Tears of the Sun [Import]

5.0 out of 5 stars
Saw it twice, bought the soundtrack and cried.
June 11 2003
This review is from:
Tears of the Sun [Import] (VHS Tape)
I was deeply moved by this movie. Here in NYC its 10 dollars to see a movie and I saw this twice and bought the soundtrack----a [big]investment. I do like Bruce Willis as an actor and Monica Belluci who I first saw in Under Suspicion, here and now in the Matrix Unloaded is a total knockout, not just because she's pretty but because you can see her thinking. Much the way Catherine Zeta-Jones acts in flms----you can see even if this person is pretending they are thinking about this scene as if it is relaity and their characters are infused with the hesitation, the deliberation of intelligent people who don't blurt al they know or suspect.
Willis as always is yet another shade, another degree, another facet of an accomplished actor who is striving for a versatility that is ingratiating.
The film was incredible because it so accurately dealt with the murky complexity of war. Suddenly on a simple mission to snatch 4 missionaries out of a hospital village that is in the line of the now killer spree military, Willis' small force finds themselves with loads of moral dilemmas. Belluci won't go without her patients, three of the missionaries refuse to go at all so strong is their commitment to the African people they tend. To get them moving Willis lies to Belluci and then can't live with the lie when they leave behind dozens of helpless people. What drove me in this film is what would I do, what is teh military's responsibility, what is a human being's responsibility to another? Do we just abandon each other on "orders" or political ties that may not even touch us personally or is every life valuable.
When this film came out, the Iraq attack was on and people were literally screaming in the streets about kill, kill, kill.
War is an abomination. It is literally the raping of the human race as an action to take against another. And yet we not only do it but produce it as entertainment. What made thsi film stand out, I generally don't go to war films nor gangster films, is that the very message of this film is about the people who are caught inbetween all of this drama. People who are just drinking a glass of water, raising their families, tending their fields.
The film also demands a conclusive answer to a central question, a presupposition of war----you must be able to kill women and children. Put a gun to their heads or allow them to die. And there comes a point when the soldiers can not do this, nor watch it be done. That's what makes thsi film stand out and why I heartily reccommend it to people who don't get off on war, on gore, on watching the pantomime of people dying.
I cried during the movie because I knew that a few thousand miles to the East people, just normal folk, were being slaughtered much as the people in the film were, simply for being caught between two armies/ideologies.
Aksua Busia plays one of the rescued villagers, she was Celie's sister in the Color Purple and did a heavy re-write on Beloved the screenplay. She is a commendable actress though her part here has to embody such positive African sentiment that it does seem maudlin, or too "cloying" of gratitude. She is an excellent actress and the best twist of all is how Belluci's character makes it infaticly clear, without regards to race, that these are HER people and she will not be safe if they aren't safe.
And it soon becomes apparent during the film that she will even lie to the American soldiers to protect her adopted people. That form of not simply heroism but diverging from the norm stance----a character willing to die, to put it all on the line without even having a weapon for the racial "other" is wondorous thing to see.
I also recommend the soundtrack which is moving and haunting and foreboding and as lush as the jungle these people move through. I enjoyed Fuqua's direction, particularly the African military being portrayed as a force so intent, so massive that literally the only thing that saves anyone from them is a deux ex machina.
The title Tears of the Sun literally refers to the final ten minutes of the movie when the whole world has gone to hell and a battle breaks out that can't be won.
I also like a good chase film, where someone is being chased and must compensate for the fact that they are outnumbered or outgunned.
This is a classic film and I don't use that lightly----particularly for the timeframe that it's come out in.

Numerology Demystified (Paperback)
I have some numbers that have been floatign through my life for awhile now. I've won money with them, seen them countless times in their variants all around me (ex. I'll glance at the clock and it will be THE number, a car passes by it's the license plat, whacky stuff like that). I had mentioned it to my mother but never the number specifically. FInally in teh course of conversation I did and she tells me that it wa steh number that my dead aunt used to play----amazingly enough my aunt always told me that I could figure out Lotto and win---I had never made teh conenction before. My mother then pointed out that within teh number was teh date of my aunt's death and my grandmother's, she sugegsted I get a numerology book to figure otu what the number meant to me as the same thing has different meanings to people (my experiences with my number have always been overwhlemingly positive or alerting).
So after working out last night, I went and got this book and working out the name chart----no lie---came out to my NUMBER!
This is a fantastic book, that I picked up randomly , it was even out of place at the bookstore because I didn't want to get confused as to what numerology book to try. I'm sending not only my mother but friends copies of this as well.
The book itself is simple, to the point and very concise with examples that lead you step by step to uncovering a host of numbers regarding your name, birthday, etc.. and the year things occured in, in the past, present or will in the future.
This was suppose to be my budget---NO NEW BOOKS----week and it so floored me in the store that I bought it.
I don't give high recommendations often but this one is worth it! BUY IT!
Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money-That the Poor and the Middle Class Do Not!
by Robert T. Kiyosaki

April 29 2003
This review is from:
Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money-That the Poor and the Middle Class Do Not! (Paperback)
A great book with lots of sound practical advice! I've been very lucky over the years, by that I mean that I've had the opportunity to explore being an entrepreneur. I started when I was 14, a national magazine on a small scale and what I learned from that I would later articulate in other projects for publishing and even now on Amazon. I went to the Rich Dad seminar in New York this past November. I expected there to be an exhaustive push to purchase the various products available through his company but instead it was a full on lessons in business. We were actually given workbooks and situations culled from the audience to look at how systems work and their business potential.
I will tell you what all of this has helped to congeal in my head. One, money does not exist. Now this may seem to be contradictory to the entire concept of what Kiyosaki's books seem to extort on the surface but it doesn't. Again this is a radical concept, but I think that after a certain number, money is simply a concept. The majority of people think of working from paycheck to paycheck and what can be done with that money (after taxes usually 50% of one's annual number salary), unless you make a staggering amount you can't get ahead.
What I think the RDPD series gives one the insight to do is recognize all of the systems you're in. First what your money is, doing a spreadsheet on yourself and your worth, figuring out your goals and so forth and then the legal areas that affect your money. Most people know how much they make weekly, what that number should be annually but we rarely keep track of WHY those numbers are affected as they are. The difference between the rich and the poor is that the rich understand the power of their tax contributions and how much they absolutely have to make and how much they don't.
Rich people also think about money for sport not only for survival. Here's a mental game I've learned to play: I imagine what businesses I would build in a neighborhood I'm in, what I can see that would work, what wouldn't, etc..---cost analysis evaluation of places. I also regualrly look at Lotto prizes and figure out exactly how much that money is----10 million after taxes, withholding= 4 or 5 million really isn't that much.
This is where it becomes interesting and the book delves into this: How to make money make more money?
We all assume that getting a job is the easiest way to make money and then we assume that a business is so difficult to manage that we don't have the ability to do so. And yet amazingly, I started my first business when I was 7 selling papers, I would buy Sunday papers for 50 cents and sell them for 75 cents because I delievered the Sunday paper early in the winter.
Most people want answers. Answers the way your boss tells you to sit there, do this this way, deliver it by this time and then go home. Thats what people miss in this book----being told what to do. But ultimately they want to be TOLD what to do, become rich and then they will have the freedom to be "free to do whatever they want". Being free is everyone's greatest desire and fear. We have become a society that values conformity over creativity.
People want to read this book and be told, put 5 dollars in a red box for ten years and you'll be a millionaire. Do this the right way and your life will be perfect. This isn't the way to be successful. There are ways of educatingone's self----first books like this. I recommend making a study of the entire Rich Dad Series. You must make a study of first money, then yourself, then what to do with both.
I further recommend Tony Robbins Personal Power, Getting the Edge, Awaken The Giant because you must articulate what you want in the Universe. What if money is similar to the concept of the Matrix? What if the difference between me and John D. Rockefeller is a Universal expression of my potential in material manifestation? Visulaization, understanding what money is, how to use it, how to grow, what real estate is, learning to think.
I think I will end this lifetime as affluent. Why? because not only have I maintained studying these kinds of books but because my video "games" are HSX.com, Entrepreneur PC game. I think that Kiyosaki SHOULDN"T answer questions such as numbers of what to do or how to do because life isn't about hand holding in the concept that people want it to be and honestly every person is different in terms of commitment level and ability. Did Obi Wan teach Luke how to transcend death or lift an X Wing fighter the first time? No.
You have to understand business, law, taxes. Really considering my investment future, what to do with money I may receive NEXT year in my tax returns, looking at my 401k plans and realizing that I could invest the money better, avoiding mutual funds and then designing an exit strategy for invested money---a concept pushed from the get go in RDPD----Enter Strategies, How Much You Need For the Lifestyle You Want and Exit Strategies.

CERULEAN SIN (LIBR. ED.) (7 CASS.) (Audio Cassette)
My past reviews of the Anita Blake series have been back and forth between one and three stars because the series was developing, finding it's footing and developing of the character. There are still flashes of the old problems here but it's far more under control. This book was not only good in the places but pretty much as a book as a whole. Though I will say I hedged my bet by buying it for 60% off and I will admit that there is still a lot of conversational psycho analyzing going on in the character's interactions.
There is a really interesting point of Anita having to open herself up sexually beyond simply a puritannical/Christian sense of one woman, one partner which is an interesting dynamic. Also the concept of fluidic sexualities within the sphere of people she's around, there is a true pushing towards omnisexuality. That's a great element of this book and how everyone's powers---vampires, werewolves, wereleopards, etc.---is so intrinsically linked to sex and emotional intimacy. And that the literal focal point of all of this is someone who has prudish values to such free love and sex.
While Richard, teh werewolf king may seem like the stick in the mud to them truly being a team, the ultimate kind of family, I think he is the most human of them all. He doesn't like what he is, what's around him, what he's been forced to become----there was no choice in it for him and I realized in his hesitations and depression and anger he is the most human of them all. Unfortunately everyone else has made it so mandatory that he accept this whole lifestyle eventhough none of them else have regular lives outside of all of this weirdness. It would be nice if the inherent selfishness of the group is explored in that it's ok that someone doesn't want to be a part of this world.
Onto the villainess, Belle Morte!
I'm glad she didn't get a bullet in the head and is being saved as another problem for the future and this whole Mother of All Darkness is very interesting and it looks like it's part of Anita's destiny to be a link to all of these supernatural tribes to deal with this evil. What I do find interesting is how everyone is pushing in their "vampire worlds" this ultimate Uber Evil (Angel, Buffy, here) and at the same time here in the book the government (rightfully so) is taking an interest in all of these factions and using them for their own means. It's about time.
I hope thatteh series doesn't shut down after a book or two because their are international dilemnas out there. It's also a pet peeve of mine that for all of their talking and constant emotional analyzing they never TALK to each other. They talk abotu themselves and push and pull but there are a couple of times in the novel where it would've been nice for Anita to pull Jean Claude aside and sit for a couple of hours to understand the vampire rules. Sometyimes her ignorance is used as a device to tell the reader things that we don't know about this world but it also serves to keep the exposition going on for tooooooooo long.
As always the criminal investigation of the book doesn't get underway until page 100-125 which if you pay attention to the pacing of previous novels is how it always happens, the predictability caused the loss of one star. The hitman aspect of this was a little thin, thinner than most of the criminal plots of the book and more of harked back to characters that appeared in the beginning of the books to wrap up the end. That was the weakest aspect of the book in that this whole other sub-plot was developed as something that I expect will ultimate appear in future books.
I was very pleased with this book, it has much more polish and isn't as reliant on Anita being able to shoot anyone and anything to beat it. That showed a maturity of the work and it's nice to see Anita enjoying and accepting having so many varied lovers and the bonding of being part of a pack. As I was reading the book, aside from the romantic part of this and the erotica, it was great to see Anita growing and questioning why she loves as she doesn, why she pushed people away. It would be nice to see another female in the book to give another perspective on her---what ever happened to her best friend?
The children vampires, Valentina and Bartolome are an excellent addition to the cast of what is turning into a very unique "family". I was thinking that this sort of village living and loving would be a great thing.

This movie nabbed me one day on cable, I was half following it while cleaning. I enjoyed teh visuals and concept of the house being made of glass and transparent but other than that the plot was a little thinner than the special effects made it seem like it shoudl be. Lots of interesting concepts of demons/ghosts being trapped in this house by the words on the walls. The house itself being a spell.

To Die for [Import] (VHS Tape)
Ileana Douglas delivers this incredible line that sums up this amazing film when I knew that Nicole Kidman was a force to be reckoned with. She is an amazing actress who so succinctly pulls off an incredibly hateful character. To watch her scheme and manipulate to further her TV dreams is amazing. As the script and director show the warping that TV creates and the insane frenzy to be on Tv people laugh but all of the reality shows prove this to be true. People will do anything to get onto television, even destroy themselves or the sanctity of marriage or relationships.
This insight into the minds of such people isn't so fictitious.

One of the greatest things about Michael Jackson is his versatility. Also I think his fame is a symptom of the strangeness that surrounds him. He's not going to be a "normal" person by the standards by which we measure others. And I think the fault of most people is that they try to look at him as being someone who should be logically accessible as well in our concepts of our own worlds. I really liked this cd and recommend this highly for the beats.

My Life. My Story.
Welcome to the boring blog of me.
Over the past few years I have been a traveling photographer. I take pictures of the scenes around me and I meet wonderful people from around the world. Some of the places I've been to include: Japan, Thailand, Korea, Russia, Italy, and England.
I go from place to place staying with friends, family, and at odd hotels, motels, and hostels in the darkest corners of the world. I've photographed all of it and all of it has been beautiful.
This blog is going to be about my life in general, not just photography. I'll talk about the interesting people that cross my path, as well as the general interests that cross my mind.
Join me on this journey. It's just begun.

38K speeding tickets issued in 2-week NC campaign
Published: Thursday, April 16, 2009 at 8:08 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 16, 2009 at 8:08 a.m.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) North Carolina state troopers and local police have ticketed thousands of speeders in the past two weeks during spring highway safety campaigns.
The patrol and local authorities last week wrapped up a two-week speed enforcement campaign across North Carolina that resulted in more than 38,000 citations being issued as of April 12. Local police wrote more than 19,000 tickets and troopers wrote more than 18,000.
Troopers also wrote 965 tickets last week during a campaign to target speeders in work zones along major highways.
Authorities say driving too fast is the leading cause of wrecks and highway deaths.

* keep the noise pollution to a bare minimum. I don't wanna hear platinum rider, thunderstruck etc blaring out on my streets. For those that grow an extra set of nuts when listening to such filth, keep ya windows closed and the volume levels to single digits.
* now, post fight reactions will be intense as dreams will no doubt be shattered, and many of you will be pumped up and will want to vent out in a violent manner (being the re****s that you are and enjoy boxing as an act of violence and not a sport) many will want to take their anger out somehow, and may get aggressive towards people, or if you're a ***** ****d weakling like Teke, you'll probably just target a telephone booth or sign post. This sort of unsavoury behaviour won't be tolerated and you'll all be Zab Judah chicken dance'd before the skin peels off your knuckles.
That's the jist if it. Aside from that,use common sense, throw your rubbish in the bins. Follow these instructions and you'll be welcomed back with arms. That's all gents, now go out there and enjoy the fight and support Aussie boxing.
that is the best post ever
The Prowler may be there but don't worry about me, will probably go to a brothel after the fight to either celebrate or make myself feel better.

Supporters of new gun restrictions are optimistic that some legislation could pass the Legislature this year as lawmakers respond to the mass shooting at an elementary school in Connecticut.
Pro-gun group rallies at Okla. Capitol
OKLAHOMA CITY — A group of gun rights supporters gathered Friday outside the Oklahoma state Capitol to recruit members for a militia and urge the Legislature not to impose any restrictions on gun rights.
About 80 people, several openly carrying firearms, attended the rally sponsored by the Oklahoma Defense Force, a survivalist group that has a militia. Some carried "Don't Tread on Me" flags and others held signs criticizing President Obama and U.S. Sens. Tom Coburn and Jim Inhofe. A young boy carried a sign that read: "I'm Safer Because my Band Mommy Packs Heat."
Under Oklahoma's Self-Defense Act, it is legal for an individual with a handgun license to carry a firearm on state property, but not inside a state, county or municipal building. There were no uniformed law enforcement officers at the event, but Oklahoma Highway Patrol Capt. George Brown said the group applied for a permit last month.
"We were aware of what they were doing," Brown said. "They came and caused no problems."
Self-described Oklahoma Defense Force militia commander Ron Cross, who led the rally, said he's mostly concerned with attempts by the federal government to regulate the possession and ability to carry weapons.
"My Constitution tells me it's a right and it shall not be infringed," Cross said. "Let's organize, folks. We've got to stand and we've got to stand now."
Cross said the militia has about 300 members, and encouraged those in attendance who were interested to sign up.
"Oklahoma has one of the most organized militias nationwide," he said. "I'm not only helping Oklahoma. I'm working with other states to get their militias up and running."
Oklahoma's Republican-controlled Legislature has pushed to expand gun rights in recent years. Last year, they approved a so-called "open carry" law that allows individuals with a handgun license to openly display their weapon in a holster. That law took effect in November.
Legislators this session will be considering measures to expand where an individual is allowed to carry their weapon to include public meetings, parks and recreational areas.
Among those in the crowd was former Republican state Rep. Charles Key, who said in 2010 that he supported the creation of a state militia as a way to push back against an overreaching federal government.
Sean Henson, an ex-Marine from Broken Arrow, carried a holstered .40-caliber handgun on his hip. He said he was interested in the militia, saying it's a good way for a group of like-minded people to ensure government authorities won't confiscate their firearms.
"If the government decides to come and take 'em, they're going to send 30 men to take all your guns. If you're just one guy, they'll definitely put you in your grave," Henson said. "United we stand, divided we fall."
Gun rights demonstrators rally at Oregon Capitol
SALEM, Ore. — Hundreds of demonstrators, many armed with high-powered rifles, descended on the Oregon Capitol Friday to demonstrate their gun rights.
The demonstration is a response to calls for stiffer gun laws in the wake of recent mass shootings. Protesters say they want to show state lawmakers that they're peaceful, law-abiding gun owners and will fight any attempt to impose new gun restrictions. Some carried American flags.
It's legal to openly carry a weapon in public, and people with concealed handgun licenses can carry their weapons in the Capitol. Demonstrators kept their protest across the street from the statehouse and few brought their weapons indoors.

Mater Dei has been the benchmark in OC football, but this season the Monarchs have lost twice to tough opponents. Now comes a third opponent, and the proud program is looking at 0-3. Or are they?
"Even though we might be ranked ahead of Mater Dei now, Mater Dei is very dangerous," said San Clemente coach Eric Patton. "It's like playing a cornered animal, they're desperate for a win, and they're better than their record is showing. This is not something that is a wing and a prayer for us. We look forward to having a great game with Mater Dei, and we're very respectful of what they've done."
Ah, but what have they done lately? Last week Mater Dei suffered one of its worst losses in the Bruce Rollinson era, which dates back to 1989, giving up the first 44 points in a 44-13 loss to Corona Centennial. Despite having quarterback Max Wittek and receiver Victor Blackwell – both committed to USC – the Monarchs have scored only one offensive touchdown, and that came against Centennial's reserves. But Mater Dei is Mater Dei, and the Monarchs will show up and try to break out of their funk, and that's going to put a lot of pressure on San Clemente.
"I think we play some really good football at San Clemente and we want to show people what we can do," Patton said. "There is some pressure on us that way . . . We're going to go out and have some fun with it. It's a big game, the kind you like to play."
The Tritons (4-0) have been one of the solid programs in Orange County for more than a decade, but they have not been among the elite programs. This year, with 6-foot-6 junior quarterback Travis Wilson getting better with each performance, and a back in junior Nick Pasquale who can run the fly sweep extremely well, they might belong among the upper echelon, but they will have to beat Mater Dei to prove it, and that's what makes this contest so intriguing: Despite a 4-0 record, a credibility problem ensues unless it takes care of business in its home stadium on Friday.
Both teams really, really need this victory.
"It's a big game for this team and this year, and it's going to say a lot about us," Patton said. "We'll have other opportunities – we have games against Mission Viejo, Newport Harbor, Tesoro, Dana Hills – but there is something about this game. Mater Dei does have a certain mystique."

Word 2013 has a great feature for reviewing and editing documents. Rather than having to see every edit that was made to a document, you can enable viewing "Simple Markup," which simply shows a line in the margin indicating a change has been made.
Unfortunately, this new option seems to be slippery. When I set it to Simple Markup while working on a document, every few minutes and for no apparent reason it will switch on its own to "All Markup." It seems to occur only when the document is out of focus, meaning I'm working in another window.
How can I get Word 2013 to keep my selection for markup viewing?

I have installed the free version of Meta slider but cant seem to get it to work. I created the theme myself and from searching for a solution I think the problem might be with jquery but have no idea what to add and where to make it work.
I added the shortcode [metaslider id=1479]to this page http://thetaonline.co.za/newWeb/
and as you can see nothing shows up (the shortcode is there, i can see it by 'inspecting element' in Chrome)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Recently I received a hit from Malaysia (as reported/discovered by statpress) - it contained what looks like a match to the "ekibastos attack" - i.e. statpress reported a hit on the url:
I went to my server and blacklisted their ip, and I downloaded and installed the "exploit scanner" plugin - it's scan reporeted a bunch of stuff (all in files).
My question is, should I be especially concerned? Is there any other action that I shuld take/be prepared to take? Are there specific files that I should check for exploits inserted by a hacker?
I apologize if this is the wrong forum, but I'd appreciate any feedback/answer I receive.
Thanks for your time,
Long time wordpress user/fan.

I just recently switched to 1Password and I'm really happy with it. I personally really dig the design, especially the mac app! However their iOS counterpart currently looks a little out of place, I'm 100% sure they are already working on a fantastic flat version, but I really wanted a fitting icon for my homescreen right now.
And of course they released an update today... I might stick with my icon though, not a fan of theirs

Be A Master Typist
So, what kind of a typist are you? Are you a touch type or a hunt and peck type? It doesn't matter which way you type, but either way you do it, you can always improve.
First of all, a touch type typist is one who can type with a keyboard without having to look down at the keys. It may sound harder than it really… Continue reading

Not sure I can answer your questions exactly, but here goes. I have a Bond Arms Snake Slayer IV. That is the Snake Slayer with the 4.25" barrel chambered for .45 Colt/.410 Shot gun. I also have the 3.50" 22LR barrel for it as well, and the driving holster. Compared to my friends .357 Mag, I would say the Bond Arms kicks less. I find it to be very manageable. It is my carry weapon and I keep it loaded with Federal, 2.50" 000 buck. It is also the favorite of all my hand guns, though I don't have near as many as some of the other members. (GSG 1911 .22LR, Browning Buckmark .22 LR, Sig Sauer Mosquito .22 LR, Sig Pro 9mm) Don't get me wrong, I love every one of these guns, but the Bond Arms is my favorite, and is such a beautifully made gun and so much fun to shoot. I HIGHLY recommend it. The one I have comes with the extended grips and I would think the extended grips would be the best choice.

It's not too hard to make Charlize Theron happy – just pronounce her name correctly.
Jimmy Fallon got it right on The Tonight Show Tuesday (it's "ther-in," not "ther-own"), and the actress, 38, was quite grateful.
"It's like music to my ears, so beautiful," she said. "They screw it up."
"I almost want to make an audio voice tape of how to pronounce my name, and I want you to record it," she said to Fallon. "But I need you to do it 'cause you do it almost better than me."
Another thing that makes Theron smile? Her son, Jackson, 2½ and his latest milestones.
"He's really sweet. He's really starting to put sentences together," she said. "He's at that age now where he can tell you what he likes, what he doesn't like. You know, before, you're just kind of like, guessing."
Theron also revealed her son's love of Tinkerbell.
"I think it all started with this Frozen phenomenon. He's really into princesses now. And I know this is not just my son, so you can all act really cool about it," she joked.
"He really loves his Tinkerbell doll. Sometimes Tinkerbell 'has to take a trip,' just to give the other toys a chance," she said. "Tinkerbell goes to Africa a lot."

Hi all!
I'm trying to get a local version of WordPress running using Xampp however for whatever reason I can not get Permalinks to work along side Static Homepage.
Permalinks work using '/?page_id=x' but not in any other format.
I have already tried the solution explained here and various other places, but still nothing.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
I'm not sure if it makes any difference but I'm using a live database.

His climbing and time-trialling exploits have recalled the bullishness of Lance Armstrong. His Sky team have been branded 'British Postal'. Chris Froome has even been tricked into saying comparisons between him and the shamed Texan are "complimentary".
What the yellow jersey of the 2013 Tour de France certainly didn't need next was to be caught up in a re-enactment of Armstrong's famous evasive cyclo-cross exploit to avoid a sprawling Spaniard on the fast descent of the Col de Manse to Gap.
But on Tuesday that exact thing happened - although Alberto Contador's fall was far less horrific than that of Joseba Beloki 10 years earlier, while Froome's course of action was positively less dramatic than Armstrong's dual avoidance of a policeman and a ditch before riding through a field to rejoin the road.
Just a couple of bends after the spot where Beloki's wheel slipped in the melting tarmac, Contador himself skidded while trying to distance the yellow jersey.
Where the road greeted Beloki with a double broken femur, broken wrist and elbow, the soft tarmac was less exacting for his countryman a decade later, Contador only suffering a cut right knee and some moderate swelling.
As for Froome, like Armstrong, he had to swerve to avoid his rival - but what came next was about as dramatic as an episode of Last of the Summer Wine. He merely veered slightly onto the verge before unclipping his pedal to avoid a fall, then carried on his way. Indeed, if anything proved that Froome is far cry from Armstrong then it was in that moment.
Despite making it to Gap alongside Richie Porte without losing any time, Froome was not a happy bunny and laid into Contador for seemingly wanting to race.
"If they're not attacking me on the climbs then they're attacking me on the descents," he said - as if it were a shock that his rivals may try a new tactic when all others were failing.
"It was quite a dangerous descent and famous for Beloki's crash and Armstrong doing his off-road stuff. It was a bit careless of Alberto to attack. It wasn't good. He was pushing the limits and crashed. I went off the road and had to unclip before getting back going again.
"I was lucky to have Richie there.
"I personally think teams are getting desperate now, therefore taking uncalculated risks."
To be fair, Chris, the first two weeks of the race have proved that cycling uphill and against the clocks are not exactly conducive to making you crack, so you can't blame your rivals for trying something different.
As for Contador, he said that the road was soft from the heat and his tyre slipped. He said his wounds were not serious, claiming they were "only a knock".
Anyway, with rain forecast in the Alps for the rest of the week, it could well be the downhills that prove just as decisive as the uphills - most notably the treacherous descent down the back of the Col du Sarenne on Thursday and Friday's ride down the Croix de Fry towards Le Grand Bornand.
Later, after the dust had seemingly settled, Froome even took to Twitter (a rarity, indeed) to voice his grievances directly to Contador, tweeting in a very patron-du-peloton-esque way: "Almost went over your head, Alberto. Little more care next time?"
Perhaps a better tactic for Froome would be not to ride so ridiculously close to a man who is trailing him by four-and-a-half minutes on GC...
Or, like Armstrong, is he hell bent on giving no-one any gifts?
(INDIRECTLY FUNNIEST) TWEET OF THE DAY: "Contador have always his best day after the second rest day. So remake of 2011? Nice stage for offensive." Philippe Gilbert, we salute you...
HOT: Rui Costa fell on his sword last week when having to help pace back team-mate Alejandro Valverde after the Spaniard picked up a flat in the crosswinds. As a result, the Portuguese shipped 11 minutes and dropped out of the top ten. So it was poetic justice to see the Tour de Suisse double winner recoup that 11 minutes while picking up his second career win on the Tour.
NOT: Try as they might, the host nation are still without a win in their own race. On Tuesday, there were eight French riders in the break of 26 and although they finished with three in the top four, none of those were first over the line. In fact, all three riders - Jerome Coppel, Christophe Riblon and Arnold Jeannesson - finished shoulder-to-shoulder to make a blue, white and red Tricolor flag coming across the line. It looked very nice - but a win's still better than a makeshift flag.
Well, it's lucky that Bauke Mollema - unlike his Belkin team-mate Laurens Ten Dam - managed to stick with the race favourites en route to Gap, otherwise Contador would be rolling down the ramp just three minutes ahead of Froome in the mountain time trial. After all, we wouldn't want Froome riding dangerously close to his Spanish rival on the final descent to Chorges. What if Contador was to fall on a tight bend?
Tour organisers say this race against the clock is the hardest they have ever designed - and that's certainly not all rhetoric and hyperbole. The first climb peaks at 10 per cent and is often ridden into fierce headwinds coming off the Lac de Serre Poncon. It's followed by a treacherous downhill of twisting bends and narrow roads. While the second climb and descent combo is not as hard, some riders may be taking risks - while the threat of rain also looms.
There really is only one winner here, with Froome likely to increase his overall lead to more than six minutes after his third stage win of the race.
PLAT DU JOUR: The weather has been so hot in this year's Tour that you could probably get away with having a 'pierrade' grill by just leaving the stone one in the sunlight for a few hours. And if cheese if your thing, then forget the Raclette machine and just use direct rays from the sun.
But what's that you say? It may be raining on Wednesday?? Zut alors! You'll just have to drink shots of the local plant liqueur, Genepi.

I cannot believe I have to say this, but....
People, I have a life. It is not always pleasant. Life is sometimes just that way. Someone has recently castigated me because I didn't change their family information on their family's memorials within a week. Within that particular week, I did an emergency run to Oklahoma due to a family death (14 hour drive one way). I came roaring back to Colorado to emergencies at work. I don't own a laptop, so I could make no changes while gone. My husband would like my attention periodically, as does the garden, etc. Please, PLEASE respect that we are all volunteers, unpaid folks who do this for the joy and love of family, cemeteries, or a boatload of other reasons. Give me A MONTH to make changes. I know that seems like for forever on your part, but on my part, at times, that's 32 seconds. Blessings, Beth
You have my permission to use my photos of Headstones in your own genealogy. It would be nice if you'd give me a little credit, but, let's get real, how am I to know? "Photo of headstone courtesy of Findagrave Contributor Beth in Colorado (#47321605)" works for me!
I love looking for family, no matter how far removed. It's just flat fun! My main interest, however, are Geer's, Hodge's, Hampton's, Cargo's, Walker's, Simmons', Sala's, Snyder's, and any attachments of said families.
While researching my family on Ancestry.com, the never ending story, right?, I found the Chicago Tribune's Obituary section. I've taken to putting entries from there on to Findagrave. Can I say I love the names in Chicago? I also noted burials from church records in Philadelphia that are also on Ancestry.com. I'm going to go back and start in-putting those records on Findagrave, too.
I became a little hooked on taking pictures out in Union Highland Cemetery in Florence, Colorado back in 2011. I do so love UHC. One day I'll have photos of every Headstone out there up on Findagrave, and will have connected my peeps buried out there to each other. It was the Little Ones who got me hooked. "Where's your Momma, Baby? Where's your Papa?" Drove me nuts, so I started trying to find Momma's and Daddy's. I'm now a lost cause.
All of this with a full-time job that I'm on-call for 24/7, bowling on Thursdays (which I really suck at, but somebody's got to be the Team Handicap), gardening (both flowers & veggies), and riding bikes with my husband, John, in the mountains on my beloved Harley, Pookah.
Enjoy! And I hope I've helped you in your own searching.
So, this is how I get started on tracking and linking the Folks in Union Highland Cemetery.
1. I notice the Vahldick's and Cowperthwaite's are buried in the same Lot. Gee, why is that?
2. There's only one other Vahldick in the Cemetery, Miss Sadie, and, why lookie there!, her grave is right next to Edward & Mary Ann Cowperthwaite waaaay on the other side of the cemetery. Two separate Vahldick's by two separate Cowperthwaite's. Bet that means something.
3. Harold's father was born in Illinois; his mother was born in England. Sadie Vahldick was born in England IF she is a Cowperthwaite.
3. In the 1910, 1920 & 1930 census', Mr. Harold Vahldick is living with Mr. David R. Davis. Harold is David's nephew. Oh, gee! Mr. David R. Davis's Lot is right behind Mr. Harold R. Vahldick's plot. Nephew, huh? That means Mr. David R. Davis is married to Harold's mother's sister.
4. Mr. David R. Davis is married to Miss Joan. I'll bet Miss Joan is a Cowperthwaite, etc. etc.

RE: Edna CHARLOTTE Smith Furnas
Thanks for the info on middle name, Charlotte. I didn't have her middle name. I really think it is so neat to be able to connect these families together in virtual cemeteries, parents to child, sibling to sibling and spouse with spouse. Also, thank you for the well wishes!

Wow!!! Thank you! :D
I just want to let you know how much I appreciated the time you took to do the obit. lookup! That was so awesome of you! lol Thank you! I really enjoyed it. It was very detailed. Sometimes when I do the obit lookups, the notices can be a short two or three sentences with nothing in particular (information wise) or sometimes you hit the jackpot with a really nice biographical write-up. You never know what you'll find, or if the individual even had an obituary. The information contained in both John's and his wife, Elizabeth's were such nice memorials to them. I think it ties together a lot of lose ends and completes this family. I will work on adding this to his memorial and maybe putting some hyperlinks on the text too. In any event, I wanted to send my thanks for all your efforts. I appreciate it very much and I'm sure that other researchers in future will appreciate it too. You're awesome! lol Best wishes to you in your research and continued transcription projects as well. A million thanks!

RE: John William Smith
Thanks much. I'd love an obit on John W. 'as time permits'. You asked about Utterback. I only just learned that Mary Elizabeth, her maiden name was Agar. I found it in the 1886 marriage record mentioned in her obit. and the date in obit matches the date of marriage, plus it had C.G. Smith initialed, so I know it's correct. Anyways, I do not know the Agar line that Mary E (Agar) Smith is descended from. However... husband, John W. Smith, he had a paternal gr-aunt who's married name was Utterback. Go to John W.'s grandfather's memorial at memorial # 74943738. That is Joseph D. Smith. See child, Olive S. (Smith) Utterback. Now.. if you are researching Utterback, the one you need to contact is David Hefling. He is the memorial manager for Joseph D. He will definitely know the Utterbacks of Tuscarawas/Harrison Co's., in Ohio and elsewhere. Best wishes, thanks again!

Looking for John & Mary Blankenships
Hi Beth,
My name is Michael Stock; Zora Mae Blankenship was my Dad�s (Leland Stock) mother. Sorry if I�ve totally confused you it was just an attempt to identify myself.
In June I hope to be (as it�s said) walking in the footsteps of my ancestors. I�ll be in the Florence area and later on to Dade County Missouri to visit the area my Grandmother, Zora Mae, was born.
I especially want to find John and Mary Blankenship�s grave site. I need to pay my respects and thank them for raising my Dad; they probably didn�t realize or know just what a fantastic job they did.
If I may ask; do you have the Union Highland Cemetery�s phone number? I would like to speak with someone in charge of the cemetery so, I can find out the hours it is open to the public. I will be in the area on Saturday and Sunday June 4th & 5th and don�t know if the gate(s) are locked on the weekends.
Another question, is there any way of determining where Section 5, Lot 59 is located? I ask because I too do volunteer work for Find-a-Grave and I know how difficult it can be in locating grave sites.
Hope to hear from you,
Thank you,
Michael Stock

He is buried in the same section as his mother Julia L Moore. I plan to purchase headstones for his mother, step-father and uncle. I need to know if he has one or not, to purchase one for him as well. He does have a brother in the same cemetery who does have a headstone. Thank You. I appreciate all the work you've done. I also would like to somehow get a copy of the plat plan for Lakeside Cemetery. If there is one could you please email me a copy at email@example.com?

Hi all,
I'm having a bit of a problem with the height of a grid and the vertical scrollbar. Somehow, the bottom of the grid falls of the screen, as well as the bottom of the scrollbar.

Another observation:
When the following code is executed:

BdmInstance b = (BdmInstance) bm.getBean();

WHEN VINCE FUMO was told that he'd serve his eye-blink of a sentence in a federal lockup in Ashland, Ky., his legal flacks whined that its 525-mile distance from Philly would create a travel hardship for his friends and family.
They also complained that Ashland lacked drug-and-alcohol-treatment programs, services that Fumo requires because - who knew? - our lying, greedy, justice-obstructing ex-senator is also a pill-popping booze hound.

After no wide receiver through seven rounds, Saints add an intriguing UDFA
The New Orleans Saints were expected to address the wide receiver position at some point in the 2015 NFL draft. Surprisingly, out of their nine total draft picks, they chose not to use one of them on a wide receiver.Instead, the Saints chose to snag an undrafted free agent soon after the draft came to a close, according to Gene Higginbotham of the Big Easy Believer.

But it would be best to not do it on an empty stomach, and besides, even though there is no human players in the game except me right now, I want to give a heads up before I close it.

Horrible experience
May 30, 2016
We arrived around dinnertime and the first room we were given had a wet floor next to the AC unit. Luckily, we noticed before we got too comfortable. When we informed the person at the desk, she said, "The same thing happened last week" and gave us a different room on the 2nd floor. Apparently, the AC is leaking and needs to be fixed. instead, they stuck a big fan in the room after we left.

Diverticulitis occurs when small, bulging sacs or pouches that form on the inner wall of the intestine (diverticula) become inflamed or infected. Most often, these pouches are in the large intestine (colon).
The formation of pouches or sacs on the intestinal lining is called diverticulosis. It is found in more than half of Americans over age 60. However, no one knows exactly what causes the pouches to form.
Eating a low-fiber diet mostly made up of processed foods may be a cause. Constipation and hard stools are more likely when you do not eat enough fiber. Straining to pass stools increases the pressure in the colon or intestines, which may lead to the formation of these pouches.
Diverticulitis is caused by small pieces of stool (feces) that become trapped in these pouches, causing infection or inflammation.
People with diverticulosis often have no symptoms, but they may have bloating and cramping in the lower part of the belly. Rarely, they may notice blood in their stool or on toilet paper.
Symptoms of diverticulitis are more severe and often start suddenly, but they may become worse over a few days. They include:
Exams and Tests
Your health care provider will examine you. You may need blood tests to see if you have an infection.
Other tests that help diagnose diverticulitis may include:
The treatment of diverticulitis depends on how serious symptom are. Some people may need to be in the hospital, but most of the time the problem can be treated at home.
To help with the pain, your doctor may suggest that you:
The doctor may treat you with antibiotics.
After you are better, your doctor will suggest that you add more fiber to your diet. Eating more fiber can help prevent future attacks. If you have bloating or gas, reduce the amount of fiber you eat for a few days.
Once these pouches have formed, you will have them for life. Diverticulitis can return, but some health care providers think a high-fiber diet may lessen your chances of a recurrence.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Most often, this is a mild condition that responds well to treatment. Some people will have more than one attack of diverticulitis. Surgery may be needed in some cases. Many times, doctors will recommend that you have a colonoscopy after diverticulitis has healed.
Possible Complications
More serious problems that may develop are:
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if symptoms of diverticulitis occur.
Also call if you have diverticulitis and:
