Thursday 13th January 2010
Stating the obvious seems to be a good place to start and for me it is three-fold. Firstly it is impossible to describe last night as anything other than a bad result. Secondly, although I really don't want to take anything away from our hosts, for reasons that are difficult to understand we simply didn't turn up. Lastly of course, with 90 minutes (or more) still to play at home, at least we can cling on to the fact it is only half-time.
Personally I was really looking forward to the day. If as fans we can't look at a semi-final with eager anticipation there is something seriously wrong. Throw in the fact our particular travelling party had a designated driver and thoroughly intended to enjoy Ipswich's finest wares for a few hours pre-match, all in all there was plenty to whet the appetite.
With reports that many Gooners experienced travel problems on the night, our earlier start seemed an even better idea and with kick-off approaching everything had gone totally to plan so far.
To be honest, that's pretty much where the wheels fell off! We created very little throughout, our quick passing game was non existent, control and accuracy poor and to top it all off, a simple ball over the top and a good finish sees us going into the second leg a goal behind.
Admittedly I never felt at any stage that it would be a comfortable night. The way players somewhat strangely react when a new manager is at the helm and they are all fighting for their places has been seen many times before and this alone dictated it would be a difficult game.
When your own performance is below par however, we can offer no excuses and that is exactly what happened last night.
With a second chance to get things right the packed schedule means we must put that on the backburner and quickly move on and be prepared for yet another fixture that always proves tricky. A London derby against the Hammers is a game that has gone either way on many occasions down the years. Buoyed by their own Carling Cup first leg victory we head to Upton Park with it all to do.
The first of four massive games in two weeks that could arguably make or break our domestic season.
Come on you Gunners!

I spent Tuesday and Wednesday at Forrester's European Customer Experience Forum in London, which was based on the theme of Outside In, Forrester's new book. One of the most interesting sessions I attended was 'The Customer Centric Bank' from Gustavo Vinacua, Innovation Center Director at BBVA's Centro de Innovación in Madrid.
Over the past decade, BBVA has worked hard to become more customer centric and match its offerings to its customers' needs. Given the pace of technology change, customers' rising expectations and the digital disruption those forces cause, innovation is a critical part of the role of eBusiness and channel strategy executives. I thought I would share a few of Gustavo's insights here for those of you who couldn't attend. BBVA has become systematically innovative, launching a continuous succession of innovations many of which were a first in Spain, in Europe or in the world, such as:

Cesc Fabregas insists that Arsenal will go Stamford Bridge on Sunday with the sole intention of winning.
Just one win in five games has seen Arsène Wenger's side drop 10 points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea and Fabregas knows how crucial a victory in West London could be for his side.
Chelsea boast the division's best home defensive record, with just three goals conceded in their seven outings at the Bridge, but the new Gunners captain is certain that neither side will hold back in the final third.
"Our target is to go there and win," said Fabregas. "We need to get some points back.
"Arsenal never go for a draw and a club like Chelsea will be the same as us. Every time I have played against them they have gone forward and tried to gain victory. We will expect it will be the same on Sunday.
"They have been playing really well at home. I haven't watched a lot of the games but the times I have seen them they have played some very, very good stuff with quick football and good combinations. I respect them a lot but will we see."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Yet another Democrat: Nope, we don't have a spending problem
posted at 4:07 pm on February 14, 2013 by Guy Benson
It's official, guys. Between the president, Pelosi, Hoyer and now Harkin, this nonsense has become an explicit article of faith among members of America's pro-science, reality-based political party:
First of all, I want to disagree with those who say we have a spending problem. Everyone keeps saying we have a spending problem. And when they talk about that, it's like there's an assumption that somehow we as a nation are broke. We can't afford these things any longer. We're too broke to invest in education and housing and things like that. Well look at it this way, we're the richest nation in the history of the world. We are now the richest nation in the world. We have the highest per capita income of any major nation. That kind of begs the question, doesn't it? If we're so rich, why are we so broke? Is it a spending problem? No."
If you're interested in facts and figures, I've meticulously debunked this fallacy for the umpteenth time over at Townhall. But let's set aside economic arguments for a moment. In order to justify their endless "investments," Democrats have evidently decided to embrace a virulent and deeply unpopular strain of fiscal denialism. How unpopular?
During recent budget negotiations, Obama reportedly said he doesn't believe the government has a spending problem. Most voters — 83 percent — disagree. That includes most Republicans (97 percent), independents (87 percent) and Democrats (69 percent). In addition, out of 13 issues tested, more voters are "extremely" concerned about government spending than any other issue. Moreover, nearly all voters are either extremely (32 percent) or very concerned (52 percent) about spending.
Refusing to acknowledge this patently obvious problem is risky business for the Left. The president extracted his pound of flesh on tax increases in the fiscal cliff resolution; the public is now strongly behind the idea of prioritizing spending cuts. With a gross national debt that exceeds our GDP, Americans intuitively understand that the government is spending too much and that the debt is getting out of hand. Democrats are brazenly telling the public not to believe their own lying eyes. Republicans should jump all over this with aggressive counter-messaging: Basically, "if they can't even see the problem, how can they be trusted to fix it?" Run ads featuring a short montage of all these Democrats serially denying a problem that 83 percent of the public recognizes as real. Embed the dizzying national debt clock at the bottom of the screen. Point out that the debt was $8.6 trillion when Democrats took over Congress in 2007, and that it's approaching $16.6 trillion today. The president is already in a precarious position on deficit-related issues. Why not turn up the heat by exploiting that vulnerability and laying the groundwork for a central theme of the 2014 campaign? It's good politics and good policy.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
the name "blueprint" is misleading.
we have rules here as to what you can market as a rebuilt engine
i believe the op is referring to blueprint engines, a company name that rebuilds engines.
i won't give my opinion of the product produced but its easy to find plenty of reviews of them with a search here or Google.
at any rate, it depends on who you are getting it from. many of the build rebuild houses picked up the trend and started calling any rebuild a crate engine. being no industry standard for the term, its hard to prove they are being misleading or lying.
as had been said already, go with a reputable local shop, because even the all new gm motors can have problems. (look up the 383 threads on here)
My experience with share by this quote from Thirdgen:
I just want to second the opinion of junk blueprint engines. Had valve train geometry issues from day one, blow by, rediculous oil consumption( 5 qts between 2500 mile oil changes, or 1 quart every 15 passes at the strip). Always had funny bottom end noise and oil leaks everywhere. Thankfully it grenaded one month before warranty ended and they honored warranty. Got it back and sold it on cl before it ever came out of the crate and went LS with the money ( plus some). Customer service was good and very polite, just do not trust their products in the least.
I dont understand how a crate engine could have worn valve guides?
I see a lot of crate engines come with all brand new parts,including blocks. I understand some are better than others. I also understand price counts too.(no free lunch) My friend John Graham purchased a crate 540 race engine and it came to his shop exactly as advertised.He races in Calgary and is a well know 9.90 racer.
Maybe the economy engines are more of a problem? I tell people that a stock engine is not that much cheaper than high performance. A new cam is the same price if its small or large,new springs are the same price,etc,,, a square block is the same price for stock as race. I expect a g note on machining and I balance all but the cheapest engines.
Blueprint engine quality
I hate to be bah humbug here but I would really question the workmanship of the Blueprint engines. I would hate to have folks go through what I went through with the last two 383 TBI engines that I received from them Both within 2000 miles were sent back both averaging about a quart of oil every 400 miles. It was quite obvious what the problem was you could wiggle the valves in the valve guides. The staff there was very unhelpful and kept running me through all these bogus diagnostic tests. In the end I learned my lesson after having to pay all that freight back and forth to just go with a local and reputable machine shop. Although I did get one replacement engine it was just as bad as the first after I told them they are going to have the same issues if they sell engines with heads that have .007 play between valve and valve guide. Unfortunately on the second engine I just got fed up and put Trick flow heads until i flattened the cam
Original 350 or crate?
I would make a list of the machine shops in your area. You can visit them and talk to the owner. Tell him what you want done. Ask questions like what is done to the block getting it back into shape. Ask for references on engine builds he done. Don't forget most important the price he will charge. If you want to use the factory intake and carburetor be sure to tell him. Tell him you want about one stage above stock rebuild. This way it will give you a little more horsepower. Like Vinnie said you want the block cleaned, decked, bored and honed the block with torque plates installed aligned honed. Once you see the price you the machine shop gives you which will be around $ 5000. You will probably want to buy 355 ci 310hp BluePrint engine. GM 355 Engine Specs (BP35511CTC1) | BluePrint Engines. IMHO just like anything else if you don't do as much as you can you can expect to pay the high cost they want. That BluePrint 355/310hp sounds perfect for your 69 truck.
If the truck drives nice as it was stock,why not chase the free horse power?
first,there is no such thing as "free" horse power,lol.
What I think would make you happy is to completely rebuild and blue pring your engine with stock or stock replacement parts,,,but,,,go the extra mile with a perfect job of assembly.
when the block is bored 030,also get the block align honed,squared and decked as close to perfect as possible.Buy an after market,"blue print" replacement cam. This is a "race cam" but it is based on original equipment specifications. So it will idle the same,sound the same but have a little better breathing due to slightly more aggressive ramps and a lot less variation in cam lobes(just more accurate grind with precision in mind) balance the engine,custom hand fit each piston and ring set,resurface and quality valve grind.
This will net you all of the factory rated power and a little more. should last 300k plus.
when its running a custom tune will be in order
Fbird will explain spark advance and fine tuning of the carb(hope its a quadra jet)
|Father & Son
|Thanks for the feed back. I'm pretty new to old trucks & hot rodding but always impressed with folks willingness to share their knowledge. While money is always a consideration, I am mostly interested in comparative cost and performance between rebuilding what I have and buying a crate. I also have a 50 Chevy truck in which my son & I opted for a blueprint 383. It was hard to beat the pan to carb deals when replacing the 216. In my 69 daily driver however, I have a good running 350 w/145k original miles that would be fine as is if it didn't leak oil from several places. I need to learn how to rebuild an engine but don't have time at present. I am either going to have it rebuilt or buy a crate. It will still be a daily driver so I don't need HP but more HP is always fun if I don't look at the gas gauge, right? Since my truck is pretty much intact as it came from the factory I lean toward keeping the original engine unless I can improve things by going with a later yr block. What I'm hearing so far is that all things considered, my 69 2 pc seal block should be as good as any. Is this correct or are there benefits to a later model 350? Assuming I go w/original block, what do I check/look for when comparing shops and work to be done?
|You didnt say how much more power you need? cheap and high horse power should not be used in the same sentence.
Original 350 or crate
I will give you a list of parts if you want to use your block. The easiest way to rebuild an engine is to buy a complete rotating assembly. SB Chevy 383 Scat Rotating Assembly Kit, 3.750 Stroke 6.000 Rods 9.8:1 Hypereutectic Keith Black Dish Pistons - 383 Kits with 6.0' Rods - 9000 Series Kits - Small Block Chevy - Scat Rotating Assembly kits - Rotating Assemblies | CNC Motorsports | Car. This kit includes a new crankshaft, pistons, rods, rings, and rod and main bearings. It is internally balanced by CNC Motorsports then shipped to you. Other things you need to purchase is oil pump and pickup, gasket kit, harmonic balancer, flexplate, and timing chain gear set. Camshaft: Summit Racing® Cam and Lifter Kits SUM-K1103 - SummitRacing.com. Call Summit Racing for matching valve spring kit. Take the block to a machine shop to have it dipped, bored, honed, new freeze plugs, cam bearings, new oil gallery plugs, and zero deck the block. Have valve spring kit installed on heads with a valve job included. Another suggestion you could add up the cost of this rebuild. If it is near $3000 look at this crate engine. GM 383 Engine Specs (BP38313CT1) | BluePrint Engines.
|Father & Son
Original 350 or crate?
I have a 69 C20 with the original 350 ci/400 turbo. The 350 runs good but needs freshening up. I prefer to stay with the original 350 but may want to add HP (via 383?), have heard post the 86 350 is superior and crate engines are fairly inexpensive. What are the pros & cons?

Council of Europe Anti-Racism Commission to prepare report on Belgium
Strasbourg, 25 March 2013 - A delegation of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) visited Belgium from 11 to 15 March 2013 as the first step in the preparation of a monitoring report. During its visit, ECRI´s delegation gathered information on legislation, hate speech, violence, integration policies, LGBT questions and other issues.
The delegation held meetings in Brussels, Antwerp, Liège and Molenbeek with representatives of the Senate, federal-government and independent administrative authorities, the regions, communities and some municipalities, as well as NGOs.
Following this visit, ECRI will adopt a report to be published in 2014, in which it will make a fresh set of recommendations on measures to be taken by the authorities to address racism, discrimination, xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance in the country. Among these, two will be revisited in two years' time as part of an interim follow-up procedure.
In its 2009 report, ECRI highlighted, inter alia, the following concerns: shortcomings in the system of collecting data on the application of criminal provisions against racism; the obligatory dimension of the integration programme; and the lack of a sufficient number of sites for travellers.
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, citizenship, colour, religion and language (racial discrimination), as well as xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

What's In That Chart?
In Maryland, the issue of patient charts and confidentiality is a heated topic...it's even made it to the state legislature.
I don't write the most exciting of notes. The first time I meet with a patient, I take a full and detailed history and I write the whole time, so my notes essentially say what patient says, ending with a mental status examine, then my impression, diagnosis, and a brief treatment plan. After that, I don't take notes during the session. And I don't generally write about the detailed content of therapy sessions. I may leave it as "Patient talked about activities and family matters." If I change a medication, I say why, especially if it wouldn't be obvious. If I do anything risky or unconventional, I write about why I'm choosing to do this, why other options aren't sufficient, and that I've discussed it with the patient. If I'm worried about someone, I may discuss what measures I've taken to insure their safety. I don't write process notes about the psychotherapy, I don't put in very personal information that isn't directly related to treatment decisions. I view the chart as a legal document and as a clinical reference-- if the patient tells me 3 years later that some medication worked great, I can look up why we stopped a medication that worked great.
Okay, so confidentiality. No one asks for my notes. Rare requests for information from physicians, but a treatment summary does a much better job. No patient has ever asked to see my chart. And if they did, I don't imagine it would be a problem (or a very interesting read).
What do other shrinks write about?

vs Dallas Wednesday October 13th 7:00 pm Chat is open!!!! http://www.pistonsforum.com/playoff-chat/
The game is being broadcast again on ATDHE.Net - Watch Free Live Sports TV radio only. 29-29 with 9 mins left in the second qtr..
Mavs lead at halftime 48-46 in a battle of three pointers in the closing minutes.
Dunno why those radio streams don't work in Sweden. I'm following the game thru stats on NBA.com. Looks like T-Mac will sit the whole game tonight again.
You know you're a diehard fan if you track down a web site that is broadcasting radio only of a preseason game.
I actually had this website bookmarked from last year and the show TV shows and all sporting events either via video or radio. I am not going to give a play by play as I have my laptop turned low as I am watching Undercovers on the real tube. Score still close with about 6 mins left in the third Mavs up 61-56
Pistons lose out to the Mavs in Grand Rapids tonight 101-96. It was a close game most of the way until the Mavs stretched it to 9 point lead with about 6 mins left in the game and the Pistons had to play catch up from there, but couldn't get any stops despite Ben Gordons 13 point 4th qtr heroics. Both teams relied on the long ball with the Pistons hitting 12 of 30 and the Mavs hitting 9 of 22. Unfortunately what ever Piston that checking Steve Novak dared him to shoot the three and he made them pay hitting 6 of 10 and scored 11 pts in the 4th. Austin Daye had another good game leading the Piston in scoring with 16 points. The Piston back up guards of Bynum and Gordon each chipped in 15 pts. As good as the backup backcourt was and Daye, the Pistons were killed in the paint 38-20....as rhe coach suffering through injuries and age will have need to shore up that front court as they transition into the actual season. 2-2 and still searching for an identity....
Nice to see Daye keeping it up. Thanks for the recap, Dre.
Monroe's weak rebounding is concerning me. Not the kind of big man we needed IMO. Hopefully he'll make up for it with dazzling passes and make me a believer. I'm just naturally biased toward rebounding and shot blocking bigs.
Had to miss another game due to college. Just read the log, a few comments on the game. Not much, but in all, it did not seem the Pistons did too badly tonight. Got to question all the small ball though. Rip at small forward. Daye always at power forward, never at guard where he might do some real damage. We did play a small forward backup this time, Summers. Thats progress. Of note, Bynum was the minutes leader. Our shortest player. He did hit some 3's. I see both him and Stuck trying to extend their ranges. Are we short of bigs as some have suggested on some of the boards I read? Only preseason, and some guys are playing light minutes. Can't tell much from that. Looking at the foul situation, we had tons more minutes we could have gotten from Monroe, Ben Wallace, and JMAX. Not to mention Summers could have gotten some power forward minutes too. We just are choosing to play Daye at power forward, simple as that. Dallas sat half their fire power for this game. No TMAC yet again. Diogu remains at 6 minutes floor time for the preseason, just 2 minutes behind TMAC. Somebody is getting cut soon. Wilcox ain't played minute one yet.
Sounds like a good idea for a t-shirt. I knew they would be throwing Daye at PF. More Rip at SF. Probably Prince at PF soon to follow. Actually forgot this game was on.
I do not think that we must read too much from preseason games. coaches want to see how X player reacts on Y situation and that is it. Identity and all this rap - this is for ready teams.
Remember that the Lions were undefeated in preseason the year that they went 0-16 in the regular season.

Last weekend I bought some new patio furniture. I had a price on what I thought I wanted but then I started asking questions. What if instead of paying for shipping costs, I went to the store to pick it up? What if I really didn't need the glider love seat? What if I assembled it myself? What if I really didn't need the teak armrests? And suddenly the price was very different.
And that reminded me of some benchmark pricing stunts that I have read about lately. Recently, I have seen benchmark prices for hardware used in comparisons that in fact are partial prices of the benchmark total price, do not show the benchmark primary metrics, and have nothing at all to do with the benchmark results.
It is wonderful to have, for example, the TPC-C pricing metrics for comparisons within the TPC-C benchmark. Price/performance is very important here. But taking a partial price and applying it to any analysis is just wrong. (and by the way illegal) As we all know, benchmark configurations are "special." Benchmark configurations can use a lot of expensive memory. Benchmark configurations can use a lot of cores. Benchmark configurations can use interesting discounts. And benchmark configurations are not a good way to reflect the price you are truly going to pay.
I had to wait an hour at the store so they could find the furniture. They had to break down the box and put the pieces one by one into my car. And it took 2 days to put the furniture together. But it was all worth it for the price.

Women's FA Cup finalists ready for action
Laura Harvey and England International Steph Houghton
With just under two weeks to go until The FA Women's Cup sponsored by E.ON 2011 Final between Arsenal and Bristol Academy, representatives of both clubs travelled to Coventry, the host city, on a charm offensive.
Gunners' boss Laura Harvey and England International Steph Houghton joined up with Bristol duo Ann-Marie Heatherson and one time Gunner Corinne Yorston, to publicise The Final and to familiarise themselves with the surroundings at Coventry City's Ricoh Arena. They were also joined by X Factor finalist Paije Richardson, who'll be providing the half-time entertainment on the day.
The Gunners will be looking to lift the prestigious trophy for an eleventh time, with Bristol in search of their first win in the competition. The two sides have met in the FA Women's Cup three times before, each time at the Semi-Final stage - and each time Arsenal have emerged victorious, en route to glory.
The Arsenal Ladies will know they're in for a tough game come Saturday thee 21st May though, with 'the Vixens' boasting an array of international talent in their side. And After defeat by Everton in last season's Final, Houghton says she and her team mates are hungrier than ever for success:
"There was a lot of talk of revenge when we played Everton in the Fifth Round and that Final defeat really spurred all the girls on," she said. "I know they do not want to go through that losing feeling again. We just need to make sure we are prepared on the day. We are taking nothing for granted."

Immediate Family
About Ethelred, Lay Abbot of Dunkeld
ETHELRED (-before [1107], bur [St Andrew´s Church, Kilremont]). He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him fifth of the sons[376]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun names "Edward, Edmund, Ethelred, Edgar, Alexander and…David" as the sons of King Malcolm and his wife, adding in a later passage that Ethelred "as some assert…lies buried in St Andrew´s church at Kilremont"[377]. Lay abbot of Dunkeld. "Edelradus…filius Malcolmi Regis Scotiæ Abbas de Dunkeldense et insuper Comes de Fyf" made donations to the Keledei of Loch Leven by undated charter, witnessed by "duo fratres Hedelradi…David et Alexander…Constantini comitis de Fyf et Nesse et Cormac filii Macbeath et Malnethte filii Beollani sacerdotum de Abyrnethyn et Mallebride alterius sacerdotis"[378].
See Also: The Peerage - [http://www.thepeerage.com/p10474.htm]
Ethelred (Edelred mac Maíl Coluim or Æþelræd Margotsson) was the son of King Máel Coluim III and his wife Margaret, the third oldest of the latter and the probable sixth oldest of the former. He took his name, almost certainly, from Margaret's great-grandfather King Æþelræd Unræd, or Ethelred the Unready. Ethelred had a multicultural upbringing in the pious household of his Gaelic father and Anglo-Hungarian mother. He had an ecclesiastical career and avoided a political career, perhaps because of some disability, being passed over for the succession. His career probably brought him the prestigious abbacy of Dunkeld, however he died as a Cluniac monk in Somerset [this is an error for his older brother Edmund, who was forced into a monastery after being made to abdicate]. He is often thought to have held the office Mormaer of Fife, but this is almost certainly a mistake [Wikipedia may be wrong in the opposite direction here]. The source is a notitia of a grant to the Céli Dé monks of Loch Leven, contained within the Register of the Priory of St Andrews, which says:
Edelradus vir venerandae memoriae filius Malcolmi Regis Scotiae, Abbas de Dunkeldense et insuper Comes de Fyf. [1]
Translated, this is "Ethelred" or "Edelred, man of venerable memory, son of King Máel Coluim of Scotland, Abbot of Dunkeld and also Mormaer of Fife". However, the same notitia records a number of witnesses, among whom are the brothers of Ethelred, David and Alexander; after the last two comes Constantinus Comes de Fyf, i.e. Causantín, the actual Mormaer of Fife. The contradiction has been explained by Bannerman. He argues that the translator of Register of the Priory of St Andrews (a collection of Latin translations of earlier Gaelic documents) had been thrown off by the use of a singular Gaelic verb for a joint grant (i.e. where the verb had two subjects), common in Gaelic charters. As a result, the translator omitted the Mormaer. At any rate, it is clear that Ethelred was never[?] a Mormaer of Fife, since Causantín is attested in other sources.

Note: FHL - "The Book of McKee," pg 271 - pedigree from William Skene, D.C.L., LL.D., Historiographer-Royal of Scotland, in "Celtic Scotland," Edinburgh 1890; this shows the history of Scotland as being the Irish Kings; also from "The Mackays of Strathnaver," pg 305a (also in Book of McKee); "The Family of Alexander McCoy 929.273 M137mce states: The fourth [son] was Ethelred who was appointed by his father to be the abbot of Dunkeld, hence also the Primate of the Scottish Catholic Church founded by St. Columba in the 6th century A.D...Elthelred did [marry] so; his wife was the daughter of Lulach, a halfbreed Lord of Moray in extreme northern Scotland. His Saxon name, Ethelred, was unacceptable in the Highlands so he shortened it to Eth which was pronounced very much like the Celtic Aodha. Ethelred's grandson, one Iye MacEth, became the first chief of Clan MacKay. The clan was named for him and one should expect it to be MacIye. In fact it is for the only acceptable pronunciation of MacKay in Scotland is MacKie, like Pie or Iye." 1 [This is GARBAGE.]
Edelrad [son of Malcolm III], apparently Earl of Fife, who fl. early 12th century and was also Abbot of Dunkeld; possibly the same person as Eth. [Burke's Peerage, p. 2538] Burke's Peerage, page 1058, on the Earldom of Fife, previous creations: Fife, constituted one of the Mormaerships into which much of pre-1st Millennium Scotland was divided. By the beginning of the 12th century the former Mormaer of Fife was beginning to be called Earl of Fife. The first of the new designation seems tohave been Beth, who as either Earl of Fife or Moray (more probably the former) is recorded as having been active in 1115. (The historic figure Macbeth was son of a Mormaer of Moray, and since "Mac" means "son of" there may be a connection.) However, another figure referred to as Earl of Fife about the same time, that is to say during the reign of David I (reigned 1124-1153), is a shadowy personage called in contemporary documents either "Ed" or "Head" and identified by [some] leading authorities with Edelread, son of Malcolm III (reigned 1058-93). Yet a third Earl of Fife appears to have existed in the person of Constantine, who died in the late 1120's. (It is possible that "Ed/Head" was really Earl of Forthreve. The first person to hold the Earldom of Fife on a hereditary basis may well have been Gillemicel MacDuff, who died about the mid-1130's. Certainly the title remained in his family, passing almost always from father to son, till 1353, when the 8th Earl's only child, Elizabeth or Isabel, became Countess of Fife. She married four times, each of her husbands being known as Earl of Fife in right of his wife. She died without issue, having made over the Earldom to her second husband's brother Robert Stewart, Earl of Menteith, her 2nd husband and he being second and third sons respectively of Robert II. Beth, who, as "Beth, Comes" was witness to the charter of Scone in 1115, may not improbably be considered as Earl of Fife, though possibly as Earl of Moray. There appears also to have been one "Ed [Edelrad?] Comes" or "Head, Comes" in charters temp. David I, who probably was Edelrad (son of Malcolm III), Abbot of Dunkeld, and, according to some accounts, Earl of Fife. This "Ed, Comes" was contemporary with Earl Beth and with Earl Constantine, his successor. [Complete Peerage V:372]
Note: Burke is not infallible, and earlier editions contained some serious errors.
King Duncan I & his wife, Sibylla of Northumbria, had:
1. MALCOLM (1031-killed in battle near Alnwick, Northumberland 13 Nov 1093, buried Tynemouth, later transferred to Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, and later still to Escorial, Madrid). He succeeded in 1058 as MALCOLM III "Caennmor/Bighead" King of Scotland. Cawley's Medlands
The 12th century Cronica Regum Scottorum names "Malcolaim filii Donnchada" in one of its lists[307]. The Chronicon of Marianus Scottus records that "Moelcol…filius Donchael" succeeded Lulach in 1058[308]. [Florence of Worcester records that "dux Northhymbrorum Siwardus" defeated "rege Scottorum Macbeotha" in battle, dated to 1054, and installed "Malcolmum regis Cumbrorum filium" in his place[309]. The Annales Dunelmenses record that "Siwardus" put "Macbeth" to flight in 1054 and installed "Malcolmum rege" in the following year[310]. It is not clear that these two accounts refer to the future King Malcolm III: it is uncertain why King Malcolm would be called "regis Cumbrorum filium".] The Annals of Tigernach record that "Lulach rí Alban" was killed by "Mael-Coluimb, son of Donnchad" in 1058[311]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun records that Malcolm recaptured his kingdom with the help of "Siward Earl of Northumberland" and killed "Machabeus" 5 Dec 1056[312]. He succeeded in 1058 as MALCOLM III "Caennmor/Bighead" King of Scotland, crowned 25 Apr 1058 at Scone Abbey, Perthshire. Duncan cites sources which demonstrate that this nickname was first applied to King Malcolm III in the 13th century[313]. He suggests[314] that it was originally applied to King Malcolm IV who, he asserts, suffered from Paget's disease, involving a deformation of the bones particularly observable in the skull, and was later misapplied to King Malcolm III. King Malcolm supported the claim to the English crown of Edgar ætheling, whose sister he had married, and led plundering raids into England. Florence of Worcester records that he did homage to William I King of England at Abernethy in Aug 1072[315]. The same source records that King Malcolm invaded Northumberland in 1091, but did fealty to Willam II King of England after peace was negotiated between the two kings[316]. Florence of Worcester records that "rex Scottorum Malcolmus et primogenitus filius suus Eadwardus" were killed in battle in Northumbria "die S Bricii" [13 Nov] by the army of "Rotberti Northymbrorum comitis"[317]. William of Malmesbury records that he was killed, with his son Edward, by Morael of Bamborough, steward of Robert Mowbray Earl of Northumberland, while leading a raid into England[318]. The Annals of Ulster record that "Mael Coluim son of Donnchad, over-king of Scotland, and Edward his son, were killed by the French in Inber Alda in England"[319]. Cawley's Medlands
[m] [firstly] ([before 1058]) Ingiborg. The identity of the mother of King Malcolm's sons Duncan and Donald is uncertain. The absence of any reference to her in Scottish sources is best explained if her relationship with the king ended before his accession in 1058. However, this is not totally consistent with the estimated birth dates of her sons as shown below. It should be noted that King Duncan II, in his charter dated 1093, makes no reference to his mother, which implies that his father's relationship with her may have been short-lived and informal. Orkneyinga Saga records that "Ingibjorg the Earls´-Mother" (Ingibjörg Finnsdatter, widow of Thorfinn "the Black" Jarl of Orkney and Caithness, daughter of Finn Arnisson [later Jarl of Halland in Denmark]) married "Malcolm King of Scots, known as Long-neck" and that "their son was Duncan, King of Scots, father of William"[320]. There must be considerable doubt about whether this can be correct. Ingibjörg's [first] husband died in [1060/65]. King Malcolm's marriage to Queen Margaret is dated to 1070, three years after her arrival at the Scottish court. Although this provides sufficient time after the death of her first husband for the king to have married Ingebjörg, and for Ingebjörg to have died, the chronology for the birth of two sons would be tight. In addition, it is unlikely that either of these sons was born after [1065], as explained further below. If the king had really married Ingibjörg during this time, and if she had given birth to two sons, the absence of any reference to her in either Scottish or English sources is all the more surprising. It is possible that King Malcolm's marriage to Ingibjörg (if it did take place) was more Danico, implying concubinage rather than regular marriage, but this does not change the chronological difficulties. The one puzzle which remains, if the Saga is not correct, is why the author would have fabricated this detail. Cawley's Medlands
King Malcolm III & Ingiborg had two children:
1. DUNCAN ([1060/65]-murdered Monthechim/Mondynes, Kincardineshire 12 Nov 1094, bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife). William of Malmesbury names Duncan as illegitimate son of King Malcolm, when recording that he was knighted by William II King of England[327]. There is no indication of the identity of Duncan's mother, as explained above. His birth date is estimated on the assumption that he was a child when given as a hostage in 1072, which precludes his being the son of Queen Margaret. It is possible that he was illegitimate, although there is no indication that he was thereby excluded from succession to the throne. "Dunecanus fili regii Malcolum constans hereditarie rex Scotie" donated property to the monks of St Cuthbert for the souls of his father, "fratri mei, uxore mea et infans mei" (all unnamed), by charter dated 1093, witnessed by "Eadgari, [Etheread], Aceard, Ulf, Malcolub[328], Hormer, Heming, Ælfric, Teodbold, Earnulf"[329]. The copy in Early Scottish Charters lists the witnesses in a different order, and adds "Grentonis…Vinget"[330]. He was given as a hostage to William I King of England at Abernethy in 1072 to guarantee his father's good behaviour[331]. The Annals of Ulster record that the "French went into Scotland and brought away the son of the king of Scotland as hostage" in 1072[332], which presumably refers to Duncan as any of his half-brothers (if then born) would have been infants at the time. He was kept in Normandy. Florence of Worcester records that Robert III "Curthose" Duke of Normandy released "Ulfam Haroldi quondam regis Anglorum filium, Dunechaldumque regis Scottorum Malcolmi filium" from custody after his father's death in Sep 1087, knighted them and allowed them to leave Normandy[333]. He joined William II King of England and remained at his court in England[334]. Florence of Worcester records that Duncan served in the army of King William II, who supported his bid to depose his uncle, and to whom Duncan swore fealty before leaving for Scotland[335]. He deposed his uncle in 1094 and proclaimed himself DUNCAN II King of Scotland[336]. Florence of Worcester records that "Dufenaldum regis Malcolmi fratrem" was elected king after his brother's death but that "filius regis Malcolmi Dunechain" expelled "patruum suum Dufenaldum"[337]. The Annals of Inisfallen record that "Domnall son of Donnchadh" killed "Donnchadh son of Mael Coluim king of Alba" in 1094 and "took the kingship of Alba"[338]. The Annals of Ulster record that "Donnchad son of Mael Coluim, king of Scotland, was treacherously killed by his own brothers Domnall and Edmond" in 1094[339]. William of Malmesbury records that King Duncan was "murdered by the wickedness of his uncle Donald"[340]. Florence of Worcester records that "Scotti regem…Dunechan" was killed in [1094][341]. The Chronicle of the Picts and Scots dated 1251 records that "Donechat mac Malcolm" was killed "a Malpeder Mackcolm comite de Merns in Monacheden" through the treachery of "Donald mac Donehat"[342]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun records that "Duncan, King Malcolm´s illegitimate son" was "slain at Monthechin by the Earl of Mernys…Malpetri, in Scottish, Malpedir, through the wiles of his uncle Donald" as was buried "in the island of Iona"[343]. Cawley's Medlands
m ([1090]) ETHELREDA of Northumberland, daughter of GOSPATRICK Earl of Northumberland & his wife --- (bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife). The Cronicon Cumbriæ records that "Waldevus filius comitis Cospatricii" enfeoffed "Waldeve filio Gileminii" with property and "Ethreda sorore sua"[344]. The Cronicon Cumbriæ records that "Ethreda sorore Waldevi patris sui" married "Doncani comes de Murrayse" and that their son "Willielmus" succeeded her nephew "Alanus filius Waldevi"[345]. It is assumed that Duncan was Ethelreda´s first husband and Waltheof her second husband. She married secondly Waltheof. Cawley's Medlands
King Duncan II & his wife had one child:
a) WILLIAM FitzDuncan ([1091/94]-[1153/54]). His parentage is confirmed by the Chronicle of John of Fordun (Continuator - Annals) which records the rebellion of his son "Macwilliam whose real name was Donald Bane…son of William son of Duncan the bastard" against King William[346]. That William was his father's only child is shown by King Duncan's charter dated to 1093 referring to "infans mei". As the actual date of the charter is more likely to be 1094, this leaves little time for the birth of any more children before the king's murder. "…Willelmo nepote comitis…" witnessed the charter dated to [1120] under which "David comes filius Malcolmi Regis Scottorum" founded the abbey of Selkirk[347]. Lord of Skipton and Craven, by right of his [second] wife. Cawley's Medlands
2. DONALD ([1060/65]-killed in battle 1085). There is no indication of the name of Donald's mother. His birth date is estimated on the assumption that he was an adult when killed, and old enough to have had a son himself at that time, but this precludes his being the son of Queen Margaret. It is possible that he was illegitimate. The Annals of Ulster record that "Domnall son of Mael Coluim, king of Scotland…ended [his] life unhappily" in 1085[348]. Cawley's Medlands
m ---. The name of Donald's wife is not known.
Donald & his wife had [one possible child]:
a) LADHMANN (-killed in battle 1116). The Annals of Ulster record that "Ladhmann son of Domnall, grandson of the king of Scotland, was killed by the men of Moray"[349]. It is not known with certainty to whom this refers, but a son of Donald, son of King Malcolm, is the most likely possibility.] Cawley's Medlands
m [secondly] (Dunfermline Abbey 1070) MARGARET of England, daughter of EDWARD Ætheling of England & his wife Agatha --- ([in Hungary] [1046/53]-Edinburgh Castle 16 Nov 1093, bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, transferred to Escorial, Madrid, her head bur Jesuit College, Douai). Although Margaret's birth is often placed in [1045/46][321], a later birth would be more consistent with the "German" theory of her mother's origin (as discussed in the document ANGLO-SAXON KINGS). Margaret's birth as late as 1053 would still be consistent with her having given birth to four children before her daughter Edith/Matilda (later wife of Henry I King of England), whose birth is estimated to have taken place in [1079/80]. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that Margaret left England with her mother in Summer 1067 and found refuge at the court of Malcolm King of Scotland[322]. Florence of Worcester records that "clitone Eadgaro et matre sua Agatha duabusque sororibus suis Margareta et Christina" left England for Scotland, in a passage which deals with events in mid-1068[323]. Florence of Worcester records that "regina Scottorum Margareta" died from grief after learning of the death of her husband and oldest son[324]. The Annals of Ulster record that "his queen Margaret…died of sorrow for him within nine days" after her husband was killed in battle[325]. She was canonised in 1250, her feast day in Scotland is 16 Nov[326]. Cawley's Medlands
King Malcolm III & his second wife, Margaret, had eight children[350]:
3. EDWARD (-Edwardsisle, near Jedburgh 16 Nov 1093, bur Tynemouth St Albans). Florence of Worcester records that "rex Scottorum Malcolmus et primogenitus filius suus Eadwardus" were killed in battle in Northumbria "die S Bricii" [13 Nov] by the army of "Rotberti Northymbrorum comitis"[351]. He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him first of the sons[352]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun names "Edward, Edmund, Ethelred, Edgar, Alexander and…David" as the sons of King Malcolm and his wife[353]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun records that, according to "William", "Edmund…was privy to his brother Duncan´s death, having…bargained with his uncle [Donald] for half the kingdom" but was captured and "kept in fetters for ever"[354]. He died from wounds received at the battle of Alnwick during a raid on England led by his father. The Annals of Ulster record that "Mael Coluim son of Donnchad, over-king of Scotland, and Edward his son, were killed by the French in Inber Alda in England"[355]. Matthew Paris reports that the remains of "regis Scotorum Malcolmi et Edwardi filii sui" were found at Tynemouth, commenting that both had been killed fighting "Robertus de Mumbrai"[356]. Cawley's Medlands
4. EDMUND (-after 1097, bur [Montacute]). He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him second of the sons[357]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun names "Edward, Edmund, Ethelred, Edgar, Alexander and…David" as the sons of King Malcolm and his wife, adding in a later passage that Edmund "was buried at Montacute in England"[358]. He succeeded in 1094 as EDMUND joint King of Scotland, jointly with his uncle King Donald III "Bane", ruling south of the Forth/Clyde. He was deposed in 1097 by his brother Edgar, and became a monk at Montacute Abbey. Edmund is not mentioned either by Orderic Vitalis in his brief account of the usurpation of King Donald "Bane"[359], or by Florence of Worcester in his account of the deposition of King Donald in 1097[360]. If Edmund was older than his brother Edgar, it is not clear why their uncle Edgar Ætheling, who led the English army which deposed their uncle, would have supported the accession of Edgar in place of Edmund. The Annals of Ulster record that he was involved in the killing of his half-brother King Duncan[361]. William of Malmesbury records that "Edmund was the only degenerate son of Margaret", that he "[partook] in his uncle Donald's crime and…had been accessory to his brother's death", was "doomed to perpetual imprisonment", and "on his near approach of death, ordered himself to be buried in his chains"[362]. The 12th century Cronica Regum Scottorum records that "Edmundus" was buried "apud Montem Acutum in…cella Cluniacensi"[363]. Cawley's Medlands
5. EDGAR ([1074]-[Dundee or Edinburgh Castle] 6 Jan 1107, bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife). He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him third of the sons[364]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun names "Edward, Edmund, Ethelred, Edgar, Alexander and…David" as the sons of King Malcolm and his wife[365]. He succeeded in 1097 as EDGAR King of Scotland. Florence of Worcester records that "clitorem Eadgarum" led an army to Scotland in [1097] to place "consobrinum suum Eadgarum Malcolmi regis filium" on the Scottish throne after expelling "patruo suo Dufenaldo"[366]. The reign of Edgar is ignored by Orderic Vitalis, who says that Alexander succeeded when King Donald was deposed[367]. "Edgarus filius Malcolmi Regis Scottorum" made grants for the souls of "fratrum meorum Doncani et Edwardi" by charter dated 30 Aug 1095, subscribed by "Egeri regis, Alexandri fratri eius, Manyanium, Agulfi, filii Doncani, Eyluerti, filii Eghe Omani, Uhtredi, filii Magdufe, Constantini, Rodberti de humet, Ætele, A. gulfi, Alimoldi filii sui, David"[368]. The precise dating of this charter and the unusual list of subscribers suggest that it may be spurious. "Edgarus…Rex Scottorum" made grants for the souls of "Malcolmi patris nostri et Margaretæ matris nostræ…ac Edwardi et Duncani fratrum nostrorum" by charter dated 1095[369]. Robert of Torigny records the death in 1107 of "Edgarus rex Scotiæ"[370]. Florence of Worcester records the death "VIII Id Jan" in [1107] of "Eadgarus rex Scottorum"[371]. The Chronicle of the Picts and Scots dated 1251 records that "Edgar mac Malcolm" reigned for 9 years, died "in Dunedin", and was buried "in Dumferline"[372]. Cawley's Medlands
6. ALEXANDER ([1077/78]-Stirling Castle 23, 25 or 27 Apr 1124, bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife). He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him fourth of the sons[373]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun names "Edward, Edmund, Ethelred, Edgar, Alexander and…David" as the sons of King Malcolm and his wife[374]. Robert of Torigny records that "Alexander frater eius" succeeded in 1107 on the death of "Edgarus rex Scotiæ"[375]. He succeeded his brother in 1107 as ALEXANDER I "the Fierce" King of Scotland. Florence of Worcester records that "Alexanderfrater eius" succeeded his brother King Edgar in [1107][376]. The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records the marriage "VII Kal Mai" [1124] of "Alexander rex Scottorum"[377]. "Alexander…rex Scottorum filius regis Malcolmi et regine Margerete et…Sibilla regina Scottorum filia Henrici regis Anglie" reformed Scone Abbey by charter dated to [1114/15], witnessed by "Alexander nepos regis Alexandri, Beth comes, Gospatricius Dolfini, Mallus comes, Madach comes, Rothri comes, Gartnach comes, Dufagan comes, Willelmus frater regine, Edwardus constabularius, Gospatricius filius Walthef, Ufieth Alfricus pincerna"[378]. The Chronicle of the Picts and Scots dated 1251 records that "Alexander" reigned for 17 years and 3 months, died "in Crasleth", and was buried "in Dumferline"[379].
m (before [1114/15]) SIBYL, illegitimate daughter of HENRY I King of England & his mistress [---/Sibyl Corbet] (-Island of the Women, Loch Tay, Perthshire 12/13 Jul 1122, bur Island of the Women, Loch Tay). William of Malmesbury records the marriage of Alexander to the unnamed illegitimate daughter of King Henry, but adds "there was…some defect about the lady either in correctness of manners or elegance of person"[380], which appears to imply mental retardation. "Alexander…rex Scottorum filius regis Malcolmi et regine Margerete et…Sibilla regina Scottorum filia Henrici regis Anglie" reformed Scone Abbey by charter dated to [1114/15][381]. Her name is confirmed by various charters, including the charter dated to [1120] under which "Alexander…Rex Scottorum filius Regis Malcolmi et Reginæ Margaretæ et…Sibilla regina Scottorum filia Henrici regis Angliæ" made grants[382]. Considering the date of her marriage, it is unlikely that she was born much later than [1095]. The Complete Peerage[383] suggests that she was the daughter of Sibyl Corbet, both because of her name and also because of the possible co-identity between "…Willelmo fratre reginæ…", who witnessed the charter dated 1124 under which "Alexander…Rex Scottorum" granted jurisdiction to the prior of Scone[384], and "…Willielmo fratre meo…" who witnessed the charter dated to [1163/75] under which "Reginaldus, Henrici Regis filius, comes Cornubiæ" granted property to "Willielmo de Boterell, filio Aliziæ Corbet, materteræ meæ"[385]. However, this co-identity is not ideal from a chronological point of view. William, brother of Renaud Earl of Cornwall, died after 1187. If he was the same person as the brother of Sibyl Queen of Scotland, he could only have been a child when he subscribed the Scottish charters in which he is named. In addition, as noted in the document ENGLAND KINGS, it is possible that William, brother of Earl Renaud, may have been his uterine brother, in which case it is unlikely that he would have been chosen to accompany the queen to Scotland. Another factor is that the birth of Herbert FitzHerbert, son of Sibyl Corbet by her marriage, is estimated to [1125/35] (see the document UNTITLED ENGLISH NOBILITY). This means that he could only have been Sibyl´s half-brother if she had been a young girl at the time of her marriage. On the other hand, "Robert Corbet" witnessed charters in Scotland which are dated to late in the reign of King Alexander and the early years of the reign of his brother King David (see UNTITLED ENGLISH NOBILITY). If Robert Corbet was Queen Sibyl´s maternal grandfather or her maternal uncle, this could account for his presence at the Scottish court at the time. The Extracta ex Cronicis Scocie records the death in 1122 "apud Lochtay cellam canonicorum de Scona" of "Sibilla…regine Scocie uxor regis Alexandri, filia Henrici Beuclerk regis Anglie"[386]. Cawley's Medlands
King Alexander I had one illegitimate son by an unknown mistress:
a) MALCOLM ([1105/15]-after 1158). Orderic Vitalis names Malcolm as bastard son of King Alexander[387]. Robert of Torigny records that "Aragois comes Morefie cum Melcolmo notho filio Alexandri fratri regis David" invaded Scotland in 1130[388]. same person as …? MALCOLM MacHeth (-23 Oct 1168[389]). Duncan suggests that Malcolm, son of King Alexander I, and Malcolm MacHeth were two different persons, the latter being the son of "Aed" or "Heth" who witnessed two charters in the early years of the reign of King David I[390]. He was reconciled with King Malcolm IV in 1157. Malcolm MacHeth was created Earl of Ross in 1162 or before[391]. Cawley's Medlands
7. ETHELRED (-before [1107], bur [St Andrew´s Church, Kilremont]). He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him fifth of the sons[392]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun names "Edward, Edmund, Ethelred, Edgar, Alexander and…David" as the sons of King Malcolm and his wife, adding in a later passage that Ethelred "as some assert…lies buried in St Andrew´s church at Kilremont"[393]. Lay abbot of Dunkeld. "Edelradus…filius Malcolmi Regis Scotiæ Abbas de Dunkeldense et insuper Comes de Fyf" made donations to the Keledei of Loch Leven by undated charter, witnessed by "duo fratres Hedelradi…David et Alexander…Constantini comitis de Fyf et Nesse et Cormac filii Macbeath et Malnethte filii Beollani sacerdotum de Abyrnethyn et Mallebride alterius sacerdotis"[394]. Cawley's Medlands
8. EADGYTH (1079-1 Jun 1118). Orderic Vitalis records that their mother sent Eadgyth and her sister Mary to be brought up by their maternal aunt Christina, nun at Romsey Abbey[395]. Florence of Worcester records the marriage of King Henry and "regis Scottorum Malcolmi et Margaretæ reginæ filiam Mahtildem" and her coronation as queen in a passage dealing with events in late 1100[396]. She adopted the name MATILDA on her marriage. Crowned Queen Consort of England 11 or 14 Nov 1100. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "Kal Mai" of "MatildisAnglorum regina"[397]. The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records the death "Kal Mai " at Westminster of "Mahthildis regina Anglorum", and her burial at Westminster Abbey[398].
m (11 Nov 1100) as his first wife, HENRY I "Beauclerc" King of England, son of WILLIAM I "the Conqueror" King of England & his wife Mathilde de Flandre (Selby, Yorkshire Sep 1068-Saint-Denis le Ferment, Forêt d'Angers near Rouen 1/2 Dec 1135, bur Reading Abbey, Berkshire). Cawley's Medlands
9. DAVID ([1080]-Carlisle 24 May 1153, bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife). He is named, and his parentage given, by Roger of Hoveden, who lists him as the sixth son of his parents[399]. He succeeded his brother in 1124 as DAVID I King of Scotland. Cawley's Medlands
10. MARY (-31 May 1116 or 18 Apr 1118, bur Bermondsey Priory). Orderic Vitalis records that their mother sent Mary and her sister Eadgyth to be brought up by their maternal aunt Christina, nun at Romsey Abbey[400]. Florence of Worcester records that Henry I King of England arranged the marriage of "Mariam reginæ sororem" and "Eustatio Bononensium comiti" in [1102][401]. Her marriage is also recorded by Orderic Vitalis, who also names her daughter[402]. The Genealogica comitum Buloniensium records that "Eustachius, frater Balduini regis Iheruslame" married "Mariam filiam regis Scotiæ"[403]. The 12th century Cronica Regum Scottorum records the death "II Kal Jun" in 1116 of "Maria…comitissa" and her burial "apud Bermundseiam"[404]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun records that "Mary countess of Bouillon" died in "the third year before her sister´s death"[405].
m (1102) EUSTACHE III Comte de Boulogne, son of EUSTACHE [II] "Gernobadatus" Comte de Boulogne and Lens & his second wife Ida of Lotharingia (-after 1125). Cawley's Medlands
This person is not mentioned in Burke's Peerage, which has Gillemichael a son of "Edelrad, apparently Earl of Fife, who flourished in the early 12th century and was also Abbot of Dunkeld; possibly the same person as Eth who fathered Gillemichael".Heth Aethelred is probably the Edelrad and Eth mentioned by Burke's Peerage. However several internet lines have Duffagan or Duff between Eth and Gillemichael and would explain the "MacDuff" name of subsequent generations. Justin Swanstrom writes that "Several of Moncrieffe's books on Scottish clans call him Duff MacEth, Earl of Fife." Sounds good to me.
Name: Duff MacEth, ABT 1078 - ?, <- 44 93-> , [14]
Birth: ABT 1078 at Methil; Fifeshire; Scotland
Gillimichael MacDuff ABT 1098 - BEF JUL 1136
Ghillechriost Dufugan Angus ABT 1094 - ?
There is mystery surrounding the identities of the early holders of the Earldom of Fife and it is by no means certain that (for example) Gillemichael (shown below as the 3rd Earl) was in fact descended from Dufagan (shown below as the 1st Earl). Some web sites report the old suggestion that Dufagan was son of MacDuff, ie. grandson of King Duff (or Dubh), but this is rejected by most serious genealogists simply because MacDuff is thought to have never existed.
Dufagan is the predecessor of Constantine as Earl of Fife. It is not known if Dufagan was actually the father of Constantine. He is presumed to be Constantine's father based solely on the succession of the earldom.
Stirnet.com reports that Dufagan is claimed to be a grandson of King Duff by his son MacDuff, but this is "rejected by most serious genealogists simply because MacDuff is thought to have never existed."
Dufagan was also known as "Beth" (= "Beodhe" in Gaelic). King Duff did have a grandson (by Kenneth) named Beodhe of whom little is known -- this could provide the legitimate link to make Dufagan/Beth=Beodhe the grandson of King Duff without any fictional MacDuff.
"Dufagan" may = Dubh + Eoghan = "Black Hugh"

Although his grandfather Crinan was Abbot of Dunkeld without having to take Holy Orders, by this time the Church was starting to crack down on such irregular arrangements. Also, it seems that Ethelred's vocation was very real - he took no part in the succession wars that followed his father's death (no primary or even secondary accounts of his having anything to do with *any* of it, and it was extremely messy), was never considered to be in the line of succession (passed over for his younger(?) brother Edgar), and is said to have died a Cluniac monk circa 1098, or perhaps as late as c. 1106. (Source for "Cluniac monk" is secondary at best and may be due to confusion with his older brother Edmund, who was forced into a monastery after being deposed in 1097. "Royal Dunfermline" http://www.royaldunfermline.com/ cites a burial date for Ethelred of 1098 in one place, 1105 in another.)
Considering how very religious Margaret of Wessex was (she was canonized as Saint Margaret in the year 1250, which was fairly quick work for the Vatican then *or* now), it would not be all that strange for one of her sons to prefer the cloister to the crown.
Ethelred may have had other reasons besides a priestly vocation for opting out of the dynastic struggles. The Celtic peoples had a very strong tradition of demanding that their rulers be without blemish, deformity or disability (cf. the legend of Nuada of the Silver Hand), and if Ethelred had some obvious physical imperfection (such as a club foot), that would basically rule him out of the succession. (This is probably why Ethelred's uncle Donald Bane was blinded after his second usurpation - not so much out of savagery as to make sure that he could *never, ever* stage a third attempt.)
He was never the ruler of Fife, not Mormaer nor Thane nor Earl (that title was held in his own time by Causantin (Constantine) of the macDuffs), and is not the same person as the Aedh/Heth/Head/(Hugh) who witnessed several royal charters in the early 12th century. The latter may possibly have been the otherwise unknown husband of Lulach's unnamed daughter, and father of Óengus [Angus] of Moray (killed in battle 1130, after which the title to Moray lapsed until the Scottish Crown saw fit to grant it again).
He is not reliably reported to have married anyone, nor to have had any offspring (Gille Mathiel/Gillemichael of Fife, Causantin's successor, was of the clan MacDuff, as were all his known predecessors - the house of Dunkeld was *not* counted as part of the clan MacDuff).

In-Game Blog/Box score
WEST POINT, NY - The Johns Hopkins attack trio of seniors Kyle Wharton and Chris Boland and sophomore Zach Palmer combined for 11 goals and four assists and tallied all five Blue Jay goals in the third quarter as third-ranked Johns Hopkins posted a 15-10 win over 19th-ranked Army Friday night at Michie Stadium. The win, JHU's seventh straight overall and 17th straight against Army, improves the Blue Jays' record to 12-2. Army ends the regular season at 9-6.
The Blue Jays led 9-3 at the half and took any hopes of an Army comeback away in the first six minutes of the third quarter, when they scored four straight to push the lead out to a game-high 10 at 13-3. An extra-man goal by Boland just 18 seconds into the period ignited the run for JHU, which got a goal from Palmer three minutes later and back-to-back goals from Wharton in a 15-second span just over a minute after that to push out to a 10-goal lead that was never seriously threatened in the final 25 minutes of the game.
The Blue Jays came out firing early in the game and took control of the first half with a 6-1 run that turned a 1-1 tied into a 7-2 advantage. A John Ranagan goal jump-started the spree just 41 seconds after Army's Garrett Thul tied the game at 1-1 and JHU netted a pair of goals - strikes by Palmer and Wharton - in a span of 45 seconds late in the first quarter to make it 4-1.
Army temporarily halted the run with a goal by Andrew Boyd with 2:36 remaining in the first period, but an extra-man goal by sophomore John Greeley with just 34 seconds left in the first quarter made it 5-2.
Neither team scored in the first five minutes of the second quarter before the Blue Jays struck for a pair of goals in a 65-second span midway through the period to push the lead to 7-2. Palmer and Wharton scored nearly identical goals as both worked their way from behind the goal and scored from in close to make it a five-goal game.
A opportunistic rebound goal by Conor Hayes, who scooped up a ground ball off a shot that hit the post and threw it into the open goal, sliced the deficit to 7-3 with 7:04 remaining in the first half, but Boland slipped inside his defender and scored from in tight less than two minutes later and freshman Brandon Benn added an extra man goal with 75 seconds left in the first half to give the Blue Jays the 9-3 halftime lead that quickly swelled to double figures early in the second half.
Wharton matched his career high with five goals and added one assist for a personal best six points. Palmer added three goals and two assists and Boland added three goals and one assist to compete the 15-point game for trio, which has now combined for 12 or more points in three of Johns Hopkins' last four games.
Greeley totaled one goal and two assists and was especially active early in the game as he had a hand in three of JHU's five first-quarter goals. Benn (2g) and Ranagan (1g, 1a) joined the attack and Greeley as multi-point scorers for the Blue Jays. Senior Matt Dolente enjoyed another outstanding performance on faceoffs with a career-high 17 faceoff wins on 22 attempts. His 13 ground balls are also a career high.
Army, which scored six of the final seven goals in the game to account for the 15-10 final score, was led by the Jeremy Boltus, Thul and Rob McCallion. Boltus had a game-high six assists, while Thul and McCallion both netted three goals for the Black Knights, who won just six of 28 faceoffs and lost the ground ball battle, 42-22.

We're finally getting some here in VT, got 8-10 on the ground so far with 20-30 mph winds. Blowing it every which a way!! Very pretty, getting around not so good but still beautiful to see. There calling for about 16-20" or so by Friday afternoon.
Only bad part is that it will mess up what ice that had already started locking up the bays. With this it will definatley make the lake cool off real quickly so we can get some more ice on and get some fishing in,, can't wait. It's looking like the Valentines day storm we got in 2010, lots of wind and snow, we got some drifts in the front yard that are already about 3' deep, time to break out the blower and get busy. All my birds are flocking around looking for the seed I usually put out each morning, there looking hungry this morning after hanging on to the tree branch's for dear life all night!!. Very windy and snowing last night too.

A bit about Parted Magic 5.3 and UnetBootin
- Format internal and external hard drives.
- Move, copy, create, delete, expand & shrink hard drive partitions.
- Clone your hard drive, to create a full backup.
- Test hard drives for impending failure.
- Test memory for bad sectors.
- Benchmark your computer for a performance rating.
- Securely erase your entire hard drive, wiping it clean from all data.
- Gives access to non-booting systems allowing you to rescue important data.
- Runs from CD or USB, no install required.
So as you can see, Parted Magic can indeed pull some impressive magic tricks off. Don't let that "specialist" flavor intimidate you, though, it simply means that this is not your typical full blown desktop, but a set of tools aimed at data recovery and partition management wrapped up in an optimized in a top performing package.
The Parted Magic team used to split their releases in two formats, a Live CD ISO image and a ZIP file containing files that were meant to allow the user to manually put together a Live USB. However, the latter option was complicated, specially for the average (unexperienced) user. As a result, the distro developers have decided to reduce the release format to a single one, the ISO image, and count on UnetBootin as the official tool to create a Live USB. For those who don't know or have not heard of UnetBootin, I wanted to briefly introduce it in this article, as it is a pretty neat tool that dramatically simplifies the creation of a Live USB.
Unetbootin is available on most major distros repositories, so you should be able to install it using your distro software manager of choice, no additional repositories required. Once installed, you only need two things: a USB drive with enough space available and the ISO image of a distro supported by UnetBootin.

On the image above you can see UnetBootin in action on PCLinuxOS 2010. The interface is simple and intuitive. In order to create a Live USB, simply select the specific distro (in this case Parted Magic), the location of the ISO image (which I downloaded from HERE), and finally the mount location of your USB drive (make sure you get this last bit RIGHT!). In just a few minutes I had a bootable USB drive with Parted Magic on... Pretty neat stuff!
Because Parted Magic is a specialist distro, I won't cover all of its features in depth here. Instead, I would like to provide just a high level view of what's available so you can tell if it is for you or not. Having said so, I would recommend keeping it with you on a Live CD or USB regardless. Believe me, you may find something miraculous about this magic at some point later down the line.
One neat feature about Parted Magic is that, given its extremely light weight, it can boot straight into memory, not requiring any hard drive interaction of any kind to function. In other words, you may use a Live CD or USB to boot and once the process completes, you may eject them for they are no longer needed. This is not only convenient, but it also allows for some impressive performance!

The Parted Magic desktop, as depicted above, is clean and simple. There is a convenient text based widget monitoring the system resources on the fly. The most important and useful applications are easy to reach from desktop launchers, but lots more are available from the main menu, let's take a quick look.
The Accessories menu entry holds many interesting applications, as shown above. As expected, there are no fancy office suite apps in here and even the Sonar file manager feels a bit simplistic, but it's all perfect for what the distro is aimed for.
The Internet menu entry contains just a handful applications, but they are all good choices. Chromium takes the Internet browser role, something many should welcome. On top of that, a VNC client, which is good for access to remote computers, a few FTP clients and an IRC client, just in case we may need the occasional live discussion to clarify any doubts.
The System menu entry is where it is at, though. Ghost4Linux, GParted, Clonezilla, TestDisk and UnetBootin itself, among many others, make up for a host of terribly powerful applications which will help you mount many different filesystems, monitor drives and run healthchecks on them, fix potential problems and even clone entire systems.
All in all, Parted Magic is an awesome tool that can provide some invaluable help under difficult circumstances. Once again, I encourage keeping it around just in case. It is better to spare a CD or a small USB drive and never need to use Parted Magic, than having a problem and missing its company!

Nice summation of a nice distro. I have been using knoppix on an usb stick as an emergency distro. After reading your review, I am compelled to try out Parted Magic and perchance switch to it permanently.ReplyDelete

I love Parted Magic, because I love usefulness!!:) I did use unetbootin a LOT, but today I just discovered MultiSystem from "http://liveusb.info/dotclear/". MultiSystem allows me to put several OSes into one single partition. And when I boot into that partition, through grub2, it asks me to choose which OS I want to boot into. Try it... (however, it seems like you have to have patience to try this program several times, because in my first two tries, the program just closed itself unexpectantly and the third try gave me long errors, it worked the fourth time, but I didn't do anything different)ReplyDelete
