I bought the watch too thinking that I would use that after my introductory subscription ended to the website. At lest then my $350 investment would still be useful and not sitting in a drawer… Continue reading

The majority are from some one pinning my leg down as they pass. From my knees down I look like a leopard, black, blue, and yellow. I can’t heal as fast as I am getting new bruises. I had to find… Continue reading

There are a few example out there already for ContentSource but after trying to use them I found some glaring omissions. For instance, two of the examples I looked at use InsertForm. I just assumed that because we were using the namespace System.Windows.Forms that is where it was coming from. Because the example were in the 2.0 Framework I thought maybe I was just missing some thing. So when I… Continue reading

What can I do to increase my wind or stamina in my Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class? This is a goal of mine that has been plaguing me. Two things I might note right off. Do not tie your belt tight. Keep it lose and down toward your hips. Second don’t tie your pants tight. I noticed that both seem to constrict my breathing while rolling. I’ve decided to try jump roping… Continue reading | 3 Comments
