken! From where I am now, by pressing the "Mode" button, you would see the radio move in this order: "XM1," "XM2," "CDC," "AUX," "FM1," FM2," "AM," "CD," and finally "CARD." Let's simplify that. We'll give all of the modes a number, 1-9, going left to right, starting from "FM1." The order of movement would go 1-2-3-6-7-4-5-8-9. I have been driving the car for about three months now, and being as musician as mentioned earlier, I use all the various radio modes extensively. I still don't have the sequence of modes learned. I can't use the steering wheel controls to their most effective use and benefits to safety. Instead, I need to both take my eyes off the road and watch the radio as I continue to press that "Mode" button, or take my eyes and one of my hands off the wheel to reach over and manually change the mode. This may not seem like a big deal, but I bet if you talk to the NTSB, NHTSA, or any police organization, they will tell you that this will increase likelihood of an accident on the road.My next issue is this awe-inspiring iPod connector. When we spoke with our salesman and the Sales Manager at the Honda Dealer about this connector, before it was released, they told us that it would work the same way the Card Reader works: You can browse the contents of the iPod on the screen by artist, album, song title, and by playlist, and then the screen will show you the name of the artist and track, all while leaving the iPod pleasantly unattended, unlike the Auxiliary jack, where you have to control the iPod manually, just as you would if you were listening to it on headphones. When the iPod connector finally came in, two and a half months after it was supposed to be in, I was excited and took my car over right away to have it installed. Twenty four hours and $350 later, I got the car back, with a large packet of instructions (we had to request these special from the service department), and a CD-ROM. After running the CD-ROM on my computer, the Honda-TTS program added 3,110 files to the already existing 7,000 mp3s on my iPod. These 3,110 files that Honda added to my iPod were all sound files either reading letters of the alphabet in a horribly stereotypic computerized voice, or that same voice reading off the titles of each of the tracks. At this point, I very apprehensively connected the now-Honda-ready iPod to the connector in the car, and turned the car on. The "CDC" option appeared on my radio: Compact Disc Changer. To control the iPod, you have to choose one of the six discs that a CD Changer would have to change the mode by which you browse the iPod. These modes are browse by artist, album, genre, and playlist, or play randomly by album or by song. I pressed the button to Fast-Forward a track (as if it were a CD), and it began speaking to me "A," "B," "C," and so on. After I realized what it was doing, I pressed the button again, and it started reading again. I stopped it at "B," and it began playing the first song by the first artist that began with "B." I hit the button as if to skip ahead a track on the CD, and it moved to the next song by that artist. I hit the button again, and it moved back to the first song. According to the iPod MusicLink system, I had two songs by artists beginning with the letter "B." Going back and checking my music library, I actually have 619. To top this off, the only thing that was displayed on my radio display was "Artist: artist," "Song: Track 01." No song name, no artist name, no album name. Just a bad computer voice and an interface that didn't give me access to anywhere near all 7,000 songs on my iPod.A fifth problem I have had, thankfully a seldom problem, is the navigation system keeping up with me. On one occasion, I realized three miles after the fact that the navigation system froze. It showed me at the junction of two highways, whereas I was getting off of the next highway and looking for my next direction. Luckily I was near home, just going to a store I had never visited. Rather than going to this store, I drove to the Honda dealer and had them look at the navigation system frozen at the junction. As a result of the screen freezing, I was no longer able to control any of the navigation system, or the radio in any way. On another, separate occasion, the processor in the navigation system began running so slowly that by the time both the computer and I realized I missed a turn, I had also missed the next turn that was to redirect me onto the route I should have been following. It took me ten minutes and an addition 6 miles (in downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) to get back on course.A final, and comparatively minor issue I have with my 2006 Civic is the gas mileage. As I said earlier, I drive a lot. My car is four months old, and I am nearing 12,000 miles (which is the limit of the Lemon Law). In this time period, I have maxed out my gas mileage at 33.5 miles per gallon. This was burning a full tank of gas on the highway, driving 65 to 70 miles per hour the entire time. In this situation, Honda advertised to me that I would get 40 miles per gallon on their new, improved engine. Back on my 2001 Civic, I was getting 38-40 miles per gallon consistently with this number of miles, sometimes up to 43 miles per gallon.Now, we have discussed my five major issues with the 2006 Civic: the ability to acquire the accessories, the XM preset flaw, the irregularity of the Mode button, the travesty that is the iPod connector, the freezing navigation system, and the horribly low gas mileage. Through all of these problems, both my father and I stayed in very close communication with both our Honda dealer and American Honda (in California). Once we finally got the accessories on the car, and discovered the problems with the radio controls, we took the car in for service. The dealer replaced all of the components of the radio/navigation system, all on separate trips (some requiring 2-3 trips to finally get the parts in and installed correctly). The components the dealer replaced include: The head unit, the XM receiver, the radio unit, the steering wheel controls, the navigation system, and the main computer that controls the entire car. This cost Honda nearly $5,000 in parts. On one of the many occasions they had the car, my father and I jumped in another Civic – this one a coupe that had XM installed at the factory. We guessed that having the system factory-installed, it wouldn't have the same problems we had. But, we were horribly mistaken. All of the same symptoms my car exhibited were present in the coupe. The only thing we couldn't test was the iPod MusicLink connector – this was still two months before that accessory was finally released. Astounded, we decided to head over to an Accord. Surely this would work correctly. Again, we were wrong. The XM Preset switching worked properly, as that was developed in earlier models of the Accord. However, the Mode switching was also a flaw. We shared this with the service department and they were equally as surprised.Through all of our problems at the dealership, our situation eventually floated to the top of Honda's customer service system, and we were approached by Honda's highest level of Customer Service from California. We had a representative assigned to our case, and we began to communicate with him regularly – about once a week. Around early December, during one of our conversations with this Representative, we mentioned that we were considering the Lemon Law, as the dealer had five attempts at that point to fix the radio problems, and the Lemon Law only requires three failed attempts. He responded, "Sometimes we make something that doesn't work quite right." No follow-up statement, or a "here's how we're going to fix it." He just said that sometimes the cars don't work right, and that's all there is to it. He went on to say, "We're not going to help you on our own, so you should just get a lawyer." We were also in communication with the management of our dealership, too. We have a very good rapport with the dealer: our family has purchased 6 Hondas in the last five years, and in the last two years, we have sold about 10 Hondas to our family and friends through this same dealership. We would think that having a relationship as such, they would be apt to help us out to keep us loyal. On several occasions, we cited an instance in which the dealer bought back another customer's Accord for a simple rattle in the roof liner, and asked them to buy my Civic back for the several flaws we were fighting. Instead, they have hemmed and hawed for a couple months, waiting to talk to this manager and that vice-president, and waiting to hear what American Honda had to say, and eventually told us they weren't going to do anything to help us, either. On a Thursday, the representative from American Honda asked my father what it would take to keep us loyal, faithful, and happy customers. His initial suggestion was to be refunded for all the accessories – but also said we would call him back with a better answer. The following Monday, while we waited until lunchtime to call the representative (it had to be that late because of the west coast time difference), we called Alpine, who makes the navigation and radio systems for Honda. While we searched for the number, and while we were on hold, we looked at their own branded iPod connector, that works exactly how our dealer told us theirs would, and we wondered why Honda's didn't work that way. When we finally talked to the representative at Alpine, we told him of all the problems we were having with the system, and asked if they knew about it and if they were working on it. He told us they were not working on anything from Honda, as they built the system exactly to Honda's specifications, and the system was essentially complete at that point. They built it to Honda's specifications. Take a second now to go back and review the issues I was having with the XM radio, Mode switching, and the iPod. Exactly to Honda's specifications. Aghast at what Honda was satisfied with for the radio/navigation system, we decided to try to call our representative in California, and we got through to him. We told him we were responding to his question of what he would need to do to keep us loyal and happy. Before we could get out our first option, he reiterated the fact that Honda was not going to buy the car back from us. Rather put off, but not surprised, we gave him our first suggestion: buy back the accessories we purchased, for a total of $3,400. He told us that wasn't an option, because the navigation system (which we included in that number), was factory installed, so he couldn't do anything with that. So, we gave him our next suggestion: paying half of the monthly car payment, each month, until they resolved the problem. This was a very down-to-earth suggestion; the main reasons I purchased the car (see my fourth paragraph) were the flaws we were trying to resolve. In fixing those problems, I would be left with the car I believed I was purchasing, and at that point, I would not be opposed to paying the full monthly payment. Until then, I feel I am being cheated by paying Honda $360 per month to continue to work on their research and development, and to have the opportunity to drive a flawed product. He again said this was not a possibility. Our last suggestion was getting a free long-term warranty – we already had this, so essentially, we would be getting reimbursed for the warranty. He responded that he didn't think this was possible, but he would talk to a few people and see if he could work out any part of that. So, his attempt at keeping us happy customers and loyal to Honda was possibly taking care of our fourth option. I must ask you: consider the above scenario. Is this Civic worthy of "Car of the Year?" Is a product released to the market with this many major failed features worthy of that title over so many other brands and models tested? If the answer to that question is "Yes," then I would not want to even see how horrible and stripped-down such vehicles as the BMW 3 series, the Audi A3, the Mercedes CLS and R classes, the Volkswagen Jetta and Passat, the Infiniti, the Lexuses, and all the other contenders in the contest. At the recent Pennsylvania Auto and Boat Show, I had the opportunity to sit in many of those cars and sample their electronic systems, and I can say that all those I tried put the Honda Civic to shame. Were Motor Trend to equip the Civic you tested with the XM Radio in addition to the Navigation System, you too would have seen these same problems that I have been fighting for four months – and counting. Is Honda worthy of any kind of "standing ovation," as said by Angus MacKenzie? Is a company that won't even offer solutions to its extremely loyal, and now dissatisfied customers worthy of any praise? At this point, we have now spent more money on my Honda Civic than the cost of an entry-level Camry, Accord, or Mazda 6 – all cars in a higher class than the Civic. A $25,000 Honda Civic with an electronic system that has more faults than merits. I ask you – I beg you to reconsider the Civic as the Car of the Year. There are many, many more reputable cars out there with equipment and systems that live up to the expected standards of a "Car of the Year."
Wow, I said the Civic shouldn't have been COTY just because I didn't like the looks and it was a FWD 4banger...this sheds a whole new light on it. I am truly sorry about all the trouble you've had...and by the way, welcome to the forums.
Short reply to long (well articulated) post: Never, ever, buy the first generation of ANYTHING. Always wait at least a season to get the bugs worked out. But they base COTY on what the car is, how it's improved, and why it's so good...not its' reliability.
Is that really true? I didn't know they don't factor in how things work. And I always knew Honda was talking crap about getting better gas milage in a heavier, more powerful, larger motor car. I really don't agree with what you said about how MT determins their COTY since if the same thing was a Cobalt with all the same available options and qoute unqoute better MPG and it was flawed in many of the options that made the car COTY you would say that MT was the worst automotive source known to man.
Hell of a post. I am considering a Civic SI as a new everyday car, however I have'nt fallen victim to the XM/Sirius satallite radio gimmicks. The FCC is currently going after both to ensure they are censored and safe for the ears of dear little children that should never be listening to half the programming anyway. And paying a monthly fee is crazy IMO. I just stick to CDs, MP3s, and the regular radio. I t does suck that they have given you essentially nothing for the hardships you have endured though. I think you deserve another Civic without the options you had originally wanted. Go get an aftermarket GPS like Tom Tom. And as for the SUB and expensive stereo I assure you that if you purchased comparable performance equipment( head unit, sub, speakers) and had it installed a professional shop you would have spent a lot less and had much better quality and sound. I used to run parts for my dads shop and I once saw some *** who wanted a 6 disc cd changer for his expoler pay $600 for the factory Ford cd changer. At the time he could have had one of better performance for about $300. Sorry for your luck but this does happen on brand new models like Clothio said, so maybe you should have got another Element and added the accesories as I have recommended and been much better off. Good Luck.
------------ Come on Big 3, catch up faster, please!
defective airbags nice...
man that does suck. what i think is even worse is that the dealership won't give you any help at all. what i would suggest is that you consult with a lawyer and make sure that you know all of your options from a legal standpoint. that way if you get stonewalled by either the dealership or honda again, you know exactly what you are entitled to.on a complete side note (and of course off topic from the thread), to chadspeed:
Quote: The FCC is currently going after both to ensure they are censored and safe for the ears of dear little children that should never be listening to half the programming anyway. And paying a monthly fee is crazy IMO. I just stick to CDs, MP3s, and the regular radio.
I'll be quite honest - I don't know all the criteria that MT uses in its decision on Car of the Year. However, on a daily basis in my every day life as a music educator, I'm faced with a decision: Do I teach them what is necessary to fulfill obligations, or do I teach them what the material at hand is, regardless of if it goes beyond the minimum. In simpler terms, do I do the bare minimum, or do I do it right. I think the COTY should be the same way. Honda may have indeed made improvements over previous models, and new, better accessories, which make it shine above the rest. But what good is a defective product? They might have well not included it to begin with.
Look to consumer reports for that sort of information. MT tests the driving dynamics and livability of a vehicle. They don't have the car, except in the case of the one year test,--which btw, the COTY enters every year--long enough to encounter reliability problems.
Quote:let me ask you one thing, do you have cable or satelite? and the fcc will be able to censor xm or sirus as soon as they are able to do the same to hbo, starz, and the movies and cd's that you purchase at the local store.
Quote: The FCC is currently going after both to ensure they are censored and safe for the ears of dear little children that should never be listening to half the programming anyway. And paying a monthly fee is crazy IMO. I just stick to CDs, MP3s, and the regular radio.
Quote:so maybe you should have got another Element and added the accesories as I have recommended and been much better off. Good Luck.
tell me about it. heaven forbid that we listen to what ever we want! hmmmm, heaven forbid...isn't that their slogan?
Quote:Wow, I said the Civic shouldn't have been COTY just because I didn't like the looks and it was a FWD 4banger...this sheds a whole new light on it. I am truly sorry about all the trouble you've had...and by the way, welcome to the forums.
all i'm going to say is good luck and i hope you get what you want when all the dust settles.
Quote:man that does suck. what i think is even worse is that the dealership won't give you any help at all. what i would suggest is that you consult with a lawyer and make sure that you know all of your options from a legal standpoint. that way if you get stonewalled by either the dealership or honda again, you know exactly what you are entitled to.on a complete side note (and of course off topic from the thread), to chadspeed: Quote: The FCC is currently going after both to ensure they are censored and safe for the ears of dear little children that should never be listening to half the programming anyway. And paying a monthly fee is crazy IMO. I just stick to CDs, MP3s, and the regular radio. let me ask you one thing, do you have cable or satelite? and the fcc will be able to censor xm or sirus as soon as they are able to do the same to hbo, starz, and the movies and cd's that you purchase at the local store. the reason that they can censor network tv and terresterial radio is because they are free and available to anyone.

Arc'teryx is based in North Vancouver, BC, a part of Canada that is renowned for having the backcountry as its backyard. One of the most spectacular and privileged parts of the world, the outdoors are just outside our backdoor: pristine, intact, populated with wildlife and freely available via public access. Our goal is to create products that live as we do, responsibly in tune with this environment, both locally and globally. Doing our part means knowing that our goods are manufactured with the least impact possible and that the recreational lands where our passions play out will be available for generations to come.
Our Design Philosophy and the Environment
The prolonged lifespan of one piece of premium equipment represents a substantially reduced total amount of materials used, and energy consumed in manufacture and distribution. We build high quality product that retains its performance properties and aesthetic appeal for many years. This approach has been the cornerstone of our design philosophy and continues to be the measure against which we set all our choices.
Social Responsibility
The greatest impact we can have is through hands-on programs that directly involve our manufacturing process, our products or the communities of our staff and their families.
Three guiding principles determine the programs we consider as valid social investments.
- Driving excess from the supply chain via donations, repurposing or similar initiatives — Birds Nest Project
- Extending the lifespan of products through warranty service: We donate to local outdoor education programs and not for profit organizations that support our customers where they live, work and play
- Maintaining recreational environments and advocating for public access/stewardship:
Our contact for all Social Responsibility Programs and donations is Joanne Mayzes: email@example.com
Best Practices
Direct knowledge of our material sources means that we know the origin of what we choose, from the supplier to its delivery at our factories. Our sourcing team dedicates extensive research into staying informed and continually searches for the best materials available.
As a global manufacturer, we are responsible under and aware of local laws and regulations governing our products. Arc'teryx participates in the Sustainability Working Group that is part of the Outdoor Industry Association. Under the Amer Group, we follow a shared restricted substances list that addresses known regulated or banned substances, plus a few others of very high concern.
Down InsulationArc'teryx down comes from small farms in Eastern Europe. We have taken steps to ensure that our down sources are certified non-force fed and non-live pluck.
Our supplier, Allied Feather and Down, uses a third party supply chain auditor, the International Down and Feather Laboratory (IDFL.com) to validate their sourcing practice claims. In addition, we work with the outdoor industry as a whole to look specifically at the issue of down sourcing. The European Outdoor Group and the OIA Sustainability Working Group, in which we are a non-voting member, have banded together with the goal of identifying potential systems of traceability for the down suppliers.
Allied Feather and Down has worked in the outdoor market since the 1980s and supplies many of the biggest brands in the industry. They are a Bluesign® system partner. Our down is cleaned and processed at their North American facility in California.
After Sales Service
Proper care and repairs on equipment is the best method of sustainable practice. A product's lifetime of performance relies on regular cleaning and correct use. Accidents do happen however. Arc'teryx offers repair services worldwide, to keep products going and keep them out of landfills. In North America, we use our local factory; in Europe we have a facility in Switzerland; and in Asia we work with our distributors to provide skilled repairs that will protect your product's technical integrity.
For many people, their favourite pack or jacket is equivalent to an old friend, one they want to keep around for as long as possible. We agree. In 2012, our after sales service repaired over 10,000 products. Those that can't be repaired to customer satisfaction often find homes through donations.
Industry Initiatives
- Outdoor Industry Association (OIA) Sustainability Working Group
- Sustainability Index
- Materials Traceability Working Group
- Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC)
- American Apparel & Footwear Association (AAFA)
On a Local Level
Canada is one of the most spectacular and privileged parts of the world. Recycling stations are in every neighbourhood, school, business and office. Commuter incentives exist to promote public transit; bike lanes and car pool lanes promote reduced emissions and greater traffic efficiency. Beyond these efforts, the construction of new buildings is an opportunity to implement greater change. Arc'teryx has recently moved into new office space, with input on the process to reduce and improve our environmental footprint.
New office space includes recycled floor finishing and furniture fabrics in an open office setting that uses less materials. MesoOptics lighting fixtures distribute more light per fixture and allow better lighting control. Skylights were used wherever possible to provide natural light.
Outside the building are electric car charging stations, rain water collection on the roof and water retention gardens to capture storm water. It is the policy of the company to encourage the use of transit or self-propelled commuting, so employees are provided with a fully equipped bike room and showers. A heat exchanger on waste water reduces the energy required to provide hot water.

VINTON — A solid start put Goldencents, and his jockey Kevin Krigger, in front, but the horse and rider needed just as strong a finish to win the $1 million Delta Downs Jackpot on Saturday.
Goldencents was a wire-to-wire winner, holding off late surges by Bern Identity and Mylute to beat Bern Identity by 3/4 lengths. The race holds Kentucky Derby implications.
"When I got to the final turn, I quote my wife who always tells me to 'move,' " Krigger said. "I played the race like it came. The more I asked, the more he gave."
Goldencents, trained by Doug O'Neill, beat Bern Identity by 3/4 lengths, running 1 1/16 miles in 1:44.89. The winner paid $7.20, $3.60 and $3.40 in the field of nine 2-year-olds.
Bern Identity returned $3 and $2.60, and Mylute paid $5.40 to show.
Goldencents, the morning-line 5-2 favorite, earned 10 in the "Road to the Kentucky Derby" series. Touch Magic earned four points, Mylute received two, and Hightail one.
The $1 million Jackpot has sent six horses to the Kentucky Derby, including Sabercat last year.
In 2004, Closing Argument finished second in the Jackpot and went on to finish second in the Derby.
Goldencents, partially owned by Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino's RAP Racing, was making his third career start.
"This is the best 2-year-old I have ever sat on," Krigger said. "To come into this type of race with this type of horse, I have been waiting my entire career for a horse like this. This horse is very professional. He's never rank and never does anything wrong."
Goldencents finished second at the Champagne Stakes at Belmont Park in October after winning his debut at Del Mar in September.
"I don't know the exact path, but we will probably look somewhere at Santa Anita after the first of the year," O'Neill said. "Maybe the Bob Lewis Stakes. This horse has been in New York and Louisiana in two of his three starts, so he travels great."
Goldencents led out of the gate, followed by Heaven's Runway, which finished seventh. Goldencents, though, did not falter, holding off late surges by both Bern and Mylute.
"When I heard the announcer give the early fractions I thought, 'Uh oh we are going a little too quick,' but we all have so much faith in this colt," O'Neill said. "Kevin kept him out of trouble and didn't fight him and it worked out perfect."
Bern, who was a 9-5 favorite by post time, and Mylute both made moves from the outside in the final turn but couldn't catch Goldencents.
The Jackpot was the seventh of 11 races run at Delta on Saturday. Rose to Gold won the $500,000 Delta Downs Princess race, run prior to the jackpot.
Rose to Gold was toward the front of the pack on the backstretch and moved inside on the final turn to win beat Touch Magic by 1/2 a length, running the 1-mile course in 1:39.38.
Rose to gold returned $7.60, $5.60 and $4.60, while Touch Magic paid $17.40 and $11.40 and Sittin At the Bar paid $6.80 to show.
Nine 2-year-old fillies ran in the stakes race.

text: I am going into my 3rd year of beekeeping and have a question about replacing the queen in one of my 3 hives. I started with 2 italian queens/packages my first year, one of which swarmed (and I caught to make my 3rd hive). The new queen that was made from that hive as a result of the swarm has turned out to be quite a bit meaner than I want to work with. This hive however is also my biggest hive and a super honey producer compared to the other two. Assuming this hive makes it through the winter, I am trying to decide how I should go about replacing her in the spring. I think it will be difficult to find her to "pinch" her due to the shear number of bees in that colony (and how angry they are whenever I go in that hive). I am comtemplating just letting them swarm in the spring to get rid of her and hoping I get a better resultant queen from her after she is gone. What are the chances that I will get a more docile queen if it comes from her? I am worried that any new queen from her eggs would be just as mean if not meaner. Is this true? Any other suggestions?

The Destination
The Ozark Mountains' rolling hills and verdant valleys make a visit to Southern Missouri's River Valley Region feel like stepping into a storybook. Nearby Mark Twain National Forest is a fish story waiting to happen with some of the best angling—and mountain biking—in the state, and the rocky glades of Taum Sauk Mountain generate tall tales aplenty atop the state's tallest waterfall. History buffs can brush up on the Civil War battles that raged through the Arcadia Valley at Fort Davidson, and the pachyderm-shaped rock formations at Elephant Rocks State Park are a site you'll never forget.
The Digs
Housed in historic Bolch Mansion, Rachel's Bed & Breakfast is the oldest residence in the tiny Ozarks town of Annapolis that's still standing after the Tri-State Tornado of 1925. The Arts and Craft-style home boasts stunning garden ponds and picturesque verandas consists of five luxury suites, each with fireplaces and queen- or king-size canopy beds. Dinner highlights include toasted ravioli—a St. Louis tradition—and baked salmon, fished fresh from nearby waterways. Dine by candlelight accompanied by a pianist or violinist, or chow down on a specialty pizza served in your room after a day of sight seeing.
"This is a place of peace and harmony. The rooms are lovely, but not at all like staying at a hotel—they are warm, unique, and each room is different. I have never stayed away from home and been so comfortable and relaxed... The area is breathtaking."-- TripAdvisor

Reviews for this host's other properties
Perfect location, very friendly owner, and most importantly very nice apartment. If there will be something to krisieren only tidbits: Internet was a bit slow and did not go all the lamps / light switch.
Perfekte Lage, sehr freundlicher Vermieter und am wichtigsten sehr schönes Apartment. Falls es etwas zu krisieren gibt dann nur Winzigkeiten: Internet war etwas langsam und nicht alle Lampen/Lichtschalter gingen.
Sr. Alfredo was very friendly, and on time on the appointed meeting place. The apartment was very clean, modern, and also colorful. The location is perfect. Central but quiet location, you need just a few steps from bustling La Rambla, the Gothic Old Town / Placa Reial and the market hall Mercat de la Boqueria. The only drawback: There was a teapot! So again anytime!
Sr. Alfredo war sehr freundlich, und pünktlich am verabredeten Treffpunkt. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber, außerdem modern und farbenfroh eingerichtet. Die Lage ist perfekt. Zentral und trotzdem ruhig gelegen, braucht man nur wenige Schritte zur belebten Rambla, der gothischen Altstadt/Placa Reial und der Markthalle Mercat de la Boqueria.
Einziges Manko: Es fehlte eine Teekanne!
Also: Immer wieder gerne!
Great apartment, Great host !.
The apartment is big, clean, comfortable and located in a quite street and building, just 1 min' from La ramblas street.
Enjoyed our stay very much and appriciate the host's wonderfull hospitality and support. most recomended :). Defenitly will come back next year.
The apartment was clean and very nice. The location is perfect, although the street is very noisy. The host is very nice and helpful.
The apartment is located in the heart of Barcelona and is very well maintained and beautiful. For 4 people it might be a little tight for the 2 of us it was perfect, however. The host is very friendly, we had expected for the appointed check-in time at the front door, all shown and explained. We are very happy and can only recommend this apartment!
Die Wohnung liegt im Herzen von Barcelona und ist sehr gepflegt und wunderschön. Für 4 Personen könnte es etwas eng werden, für uns 2 war es allerdings ideal. Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich, hatte uns zur ausgemachten Check-In-Zeit an der Haustür erwartet, alles gezeigt und erklärt. Wir sind sehr zufrieden und können dieses Apartment nur weiter empfehlen!
great location within twenty meters from Las Ramblas. quiet accommodation and excellent availability from the owner. also good cleaning. to recommend.
ottima posizione a venti metri dall rambla.
alloggio silenzioso e ottima disponibilita da parte del proprietario. buona anche la pulizia. da consigliare.
Ram Blas streets and metro close, it was too easy. Resolved immediately uncomfortable information about you for good. Haejusigo kindly ^ ^ house clean and food to be eaten in the environment I'm good. Put bread and water and ate for ~ Very good ~!
람블라스 거리와 지하철역이 가까워서 너무 편리했습니다.
그리고 불편한 사항에 대해서 바로 해결해주시고 친절하게 해주셔서 좋았구요^^
집도 깔끔하고 음식을 해 먹을 수 있는 환경도 좋았구요.
물하고 빵도 갖다놔주셔서 잘 먹었습니다~ Very good~!
Lovely apartment, amazing location. Highly recommended for couples and families. Great base for exploring Barcelona
Pretty neat and completely flat. Heart of Barcelona within walking distance of wonderful tapas bars. Nice and friendly host, which unfortunately do not speak English. Only real downside are the neighbors, who habitually around three hours hard to talk, to cry, to let their dog barking and / or watching TV, which is clearly audible in the bedroom.
Mooi verzorgde en volledig appartement. Hartje Barcelona op loopafstand van prachtige tapasbarretjes. Aardige en vriendelijke gastheer, welke helaas geen Engels spreekt. Enige echte minpunt zijn de buren, die de gewoonte hebben rond een uur of drie hard te praten, te huilen, hun hond te laten blaffen en/of TV te kijken, hetgeen duidelijk hoorbaar is op de slaapkamer.
Very nice apartment, centrally located, perfect for a city break. Unfortunately, a little noisy on the small road. Very helpful host.
Sehr schönes Appartment, zentral gelegen, perfekt für eine Städtereise. Leider etwas laut auf der kleinen Strasse.
Sehr hilfsbereiter Gastgeber.

It's Showtime Headed to Spain Again on November 12th - Fight Card + Details
- Written by Rian Scalia
After a very successful Spanish debut back in June, It's Showtime is set to once again hold an event in Spain on November 12th. This time, It's Showtime will stray away from the mainland and hold the event in Tenerife. Tenerife is the largest and most populous of the Canary Islands.
It's a good strategic move on behalf of It's Showtime, as kickboxing has quite strong support in the Canaries. Local fighters like Loren Javier Jorge and Moises Ruibal have strong followings that will most definitely draw interest towards the event. It's Showtime utilized Spanish fighters for their Madrid show back in June, and they had quite good showings. The atmosphere at the Madrid event was among the best that It's Showtime has had at their events and I'd expect this one to rival that.
Most notably on the card, the pound for pound best kickboxer in the world, Giorgio Petrosyan returns to action after once again injuring his hand against Hinata. Petrosyan will take on the hometown favorite Zeben Diaz. Diaz took a win over Yavuz Kayabasi at It's Showtime's Madrid event in June. A month after, Diaz fought Warren Stevelmans and lost on a questionable referee stoppage. Diaz isn't really the ideal opponent for Petrosyan, but it looks like the fight is more of a tune up for him, with all due respect to Zeben Diaz (Petrosyan is just that good.). There were rumors that Petrosyan would've faced the top 70kg fighter in Spain, Abraham Roqueni at this event but it turns out they were just that - rumors. A win for Giorgio opens up the possibility of a fight against the winner of the upcoming Fast & Furious 70MAX Tournament on It's Showtime's January 28th card in Amsterdam.
Other names on the card include It's Showtime 95MAX World Champ, Danyo Ilunga who faces Loren Javier Jorge in a title fight. Loren fought Tyrone Spong at Super Heavyweight but -95kg is much more suited to him. Ilunga may be forced to pull out of a planned tournament in Germany in October because of this. Another It's Showtime titlist on the card is Javier Hernandez at 61kg, who fights former champ Sergio Wielzen in a non title bout. To round out the card, Moises Ruibal fights Amir Zeyada and Murthel Groenhart takes on Santi Gonzales.
Here's the full fight card so far:
-70kg: Zeben Diaz vs Giorgio Petrosyan
-85kg: Moises Ruibal vs Amir Zeyada
-70kg: Jonay Risco vs William Diender
-95kg: Loren Javier Jorge vs Danyo Ilunga (IT'S SHOWTIME 95MAX World Title)
-61kg: Sergio Wielzen vs Javier Hernandez
TBA: Santi Gonzales vs Murthel Groenhart
The full release from It's Showtime's website can be viewed here.
