Eddie Alvarez found a willing dance partner in Pat Curran. He just wouldn't leave the dance floor.
Curran decided to stand and bang with one of the world's top 10 lightweights, but wouldn't wilt under a hailstorm of body shots. Alvarez landed more punches and the harder shots throughout to roll to a unanimous decision win, 50-45, 50-45 and 49-46, in the main event of Bellator 39.
Curran, whose cousin Jeff is a former WEC champion, sent a message by going the distance with Alvarez. The Philadelphian moved to 22-2 with the win. It was just the third time he'd been taken past the second round. Alvarez came in riding a six-fight win streak and was fresh off a complete destruction of former UFC lightweight Roger Huerta.
"That guy's got a hard, hard head. He can take a shot," Alvarez told Bellator color voice Jimmy Smith. "I was starting to find my rhythm. He just stuck in there. I wish I had the heart he has at his age. Pat's gonna be a champion, no doubt."
Curran's overall game was impressive. Alvarez, is a very solid MMA wrestler, but anytime he got Curran down, the 23-year-old was able to quickly scramble to his feet. On the feet, Alvarez's movement made it tough for Curran (13-4) to land punches.
Curran is tough as nails. He absorbed dozens of nasty body shots and never went down.
Hawn takes narrow split decision from Good
Rick Hawn's effort won't make any "Best of" highlight tapes, but he fought to a gameplan that scored with the judges. He got a takedown early in the second and one more with 15 seconds left in the fight. That may have been the difference in gaining a split decision win, 29-28, 28-29 and 30-27, over Lyman Good to advance to the Bellator Season 4 welterweight tournament final.
Hawn will face the winner of Jay Hieron and Brent Weedman. They fight next week at Bellator 40.
"He hits hard. I started off a little slow and I should've pushed harder at the end," Hawn said. "[I have] a lot of confidence. [Good's] won the tournament before. Whoever it is, I'm ready for them."
Good cost himself the fight with his inability to get off the mat in the second round. He was taken down at 4:42 left in the round and didn't try a single submission or commit to escaping. Hawn landed nothing of significance, but maintained top control and most times that's enough to win over judges.
In the first and third round on the feet, Good landed some effective jabs, but was hesitant to really commit with big shots or flurries.
Hawn, a 2004 Olympian in Judo, is dangerous in the clinch and Good was clearly avoiding tight spaces.
'Pitbull' with another eye-opening win
Toby Imada has been a handful for everyone in Bellator, but Patricky "Pitbull" Freire showed he's at a different level. Imada, a dynamic submission specialist, chose to stand with Freire. Pitbull landed a super-athletic flying knee, Imada froze in place and then ate a left hook before falling to his back. Pitbull gots the TKO win at 2:53 of the first round in the Bellator Season 4 lightweight semifinal.
Pitbull, 25, looks like a super prospect and may be the only guy under contract with Bellator, who can give the champ Alvarez, a dangerous challenge. Freire (10-1) will face the winner of Lloyd Woodard and Michael Chandler. That semi goes down next week at Bellator 40.
Freire and his younger brother, Patricio have combined to go 25-2 to start their MMA careers.
Saunders makes Lee a bloody mess
Matt Sung Lee was looking for one last shot at some big fights, but he ran into the wrong guy on the feet. Lee had to face last second fill-in Ben Saunders and after 11-plus minutes of fighting he was left looking like a horror flick victim. Saunders' elbows opened cuts over both of Lee's eyes, and blood was flowing from the South Korean's nose forcing a doctor's stoppage at 1:24 of third round.
Saunders, an "Ultimate Fighter" alum, was cut after losing lost two straight with the UFC. He was 3-3 with the UFC, mainly because of poor takedown defense.
At 6-foot-3, he's gigantic for weight class and knows how to use that height and length advantage. Lee, a smallish, doughy looking welterweight tried to stand with Saunders and was in trouble from the opening seconds.
Saunders (10-3-2, 3-3 UFC) closed spaced early and looked to work along the cage. The big guy crushed Lee's nose in the first and ripped open a good-sized cut next to his right eye in the second. So much blood was flowing that it appeared Saunders, who had it all over the side of his head and down his chest, must've been cut too. But it wasn't the case.
Lee's corner begged the physician in attendance to let the fight go into the third round. The doctor relented, but when Saunders landed a huge right elbow out of the clinch with four minutes left in the fight, it was less than 20 seconds later that the doc waved off the fight. The cut over left eye spurted blood quickly and that side of Lee's face was almost covered in crimson 10 seconds later.

"Tom Cruise doesn't gear up, why should I?" Okay let's not disrespect any member of the motorcycling community here, but Tom has more than one questionable idea in his head… Getting back to motorcycles: The cool thing about motorcycle gear is that it actually works. MotoGP riders fall at incredible speeds only to get right up and continue riding (usually the riders survive crashes better than their bikes). I believe the statistic is that there has only been one MotoGP fatality on the track (in modern MotoGP racing) which is amazing [corrected!]! On the other hand motorcycle fatalities are on the rise: more people are taking to two wheels and crashing.You know the feeling: it's a beautiful day, warm, a little sticky, and you want to go for a ride… Just a quick one. You don't need all your gear right? Are boots and gloves and jacket really necessary? C'mon other states don't even require helmets!
Gloves can save your fingers, foot injuries are the most common motorcycling problem that quality boots can practically eliminate, and motorcycle jackets and pants can allow you to take a fall and get right back up again (as long as you don't hit anything stationary). CE rated armor is cheap and low profile (as long as your jacket fits correctly) – and we don't even need to talk about helmets here… Here's a link to a post that's been going around.
If you ever need extra motivation to gear-up, try this link from Urban Moto [WARNING: pretty shocking! Not work safe, or home safe, or normal person safe…]

World football governing body, FIFA, has banned a former president of the South African Football Association, Kirsten Nematandani, for five years in connection with a match-fixing scandal involving the country's national team.
A previous Fifa investigation found 'compelling evidence' that four South Africa friendlies prior to the World Cup on home soil had been fixed.
Fifa found Nematandani, who headed up the South African FA, SAFA, from twenty-zero-nine to twenty-thirteen, guilty of failing to report suspected corruption and for being uncooperative during the investigation.
He was one of three Africans to be sanctioned yesterday, along with former Zimbabwe FA official, Jonathan Musavengana and ex-Togo coach, Bana Tchanile.
Musavengana and Tchanile received life bans for bribery and corruption relating to the international friendlies in South Africa.

No Bake Protein Bites
So, I've been wanting to make these since my sister told me about them a couple months ago. Then, my sister in law made these and brought them to the beach, and they were so good! You guys know I am all about simple, easy, and healthy, and these protein bites are all three.
I actually made these the evening before we drove to Ohio. You know how crazy your house is the night before a long trip, right?! If I can make these in the midst of that chaos, I know you can whip these up in no time.
You can probably find the ingredients already in your pantry. The basic recipe consists of oatmeal, peanut butter, honey and chocolate chips. I also added vanilla, coconut and ground flaxseed. Add or omit whatever you like! Mix the ingredients all together, refrigerate for at least 10 minutes and then roll into balls. I've read that it's best to keep these in the fridge for up to a week, but I they would never last that long in my house!
Here's what you'll need:
1 cup of oatmeal (I used quick oats)
1/3 cup honey (or agave nectar)
1/2 cup of peanut butter
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1 tsp vanilla extract
Handful of coconut
Mix, refrigerate, shape, enjoy!
I'd love to hear how your wholesome treats come out and how they differ from these!

twisting the night away
I have decided to dismantle my website for now, as it was working a bit slowly, and also maybe it will make me spend some time revamping it and working out how to use Wordpress.
For now I intend to blog more frequently with latest stuff from work. So here is a recent cover for a '50s compilation!

Re: New owner/landlord isn't cashing rent checks
Posted by MDM on 2017/10/10 20:30:20
Ever thought about approaching the owner about paying you to leave?
Open the negotiations say at a payment worth 30 months of rent, placed in escrow, payable once you leave the property within 90 days of the money being deposited into escrow.

Was rushing to Suntec to meet my friend to pass her some dvds and vcds, the bus that I was in refused to close it's door properly. I believed it's a hazard to drive with a door that's not close properly, the jolly bus drive apologize and inform us that we gotto get down.
As it was my first time, I was wondering why passengers form a line and made their exit at the front, tapping their ezlink card and getting a bus ticket from the bus driver before they alight instead of leaving at the other exits.
I kinda "know" that there will be some sort of refunds and the refund should be made via rebate thru ezlink but I got no idea what is the bus driver handling out ... ticket to complain ?
Anyway i just follow suit and queue to get the ticket. It was bloody long and I was worried cos it look like it's going to rain and I dont want to get caught in the rain to my next destination after meeting my friend.
When I alighted, I took a good look at the ticket and realized it's a complimentary ride! Yeah the cheapo in me was cheering !!! Not too bad ! a free ride and a free ride ! hehehe if only it was one stop from my final destination, i would walk the rest of the way but then it was too far and the skies looked too gloomy.
The next ride came along fairly soon and I met my friend, gone for my next appointment and soon, my day activities came to an end. I board on another bus, heading home and I got a weird feeling.
I don't recall the last time I was in a bus that broke down before the journey's end. A crazy thought came into my mind ... what if the bus that I am taking home breaks down too ?? hehe I made my plans in case that scenario happens, then forgot about it and start checking out fellow passengers.
AND what Do U know ? at the bus stop before my final stop, I smelled something burnt. I was seating at the back, near the engine and my seat was getting hot. My sense was buzzing and the feeling to leave this bus was overwhelming !
I jumped out of my seat and rush to the exit. Just when my feet left the bus, I heard a loud explosion. The seat that i was in was in flame and the passenger that was beside me was being burnt alive. I stared at it in disbelief ... it could have been me
Nah, it didn't happen that way la. But hey if U believe for a moment, please let me know : ) The Burnt smell was true and so was me jumping out of the seat as it was getting hot and I dont want my butt to get damaged by the heat.
I got a feeling that the afternoon event is repeating itself again and I waited near the exit. True enough, after one or two seconds later, the bus driver broke the news that the bus is down and we gotto alight right now.
Guess who is among the first to get the free ticket from the bus driver ?
But I am very amused by the events that happened today. I don't recall the last time I was in a bus that broke down and it occurred twice today. What are the odds ?

Yesterday was the anniversary of my initiation into my college fraternity. I contacted some of my chapter brothers and reminisced, as we do every year. Phi Kappa Psi was the most formative positive influence in my life.
Later in the day I received a call from fraternity headquarters, as I do a few times a year, asking for a gift to the fraternity's scholarship fund. With such a warm feeling already in my heart, making a larger gift felt better than it ever has. It still feels good today to know I made the pledge yesterday.
As someone who makes cold calls, I appreciate how much "warmer" the call will be received if it starts out with a connection like, "I just wanted to reach out on the anniversary of your initiation!"
What are the warm moments when we can reach out to our donors and make them feel like we remember them?
- The anniversary of their first gift?
- The anniversary of their discharge from your hospital?
- The receipt of their 10th gift?
Ask them to remember what prompted that first gift, or how they've been recovering since their discharge. Let them know what advances you've made in the fight against their disease since then, and what projects you're working on now. They will be in a much warmer frame of mind when you ask them if they'd be willing to consider another gift now to push the project further.
There are many advantages to making a soft phone call like this:
- You can confirm their mailing address.
- You can ask for, or confirm, an email address.
- Asking their opinion on the projects they'd like to fund allows you to better personalize messages to them in the future.
- A pleasant phone conversation, even one that doesn't result in a gift, will increase the likelihood of a positive response by mail, email, or phone next time.
- Their comments – their word choices – are something your copywriter needs to hear and understand. It will make future postal, email and phone scripts work better.
These are not the kind of calls to assign to the lowest bidder in an RFP. These are calls to be made by development staff, a few each day. It will keep you in better touch with your donors. It will gather useful data. And it will raise more money.
How are you using your data, and your phone, for best results?

Lothal Speeder Bike
One-man vehicles designed for speed, Lothal Speeder Bikes featured a white color scheme and were outfitted with forward blaster cannons. Cargo could be attached to the rear of the hovering vehicles and moved quickly, though the real value of Imperial Speeder Bikes came from their ability to chase suspected rebels or suspects.
- Length: 4.4m ,

Stormtroopers are elite shock troops fanatically loyal to the Empire and impossible to sway from the Imperial cause. They wear imposing white armor, which offers a wide range of survival equipment and temperature controls to allow the soldiers to survive in almost any environment. Stormtroopers wield blaster rifles and pistols with great skill, and attack in hordes to overwhelm their enemies. Along with standard stormtroopers, the Empire has organized several specialized units, including snowtroopers and scout troopers.
Lothal Capital City
Galactic Empire
Ezra Bridger
Growing up on his own during the age of the Empire, Ezra Bridger relied on his street smarts -- and subconscious Force abilities -- to survive. He became a con artist and small-time thief, doing what he needed to get by on his home planet Lothal. But this reality also hardened Ezra, who by the time he was 14 years old, had little trust for anyone. That would change with his introduction to the Ghost crew, a small band of rebels fighting back against the Empire. Ezra came to believe in their cause, and saw that he could help change the galaxy for the better. And with the help of Kanan Jarrus, he began to learn the ways of the Jedi.
Kanan Jarrus
Not every Jedi perished in Order 66. Kanan Jarrus survived the Emperor's purge, going underground for years and hiding the truth about who he really was. To keep his past a secret, Kanan carried a blaster -- an uncommon practice for a Jedi -- and used a lightsaber that had to be assembled. He was a leader among the Ghost crew, a small group of rebels looking to strike back against the Empire, and with the emergence of the Force-sensitive Ezra, once again embraced his identity as a Jedi Knight.

A couple of days ago we had dinner at this old restaurant, Naga Garden, in my hometown. I remember my parents scrambling to buy toasted siopao (bread stuffed with pork and a quarter of an egg) to take to my grandparents when I was younger. Buying pasalubong or a little trinket when visiting someone is a common practice here in the Philippines and in my family especially so I still distinctly remember walking into the restaurant almost every weekend.
Aside from a paint job and some new chairs, everything is pretty much the same. It's the same lady who greets you with a smile by the counter, the same waiters (with the exception of a few of course), the same menu, the same recipe, the same homey feel you get when you walk in the door until you finish your meal.
Although there are a lot of newer restaurants offering similar food at probably a more intimidating ambiance (and price, ehem!), nothing beats the hearty feeling I get when I sit down on one of those chairs just like I used to when I was 6 or 7, with pig tails and in a princess dress.

We are having a few days of, because of the Easter holdays.
For me and my family this holiday means a lot.
We are celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Thanks to this act, every person can have eternal life in heaven. All that is needed is to repent from the wrong things in life and believe that Jesus is Lord, part of the Holy Trinity.
14 years ago my mother received a tract from a student of her's. This brochure was describing the basic christian statements and at the end there was a prayer. My mother prayed so that God would be present in her life. During the same night my mother had a vision. A painting of Jesus we had on the wall, started glowing with light. When she touched the painting, she felt warmth and peasfulness. Out of the painting came out the hand of Jesus, inviting towards himself.
I have been raised to respect the spiritual things. That is why when me and my brother heard the story, whe knew it wasn't a fiction or an exageration. Since then our family is trying to live a life accoring the Bible principles.
Christianity is not a dead religion with rules and only historical background. Jesus Christ lives in every believer. And Jesus is the only way to heaven.
No other alternative, god or religion.
Christ himself stated that in the gospel of John, chapeter 14: verse 6
' I am the the way, the truth and the life; noone can come before the Father, except through me:'
This is the essence of Easter.
It is not so important to have all the necessary groceries on the table.
Neither is so important to arrange the Easter rabbit with the eggs.
Everything fades away when comapred with the faith in the risen Lord.

So about that last post
I thought about it, I really did. I thought about either finishing up an old story, starting a new story, finding some awesome thing to talk about to really be worthy of a hundredth post. Then I thought again, you know my first post is just a placeholder post, nothing special, nothing really in-depth or involved just a post to have something on your blog to start with, so you could see what it looked like. So I considered it, I really did. And I decided yes, just a simple place holder something to mark the occasion and just like the 2nd post on the blog let's talk here.
I am both happy and a little ashamed. Let's be real you've seen what I post either here or at the ponderings, I should have hit 100 posts years ago. But of course this is supposed to be my venting blog, which means I was either able to vent without cursing or I didn't need to vent as much as I thought I would. Well venting and horny blog, I posted a story but that had been done, it just needed editing I just haven't been in the right mind-set to write about sex. So going forward, I think I got up to 30 or 50 posts last year for this blog, which was pretty good. I want to write 100 posts in 2017, but if I can get up to 150 it would be even better because it would mean that while I may not be venting I am talking. Hopefully being understood or even if I am making absolutely no sense that folks feel free to say something, a critique, agreement, your own take on the subject.
Mainly because interaction is what we all thrive on isn't it? Figuring out the waves and currents of the world around us as we bump into people with different views, ideals, and understandings. Or maybe just different upbringings but similar ideals, views and desires. My fellow gamers, fellow movie watchers, fellow comic book readers, sci-fi lovers, and bumps on this giant floating ball of water and dirt we call earth. As always thank you for coming by, thanks for reading, for those who like I appreciate it, for those who comment I enjoy talking with you.
No I'm not always nice, but I try to be fair. You can have or make your own point, doesn't mean I have to agree with you. I believe in freedom of speech, we can all talk, we may not agree but we can agree that we have a right to our own thoughts within reason. And that reason is up to the discretion of the person we are speaking with, always has been, always will be.

New release: How We Quit the Forest
A flock of sparrows (click for a larger photograph).
Special thanks to the following ~twittery birds~ for photographing today. Clockwise: Allegory Malaprop, Mery Gildea, Arcana Dagger, Quen Morrisey, Sakuradawn Lei, SunShine Kukulcan, Stein Shilova, Ashia Tomsen. ♥
hyasynth describes How We Quit the Forest thus:
Noam Sprocket threw pictures of Rasputina at me until I gave in. (And he agreed to do the bustle sculpts!) This is western romantic gothic Victorian with many ways to wear the nine pieces — and the tops look REALLY cute with jeans.
Noam did the hair (called Thursday), and it's on sale at ~silentsparrow~ as well as Gritty Kitty. The hat and feathers all color change — it's the UBER top hat of doom! Available with the hair or on it's own now.
The nine pieces include an undershirt, shirt and corset-jacket, stockings, arm warmers, glitch pants and a lower bodice on the pants layer, a lolita skirt and a long skirt, and sells for 500L at ~silentsparrow~.

Takeover at Arsenal? Pure summer bollocks !!
It's incredible - the magical creation of mystic worlds and suspension of disbelief almost makes it beleivable ... almost. No - I'm not talking about the latest Harry Potter book - but the daily Arsenal takeover saga in the papers.
I know it's summertime - so we know that journos will make plenty of stuff up - but the daily rumour mill surrounding possbile takeovers at Arsenal are getting weirder and weirder.
Today it's eccentric F1 owner Bernie Ecclestone who is quoted as saying "he interested in anything as long as its CHEAP enough" and "I do go to Chelsea when there is nothing else to do".
There you go - a casual newbie Chelsea fan who'll buy anything cheap - that obviously proof positive that he's on the inside track to buying Arsenal eh? NOT!
Elsewhere we read that the reclusive American Stan Kroenke has been accumulating shares to add to his 12%-14% holding - oh except for the facts being that only about 24 Arsenal shares have been bought/sold on the PLUS exchange in total during JULY !!
TWENTY FOUR !! There are 62,219 total shares on offer (making Arsenal a £450m company) and my calculations show that if ALL 24 were sold to Kroenke then it will take the American a further 77 years to reach a 50% shareholding at that rate.
Throw in the fact that you have a report that Arsenal board not keen to sell because they beleive that an overseas invester will want to take more money out than they put in - financial investors are likely to be treating the club as a business.
Of course the prime mover, motivator and PR spinner in all this is former vice-chairman David Dein who simply could not take the boards decision last March and resigned in a fit of pique - and has been desperately aggitating ever since.
But, Arsenal don't need the money. The club is financially stronger now than at any stage in their history. There are other clubs with more cash of course - Chelsea, Man United, Liverpool, Barcelona - but that's always been the case.
But with the new 60,000 seat stadium functioning, and a major property development in London coming on stream, the Arsenal Football Club is in sound health and is not "cash strapped" - it's soundly managed to spend within it's operating budget.
The current board are running things for AFC's benefit - not to line their own pockets (they have not taken a dividend on their shares for over TWENTY years) - and they've carefully plotted and manouvered Arsenal to take best advantage of the current financial climate - upgrading the ground while not risking the clubs future.
IF Arsenal can find an investor who wants to be part of creating positive conditions for the continuation of the football club - ahead of returning profits back to their own pockets - then I'm sure that he/she will be welcomed with open arms.
But it NOT be a hostile takeover because the shares are tightly held, and so Arsenal Football Club is not a pretty bauble to be plucked or a financial opportunity to be exploited. Rather it is a football club whose main purpose is to play football at the highest levels - not to chase profits for American, Russian or English fatcat (and suntanned) pockets.
With Arsenal taking a prudent financial approach that protects them if and when the TV rights bubble bursts - you can be sure that the club that was created in 1888 in a pub across the road from the Royal Arsenal factory will be around for many more years to come.
To write anything else is journolistic bollocks - a cheap headline because the transfer market is not moving - and simply published in order to sell a few more papers or get a few more hits for their website.

I snapped these pictures a few weeks ago on a Saturday in downtown Fort Worth. We took Elliott to see his first movie in the theater, The Princess and the Frog, and he loved it! Keeping with the cajun theme for the day we had lunch at Razoo's where Elliott scored a big balloon. He chose red. He was tired and wasn't being particularly obedient that afternoon and he insisted on holding the string all by himself. We must have warned him 50 times that if he let go his balloon would fly away. I was sure that it would happen, but figured the lesson would need to be learned eventually…I mean, doesn't every kid go through it? But, Elliott kept a death grip on his balloon and we made it all the way home with it still in tact! Despite his less than pleasant pre-nap mood there is still something so sweet about these photos of a little boy with his prized big red balloon!

I had another dream about triplets. This one was a little more dreamish and not realistic, but still my third dream on the subject. This time a friend who actually does have multiples (twins) was in my dream. In the dream these multiples were triplets combining her first and second pregnancies into one. She has twin boys and an older girl. In my dream she had 2 girls and a boy--hence the more dreamish dream. She had me hold them at the same time to give me practice. So though this wasn't as realistic and something I could totally see happening, I do find it odd that I keep having dreams like this.
Confession time: I had the Quits dolls and used to pretend that my barbies had multiple births. With 5 to choose from sometimes they only had one, other times they had 2, 3, 4, or 5. Now I don't think you realize how cool these dolls were. They had numbers on their diapers on their bums and thier girl dolls had full on pig tails though they were babies and the boys also had a full head of hair. They were pretty amazing!

Well, yes, I'm a Procrastinator Extraordinaire – as some of you will have figured out by now. It doesn't take much each day to derail me from my good intentions. Pretty much ANYTHING on the computer will distract me from a new day's resolution. Reading blogs – never mind writing them. Check Facebook. Check Twitter. Check email. (Lather, rinse, repeat.) Play around with netball photos and the website. Check the newspaper online. Check out my favourite Timewaster sites.
There is so much I should be doing, that I have pushed my writing to the side, and even been contemplating a blogging sabbatical . Hell, even an INTERNET sabbatical. (This house will never get cleaned, and the renovations never done otherwise.)
Today, though (while still procrastinating about my procrastinating) I got completely sidetracked with making a Watermark for my photos. Oh BushBabe – it wasn't a priority today, but I couldn't help myself once given the instructions in your post. Suddenly the idea of doing a watermark on my photos gained the highest priority.
I even went font hunting. (Love this site – Abstract Fonts )
After much trial and error, I've come up with once I like.
I think.
Now I'm not so sure.
Does this look better?
Is it opaque enough? What else could I have done to it to make it watermark-y?
Or what about something like this…?
Actually, I like that last one. But how do I make it look good on a dark background?
Should it be bigger.. or smaller?
Should I even bother? I mean, my photos aren't that good.
Well.. I'm now awaiting BB's instructions on how to make it into a photoshop Action. And hoping that somewhere down the track this photoshop experimentation leads to something worthwhile that doesn't make me feel quite so much like I've procrastinated the day away!

Week 1
Lecture: Introduction to Music Research
Keep in mind these memorable quotes from your reading:
"One of the most basic rules of writing is that an author never make statements he or she is not prepared to defend" (p. 4).
"Readers have a right to believe that what they are reading is based on more than the author's opinion, even when it is clearly an opinion piece" (p. 17).
"Those authors "who merely vent unfounded opinions and gut feelings (in essence, running off at the pen) are wasting the reader's time" (p. 17).
"never make the reader doubt your ability" (p. 18).
"Make it concise, make it elegant, make it compelling" (p. 20).
Lecture: Writing
Those who have already taken a course with me will find this familiar.
Read it again anyway!!!

A. Scholarly writing: Choose any topic related to music education and write one page (seriously, ONLY one page) in what you consider to be a scholarly writing style. Apply all content from the Writing page to your paper. You will have to be direct and concise in order to address your topic in one page. Identify your topic immediately and don't waste space using long phrases and flowery language. Sometimes it is difficult to be concise. You must leave out all unnecessary words and filler phrases.
Woodrow Wilson was once asked how long it took him to prepare his speeches. He said: "It depends. If I am to speak ten minutes, I need a week for preparation; if fifteen minutes, three days; if half an hour, two days; if an hour, I am ready now."
Use one inch margins, 12-point Times New Roman font, and double spaced. Other than that, I will not be particularly picky about formatting.
That begins next week!!
Submit your paper in Word document form. Name the file Assignment1_YourName and submit by the deadline on Sunday at midnight.
C. For your sake (and mine ;-): Each time you receive feedback from me or your peers on an assignment or a discussion post, keep a running list of your writing errors to use as a checklist on the next submission. It's just silly to keep making the same errors over and over. This Writing Checklist will serve as a reminder to check the specific errors that you have made in the past. Here is a template for you to use. This is not a suggestion. You will also turn this in later in Week 8.
These two assignments (B & C) will be combined as Assignment 8 and turned in during that week. Do not wait until Week 8 to begin these. The purpose of compiling them as you go is to help you with your writing and understanding of research terms.
Discussion 1:
After reading Lecture 1, relate an example for each of Roger Bacon's "4 Chief Obstacles to the Truth." I have provided one example for each in the lecture notes. Try to be as specific as possible, with a personal example or one you have observed. (Note: don't use the examples I have given you in the lecture; use your own. Also, try to use a different example than those that have already been posted). Your original discussion post should completely answer the question; provide 4 examples. For your responses, analyze your peers' examples for accurate categorization and offer additional comments.
Note: Please recopy each of the 4 Chief Obstacles prior to your answers for clarity (and it helps all of us to review them ;-) Also, be sure that your examples specify the "truth" that is being thwarted. In other words, your answers are examples of obstacles. What is the truth that is being obstructed?
See the rubric in the Discussion section for point values. Normally, the sooner you post your original answer, the more points you get. However, since this is a short week, I will give everyone the maximum points who post their original answer by Friday. The deadline for all responses is Sunday at midnight.
Please review all instructions about the Discussions before posting.
Week 2
Lecture: APA Style and Formatting
My Word!
Lecture: How to Find Stuff
Music Research Journals
APA Assessments (Assignment 2)
These assessments are in the APA Style section of your Blackboard menu.
When you click on one of the assessments, you may get an error message that says:
Popup Blocked
You can just click the button that says "Launch Course" and all will be well!
Answer the questions in each assessment (there aren't many). If you miss some, you can take the quiz as many times as you want in order to get a good grade. These grades will show up in the gradebook in Blackboard just like the rest and will be averaged together for one major grade.
Find the answers for these quizzes in the Tutorials, Quick Guides, and in your APA Manual.
My hope is that these APA resources and quizzes will help you to avoid writing and formatting errors in all of your future papers and assignments.
For next week, be thinking about choosing a research topic.
Bellman, Chapter 8, "Style," pp. 135-160 APA Manual, pp. 87-114
Assignment 2: APA Style
We now have some valuable tools (thanks to the library) to build APA formatting/writing skills. The first step is for you to get an overview. This may be a review for some of you who have been in the program for a while; to others, it is new territory.
1. In the menu to your left in Blackboard, choose APA Style2. Tutorials3. Getting Started with APA Style
1. In the menu to your left in Blackboard, choose APA Style
2. Tutorials
3. Getting Started with APA Style
Go through the tutorial and make some notes as you will be responsible for all of this information from this point forward.
Follow the instructions on the left side of this page and complete the APA Assessments by Sunday at midnight.
Note: If you have any problems completing the assessments, or if they won't properly load or show as completed, try a different browser.
Discussion 2:
Everyone is pretty tech-savvy these days. I'm sure you have bookmarked some great resources on the internet that would be of interest to your fellow classmates. List 5 web pages or sites that could be useful in a research endeavor. They might include sources of data, instructions or how-tos regarding research, link lists, information on music education topics, or any page that would be a worthy bookmark for this course. For each link, give the URL, a brief description of the site/page, and why it would be useful in carrying on music education research.
Note: Please do not include those sites that are useful, but do not relate to music education research such as vendors' sites, blogs, forums, how-to sites, etc.
Week 3
In all your writing, be sure to format everything in APA Style. Refer to your APA Style manual for all of those devilish details! Note: If you have trouble finding any of the course readings, post your question in the Ask Dr. J forum. For these questions, I'm going to ask your classmates to give you some assistance, so if you can offer some help, please do so. Don't post a direct URL link to help others, but offer directions on how to find the source (or where you found it) if others need assistance. Lecture: Research Topic .For examples on focused topics, go to the TSU Library page: www.tarleton.edu/libraryIn the Discovery @ Tarleton blank, type in a search word that is of interest to you.Look through the list of articles that have been written about that topic. Notice how specific the titles are! Lecture: Types of research Which type of research would your project be? Note: Now is the time to begin searching for sources on your research topics (research that has already been done on the subject). Review How to Find Stuff for assistance. This is the best way to be informed and to be able to focus your research question. Also, your assignment next week will be a literature review, so be sure to begin an Annotated Bibliography for your own use.
In all your writing,
Refer to your APA Style manual for all of those devilish details!
Lecture: Research Topic
For examples on focused topics, go to the TSU Library page: www.tarleton.edu/library
In the Discovery @ Tarleton blank, type in a search word that is of interest to you.
Look through the list of articles that have been written about that topic.
Notice how specific the titles are!
Lecture: Types of research
Which type of research would your project be?
From the list under Course Reading, choose 5 articles, use the library databases to locate them, and read them.
Assignment 3:
From the course readings below (at the bottom of this page), choose 2 articles that interest you. Read them carefully and write one page on each one that addresses these questions:
What was the research question for each article?
What was the rationale for each article?
What type of research was used in each study?
What test was used to answer the research question?
What were the basic findings of each study?
Use this Assignment Template to get you started. This is formatted in APA style, but without an abstract or other sections that will not be necessary until later. Give your paper a title like "A Review of Two Articles" so that your running head can be the same throughout. Use in-text citations when you refer to your two articles and include the two articles in your reference section at the end of your paper. You can use headings to separate the two sections. Don't forget a brief conclusion.
I challenge you in this assignment NOT to use the words 'I' or 'my' in your writing. Try to be as objective as possible in your assessment of each article.
In addition to the lecture this week, review the Writing lecture from Week 1 for guidelines on academic writing.
Submit your paper in Word document form. Name the file Assignment3_YourName and submit by the deadline on Sunday at midnight. Do not submit as two separate documents, but as one Word document. It is not necessary to have two separate cover sheets, etc. Excluding your cover sheet and a reference page at the end, you should have only 2 pages of text. I will not grade an assignment that exceeds that amount, even if only by a line or two. Make it fit!
Discussion 3:
After reading the lecture for this week, come up with two research topics that you are interested in exploring. For each research topic, devise a research question and explain your rationale. What test will you use to answer the question? Follow the guidelines included in this week's lecture. Post this information in the discussion forum.
You should respond to your classmates by helping them refine their research questions and to choose which one would work best in a research project. Also be sure that they have answered the bold questions above in their posts.
Remember, a rationale is not why you are interested in a topic or why you want to know, but why the study is important to the discipline and justification as to why it should be done.
Remember that your topic should be very specific, so narrow your focus. Your research question should also be one that can be measured and/or tested. Go back and re-read the lecture on Research Topic to test your ideas before submitting them.
See the rubric in the Discussion section for point values. The sooner you post your original answer, the more points you get. The deadline for all responses is Sunday at midnight.
Week 4
Reread "The Author's Opinion: Clarity and Restraint" beginning on p. 17 of your text
Lecture: Parts of a Research Paper
I'm not a Twitter fan, but just like our assignment to write ONLY one page, brevity requires clarity.
You have to really understand your topic to answer these questions in 140 characters each.
Remember that spaces and punctuation also count as characters.
Use "Word Count" under the Review tab in Word to get an exact count.
Can't wait to see what you come up with!
Notes on Assignment 4
Having graded many of these in the past, here are some writing/formatting errors that students make that cause their grade to plummet (that are easy to avoid):
Using direct quotes when paraphrase or synthesis is possible. This is a biggie!
Capitalizing every word in the titles in their reference list. Check out your APA manual, p. 50 for examples.
Stating your opinions or making editorial comments in the Literature Review section
Leaving out words, typos in sentences (PROOF-READ!!)
Not using a title on the first page
Not right-justifying the page numbers (all the way to the right 1-inch margin)
Using contractions
Using personal pronouns
APA Manual: Chapter 3 (pp. 61-86)
Phillips: Chapter 3 "Reading Research" (pp. 30-45)
Write an introduction to your paper and a literature review of at least 6 articles based on your research topic (2000 words). Do not use the articles from last week unless they are integral to your topic. Six is the minimum, but you should use all that inform your topic. Use the "Discovery @ Tarleton" search box from the Tarleton library page (www.tarleton.edu/library), using key words for a good place to begin. Refer to the "Literature Review" section of this weeks' lecture for additional information on how to write a literature review.
Use this Research Proposal Template. This is the template for you to use for your final research proposal, but for this assignment, you can just delete any unnecessary portions. However, don't use "Literature Review" as your running head or title. Use the title of your paper. Include the resources you have chosen in the References list at the end of your paper. Notice that this assignment will be graded with a different rubric (the same one that will be used for your final proposal (Assignment 7).
Before submitting this assignment, I will also be asking you to submit your papers through Turnitin. Although I believe all of you to be persons of integrity, checking your writing this way helps you to know what text you may be using that should be cited.
Turnitin Instructions
Your Class ID is 17779307
The Enrollment Key is TSUMM
After reviewing the Turnitin report, submit your paper in Word document form. Name the file Assignment4YourName and submit by the deadline on Sunday at midnight.
Discussion 4:
For your original post, choose one of your two research topics from last week. Give your research project a title.
Create a Twitter post (don't post it on Twitter) consisting of 140 characters for each of the four parts listed below. You do not restate the parts, but they are to be evident when stated:
The four parts:
1. An Introduction/Background statement that clearly communicates the need for this study
2. Thesis Statement, Question, or Objective - clear, crisp, and unambiguously stated
3. What is the method, test, or tool that you will use to prove or disprove your thesis statement, question, or objective?
4. State the expectation that the results of the method, test, or tool will support or refute the thesis statement, question, or objective
Feel free to include hashtags for our benefit, understanding, or amusement.
For your responses, critique others' posts. Make suggestions regarding clarity, "do-ability" (is this project possible/reasonable/valuable?) Is the plan as outlined complete? Do you detect possible problems? Remember you are not just trying to find fault, but are offering assistance. Read this information about Critiques before posting. Remember that only useful responses will receive credit. "That's a great topic . . . " posts, although encouraging, will not be counted towards your grade.
Week 5
No lecture this week.
Depending upon your specific research type,
refer to your Phillips text for guidelines in constructing your research proposal.
As you read, continue constructing your Glossary of Research Terminology.
After receiving feedback (from instructor or peers), keep adding to your Writing Checklist
You will turn in both of these in a single document next week as Assignment 8.
Research proposal first draft (3000 words)
Use this Research Proposal Template.
Note: 'First draft' does not imply that it should be incomplete or lack proper formatting. It just means that you will have one more opportunity to revise before receiving a final grade. Don't forget to write your abstract! Be aware that you may need to add more references to your literature review if you did the minimum required for Assignment #4. I will not provide additional feedback to what you turned in last week (Introduction and Literature Review), but just to the new material.
Before submitting this assignment, please submit your papers through Turnitin once more.
If your report shows in the yellow range or above, revise your paper before submitting (you may have too many direct quotes or used others' content inappropriately). After reviewing the Turnitin report, submit your paper by the deadline on Sunday at midnight. I will read through your papers and give some general feedback. However, I will not give you a grade on your proposal until you submit the revised version at the end of Week 7.
Discussion 5:
Post your literature review in the discussion forum. Your original post grade this week will be based upon your Critiques of your classmates' lit reviews. Choose at least three (this is the minimum for your grade, but more feedback is welcome and appreciated) to critique. The best suggestions are those that actually cause your classmates to change something! Please do not just find one or two small edits and call it a day! If you do, you will receive a low score on the discussion rubric. Pretend you are me and do a thorough critique! I will more strictly apply the "responses too brief or add little information" on this discussion assignment. If you read a critique point that you are not sure is correct (it happens every year), please verify it yourself! Please do not attached Word documents to posts.
Week 6
Revise your research proposal
Be sure to revisit this link:
Final Draft Checklist and Where I Spend Most of My Red Ink
Note: The final proposal is due on Friday of next week, not Sunday.
Phillips, Chapter 16, "Integrating Research and Teaching," (pp. 332-342)
Assignment 6:
A. Revise your research proposal
Based upon your classmates' critiques in the discussion forum this week, make revisions to your research proposal. Do not try to submit this. You will not turn in the revised version until next week.
Discussion 6:
Post your research proposal to the discussion forum. Your discussion grade this week will be based upon your Critiques of your classmates' proposals. Choose at least three (this is the minimum for your grade, but more feedback is welcome and appreciated) to critique. Choose different classmates to critique than in Discussion 5 if you can. Provide extensive suggestions to your classmates that will help them improve their proposals. I will more strictly apply the "responses too brief or add little information" on this discussion assignment. If you read a critique point that you are not sure is correct (it happens every year), please verify it yourself! Please do not attached Word documents to posts.
Week 7
No lecture or reading this week.
However . . . .,
Please take the time to review the lecture below
to ensure that you have
met the requirements for your final paper.
Research Proposal
Final project due Friday, May 4 at midnight
Assignment 7:
Turn in your final research proposal
Apply all feedback that you have received from me and from your classmates. Then re-read aloud your entire proposal. Make final edits and corrections. Submit your paper in Word document form. Name the file ResearchProposal_YourName and submit by the deadline on Friday at midnight.
Discussion 7:
Based upon your reading last week ("Integrating Research and Teaching"), identify three studies that you could do associated with your own unique teaching situation. Try not to duplicate others' ideas. Everyone's situation is different, so be very specific. Give each of your three studies a title and a brief explanation of your rationale. Remember that rationale explains why the study is important to the discipline of music education and why it should be done.
Post your list in the Discussion tab. This discussion will be graded for completion only.
Week 8
Challenge: How much did you learn in this course?
Research I Crossword Puzzle
Let me know if any of you are able to finish it
Assignment 8:
Turn in your Glossary of Research Terminology and your Writing Checklist (see Week 2). Combine your glossary and checklist into one Word document (you can just copy and paste your checklist to the bottom of the glossary. Name the file Assignment8_YourName and submit by the deadline on Thursday at midnight.
Discussion 8:
Please take this opportunity to share with me and your classmates your reflections regarding this semesters' coursework, the master's program in general, and anything we can do to improve your learning experience as you continue in the program.
This discussion will not be graded, but your participation will be of value to the faculty to continue to improve our program. Thank you for your feedback!
It has been a privilege to have each of you in this course. Enjoy a well-deserved break!

Documents size getting bigger suddenlyhaneesh iqbal noormohammed Aug 12, 2010 7:33 AM (in response to password )
I have not faced such issues and just a small thought from my end.
I don't think the document size changes because of the change in the environment. Can you check if the data source connections (ODBC etc.) point to the same DB server in both the environments.
Since this is happening in multiple documents, I guess it could be due to pointing to incorrect DB server (like Prod instead of Dev).

Melody and Christina! thank you both! awesome job! I like how Melody brought in many examples and scenarios and even included the kids in our codependent lives. I like how she says we need relationships. I will work on it. I had figured i was done, but I won't know if I am healed if I don't try! and Christina, you are perfect for narrating Melody's work. much love for you 2! xoxo

Melodies first book, "Codependant No More", was suggested to me early in my recovery from drug, alcohol and caretaking addictions. I read it about ten years later, thinking it was not what I had needed at the time when it was suggested. Oh the endless misery it could have saved me if I'd have read it sooner. Don't wait to read both of these books. Please read them both now as though your life depended on it, because it very well may. My life has always been rather charmed. I almost felt bad for having problems getting my life together because from outside appearances, I had no reason to not thrive. But my life, my very existence was never about me, outside of the self loathing I was partaking in. Melody opened my eyes to the real root of all my problems in her books. I gained control of my life, for the first time in my life, due to the knowledge within her writing that I gained and applied. I'm now in control of how I feel, what I do, why I do it, how I do it, and no one can cause me to be anxious or angry or any other feeling. I feel like some kind of wise ninja, lol... Thank you so much Melody.
