Mhave
The article begins by letting us know that there is some Great News!!!! about the company "mHave". It gushingly describes mHave's products, provides us with the company's website, etc., using all the usual corporate public-relations jargon. I think this is just an advert for a non-notable company.

Louisville RiverFrogs

The Louisville RiverFrogs were a professional ice hockey team competing in the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL), which was a mid-level professional American hockey league with teams from all over the United States as well as one franchise from Canada. The team was based in Louisville, Kentucky and played from 1995 to 1998. Their home venue was Broadbent Arena (nicknamed "The Swamp" for their duration; capacity 6,600) at the Kentucky Exposition Center.

At the conclusion of the 1997–1998 season, the franchise was sold and moved to Florida to become the Miami Matadors for a year before moving to Ohio as the Cincinnati Cyclones in 2001. The Cyclones are still currently playing in the ECHL. They started out playing their games in Cincinnati Gardens, but they now play at the Heritage Bank Center. The Cyclones are also the minor league affiliate to the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League (AHL), as well as the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League (NHL).

The team's mascot was Rowdy River Frog. The RiverFrogs games were locally known for the amount of non-hockey-related entertainment at shows, including a giant frog blimp, hot tubs, and concession booths.

Talk:Lawrence Taylor

MVP Award
The entry said that Taylor was one of only two defensive players to win the AP's Most Valuable Player award. In fact, he was the fourth the entry listing the winners (NFL Most Valuable Player Award shows DE Gino Marchetti in 1958, LB Joe Schmidt in 1960, and DT Alan Page in 1971. I updated the article accordingly. Anson2995 15:36, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

 * The information on Marchetti and Schmidt is false. Neitehr of them were teh NFL MVP. They were teh AP defensive linemen of the year.12.41.183.194 (talk) 21:57, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Alan Page was the first AP MVP that was a defensive player, L.T. was the second.72.0.36.36 (talk) 16:32, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

the only defensive player to ever win the award unanimously?
I'd like to see the verification of this. Is this claiming he got all the votes in the AP MVP or that he was the only guy to win and MVP that year. Phil Simms won the NEA MVP, a recognized MVP award, recognized by the NFL record and Fact book. I think the word "consensus" rather than "unanimously" would be accurate.72.0.36.36 (talk) 16:46, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Film Credit
"In 2004 Taylor began trying to start a career in acting, appearing in the Oliver Stone movie, Any Given Sunday." How does this work if AGS was filmed in 1999.
 * Correct, changed in the article. Quadzilla99 12:48, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Drug Abuse
Similar problem: "After admitting to cocaine abuse in 1999, he was suspended from football for 30 days in 1988 after failing a drug test." This sentence doesn't make sense for obvious reasons. --Whit 20:40, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

I think it should be noted that LT changed the way that teams now pick a QB. They are now forced to pick QBs that are bigger and stronger vs. accuracy and arm strength. Note what LT did to Neil Lomax, Joe Theisman and Ron Jaworski.

Photo
I found a photo for him (that's complete crap) but we still need to find a better one. Quadzilla99 12:56, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Somewhat better photo was found. Could still use a better one. Quadzilla99 12:49, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

MSN Encarta source
I used MSN encarta as a source and I have two things to note about that:

1. Currently you can access MSN encarta for free if you come across it via msn search. So just go to msn.com and type encarta in the search bar and you can access encarta and this source for free. If this should ever change see #2.

2. A source that requires payment to be accessed is completely viable. All magazines, books, and newspapers require you to pay for them. Just because something isn't freely available on the internet doesn't mean it's an invalid source. Quadzilla99 15:44, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Colors
There should not be colors for past players (I was the one to make it eligible for use), because lets say Reggie White for example, whatt color are you going to use? It will create wars. --Phbasketball6 00:48, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I disagree as Taylor only played for one team. I'll wait for your response before reverting. Quadzilla99 00:53, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

I know and I thought of that too, but when other users will see it then they'll start doing it for everyone. (I already had to revert alot of former Bronco players that played for more than one team.) Thanks --Phbasketball6 00:59, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I noticed you put in a blue and white format, I personally liked the blue and red format better. Was there a discussion on this? Personally the blue and white looks a little drab to me. Quadzilla99 10:29, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Ok, good point and I agree, good job so far on the article. Thanks --Phbasketball6 02:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Red on blue is very bad. The contrast is insufficient. The colors clash with each other. Bright red text on a bright blue background isn't conducive to reading anything. fethers 02:55, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Can all three colors be incorporated? The blue on white is way too drab and bland. Quadzilla99 13:05, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * How about the red on blue I just put on the article? The red doesn't pop as badly, and the blue is darker. fethers 15:01, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * That's fine by me. If it's still a problem, maybe someone could come up with red letters with white borders. Quadzilla99 16:12, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I mean to put on top of the blue background of course. Quadzilla99 16:13, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm finding that combination very difficult to look at. I don't have the highest tolerance for contrast issues, so I'll leave the final decision up to people with better eyes, but we should probably take into account that a certain segment of the population will have trouble reading the text. -- Vary | Talk 16:29, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * In fact, in a side by side comparison, the new shade of red is actually slightly worse than the old one, at least for me. And I see that the infoboxes for Mel Hein, Frank Gifford and Charlie Conerly all use a much easier on the eyes white on blue combination. -- Vary | Talk 16:34, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay I removed it. It looks legible, but horribly bland to me. There has to be some way to put a white border on the red letters. Quadzilla99 16:35, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

In addition it's inaccurate as the two main colors of the team are blue and red. White is probably the third most prominent color. There has to be some manageable way to incorporate red with blue. Quadzilla99 16:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The problem here is that we don't even need to use colors. If we are going to use colors, "bland" is what we're going for, because we want everyone to be able to read it. I think white on blue is completely the way to go. We're trying to write an encyclopedia article, not design a webpage, right? Edit: Oh. I get what you're looking for. There's no way to border a font in a different color than it's using. It'd have to be an image to do that. Because of how infoboxes work we're limited to two colors. Like I said, white on blue seems to be the best way to do it. fethers 16:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Ooof, that looks worse than before. fethers 12:22, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

LT- MJ Gambling
I was gonna add this but since it's so little known and died out so fast, it's basically trivia so I removed it. Anyway here it is all tabloided up and ready to go:

In the Summer of 1993 Taylor became a peripheral figure in the Michael Jordan gambling saga that rose up around the Chicago Bulls star during the 1993 NBA playoffs. Jordan and Taylor had developed a friendship and played golf together regularly often wagering on their games. Taylor admitted that gambling had taken place but disputed the amount suggested by Richard Esquinas ($150,000), in his tell-all book on Michael Jordan. Later a source close to the situation told the New York Times that the amount of the debt was closer to $1,500. Quadzilla99 15:12, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Good Article
This article of Lawrence Taylor, in no doubt should be a good article. --Phbasketball6 00:47, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

removed sentence
I removed this sentence in lieu of a source, "Taylor has become a consumer of well-known health and wellness products and spends a good deal of time promoting good health and natural, toxin-free living." Quadzilla99 06:27, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

WWF Career
I remember Lawrence Taylor sitting in the audience of WWF Royal Rumble 1995 and making fun of Bam Bam Bigelow because Bam Bam Bigelow was in a match against the 1-2-3 Kid and list and Bam Bam Bigelow slapping him resulting in Lawrence Taylor getting mad and wathing to fight Bam Bam Bigelow which resulted in the two of them in a one-on-one match at WWF WrestleMania XI. What is this not on his profile? gibsonj338 22:40, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * There's a link to it in the article, where it says "engaging in matches with Bam Bam Bigelow among others", click on that. Quadzilla99 06:34, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
 * It's in the After the NFL and recovery section. Quadzilla99 06:36, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

I edited this section for accuracy, since the "engaged in matches...among others" bit is misleading. LT wrestled only one WWF match, that being the contest with Bigelow which was precipitated by the Rumble encounter. In fact, the match was advertised by WWF using the slogan "First Time, Last Time, Only Time."Bgdddymtty (talk) 21:54, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Small original research concerns
I believe the following sentence is original research:

 * "Taylor's prominence on the team that year is witnessed by the fact that he appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated alone the week leading up to Super Bowl XXI"

How does one source this? This is a speculation on what were the reasons that led the Sport Illustrated editors to chose what would appear on the magazine cover.

On an unrelated point, we don't need to use the unfree magazine cover just because we mentioned the magazine issue. Although this is highly abused across Wikipedia, magazine covers should only be used when the cover itself is notable. --Abu badali (talk) 20:25, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The cover is notable (obviously), and the wording has been changed to satisfy your NPOV paranoia. SI covers usually feature several people before the Super Bowl that year they only featured him on the cover. Maybe your not familiar with SI's prominence (especially in the pre-internet era) but it's common knowledge how prominent it is in America. Quadzilla99 21:23, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Used as a source
This article was used as a source in the Cornell Daily Sun. Quadzilla99 00:09, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

GA
I don't see any reason not to pass this article, as it passes all the criteria no problem. I'd say take this to peer review as a potential FA candidate, as if nothing else it's close to that already. Actually at first glance, before you took this to GAC, I would've said just go straight to FAC with this.-- Wizardman 15:53, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I've got one or two books on him coming in the mail that I want to read first to make sure I haven't left anything out and then I'll go for it. Quadzilla99 18:32, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Sacks
If I have to be totally honest, I'm a huge L.T. fan. However, I can't see any legitimate reason for his official statistics section under his profile to say 142 sacks. The fact is, he has 132.5 sacks, period. That's the recognized total. To say 142 sacks is to editorialize on the NFL's statistical policy. It's enough to note in the article in several locations that he was noted as having 9.5 uncounted sacks in his career. But you can't say he has 142 sacks in the official stat section if he is just plain not officially credited with such a thing.President David Palmer (talk) 11:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

 * As far as "editorialize on the NFL's statistical policy", I don't know. As has been brought up, the NFL's statistical policy is not the standard here. My underatanding is that if the New York Giants list Taylor as having 142, then that is verifiable, no?72.0.36.36 (talk) 02:57, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

 * No one says his total is "official". It is verifiable, which is the wiki standard. It is enough to not that the 9.5 in 1981 are unofficial. If someone wants to get his official, NFL cetified number they can go to the Elias Sports Bureau. The fact is Taylor plaed in 1981, and he had 9.5 sacks. Further, there is no "official" stat section. It is an infobox with verifiable information. Who do you work for the NFL? Elias Sports Bureau. Buy a New York Giants media guide and see how many sacks they crediti him with. Just because the NFL did not officially count sacks until 1982 does not mean they were not recorded in the offical game records. You have a lot to learn about NFL stats.12.41.183.194 (talk) 21:55, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Taylor's 142 sacks are verifiable, which is the standard for wiki. WHile his 9-1/2 sacks in 1981 are not official, they are verifiable and should be shown as such. As long as there is the asterisk showing that the NFL of recognizes 132.5 of those sacks then the Taylor bio should show the accurate number. WIki does not have to conform with the NFL for "official" stats in my opinion72.0.36.36 (talk) 16:35, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

 * The official stat is the one everyone goes by, which is why Strahan was recognized as the Giants all-time leader when he recorded more than 132.5. Trevor GH5 (talk) 00:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

 * No, not everyone "goes by" the so-called NFL official stats. Get an offical New York Giants media guide, they list Taylor as having 142 sacks, but that 132.5 is official. There is a good New York Time article in 2006 about this when Strahan officially passed Taylor. It pointed out the problem. The standard ofr Wikipedia is verifiable and as long as the 142 sacks are verifiable, then you don't need to keep changing it, do you?72.0.36.36 (talk) 02:57, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

 * The official stats are the one we recognize here, go to WP:NFL if you disagree. Marcus Taylor (talk) 00:17, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Julius Peppers
I went ahead and deleted the end few sentences in Taylor's college days that relayed an anecdote about Julius Peppers. Basically the passages were talking about how Peppers was compared to Taylor and then it when on to say Peppers was flattered but was anxious to get out of Taylor's shadow. Frankly that has no business in this article. I can see putting it in Peppers's article but in what possible way is the anxiety that Peppers felt about being compared to Taylor significant for Taylor's bio? I could see putting Peppers in a list of linebackers at USC who were compared to Taylor maybe. But talking about how Peppers dealt with that, or how any linebacker dealt with that while at USC is completely irrelevant for this page. If you think I am wrong feel free to tell me why. I just don't see why such trivia, that's really about someone other than the subject of the article, deserved to be here.Jdlund (talk) 18:54, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Subsection to "Post-NFL life": Legal issues
Great article, but needs editing to remove trivial drugs section. Also to highlight substantial legal issues in (sub)section that subject of article has faced, since there are a number of incidents, all with verifiable, reputable references. Any insistence on keeping the trivial drugs section, and not adding a very germane legal issues (sub)section points to a bias in editing that should not be a part of this article. 71.176.50.18 (talk) 08:22, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I've been watching this. I disagree. The info you want to add is subtrivial, like the specific dates and such and the bail amount. It just seems like you want to create a dumping ground section for negative info. All the stuff is already mentioned chronologically. I also don't know how on God's green Earth you can say all that info about his drug use is unimportant. And then to imply that someone is biased in favor of Taylor by putting in the fact that he was a crackhead is bizarre. I don't really understand where you're coming from. Trevor GH5 (talk) 12:53, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * A subject who has had a significant number of legal issues throughout his life ought to have those mentioned in the article, in a subsection, at the very least. If one is to separate out drug use as a main section, why not, at the very least, note the specific of the legal problems that were alluded to the the lede/narrative of the article, if only to maintain a NPOV in this article. I mean really, a full section titled "Drugs and extreme measures", which is also prominently indexed in search engines such as Google is not prejudicial to the subject? C'mon now.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.176.50.18 (talk) 13:53, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't understand what in God's name you are saying about the Drugs section which btw has been there for like four years now. The legal issues were already mentioned. Its not like anything is hidden or not covered. What will creating another section do? Trevor GH5 (talk) 14:05, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * God has nothing to do with this subject, IMHO :). A subsection is not as prominent as a main section, for starters. Also, all the info in the proposed subsection for Legal Issues is already in the Post-NFL life section anyway. What's the big deal? Just because this article is tagged as a "good article", does not mean it can not be improved by proper editing practices. And a subsection for legal issues is quite proper as it consolidates all the pertinent material into one subsection. Simple, clean and concise. (I won't argue anymore about the drugs section as it is not the focus here, and would be futile anyways apparently.) 71.176.50.18 (talk) 14:55, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

Farewell Address at Giants Stadium
No mention is made of LT's Giants farewell address, which occurred, most probably, before the final regular season home game, in the late fall of 1993. It only took a few minutes, and he finished "[If it were not for you fans...] there would have been a Lawrence Taylor, but there wouldn't have been an L.T." Intimating of course that fan involvement contributed to his legend. (...) I would have edited the article, as I watched this live, but am not sure what game it was (or even indeed if it was during, or before, a game). Nonetheless, I believe consideration should be given to adding it, as it is a marker of sorts for Giants, as well as NFL, history. (John G. Lewis (talk) 04:12, 20 June 2014 (UTC))

Talk:Venus of Berekhat Ram

Image
Anyone have a picture?

 * Google Image Search has several up, but I don't know what the copyrights are. The image found on this page seems to be the standard one, however. Beginning 04:16, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Spelling
Search engines seem to prefer Venus of Berekhat Ram, and every single Berekhet result I've come across is from Wikipedia, so I'm going to move it over to that name. Each result from Google Image Search uses the a instead of the e as well. Beginning 04:16, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Alterations
I've emphasised that there is dispute rather than consensus and tried to separate the question of whether there was modification from the problem of whether such modification was for an artistic/symbolic purpose. There is also the third question of whether the markings - if intentional and symbolic - have anything to do with trying to make the thing look like a woman. In the earlier version these were all equated with one another. Paul B (talk) 14:01, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

 * As I understand it, there is no agreement that it was modified by early humans at all. So I'm changing the introductory sentence to reflect that.

Bing (rank)

Bing (兵; ) is the rank usually held by enlisted personnel in some East Asian militaries. The ranks are used in both the People's Republic of China and the Republic of China on Taiwan, and both North and South Korea. The rank name is based on one of the four ancient occupations.

Etymology
The Sino-Korean word component "byeong" means "soldier" literally, used in a wide variety of words related with soldiers, like in busang-byeong (부상병; Hanja: 負傷兵, lit. 'a wounded soldier'), but rarely (usually in technical context in armed forces) per se.

Byeongjangs, who work closely with their US military counterparts, are frequently addressed as "sergeant" or the equivalent E-5 term in English by the U.S. military. This varies however by unit. In a similar vein, some US E-5s are called hasa by the ROKA members, as their status is one of an NCO.

History
The various ranks of byeong are denoted by stripes worn laterally on a service member's left sleeve. An even lower rank, that of mudeungbyeong (무등병; Hanja: 無等兵, lit. 'soldier with no rank'), also known as hullyeonbyeong (훈련병; Hanja: 訓鍊兵, lit. 'trainee soldier'), is usually believed to be held by enlisted recruits in basic training, and those recruits are not allowed to have any insignia on their uniform until they finish the training course, but they are actually regarded to be ideungbyeong (the lowest byeong rank) officially.

In most comparative military scales, a Byeongjang is considered the equivalent of a non-commissioned officer equal to a sergeant. The South Korean military, however, does not generally grant NCO powers to a service member until obtaining the rank of hasa. Still, Byeongjang in South Korea is exceptionally considered as an NCO when holding the squad leader position.

The word byeong (soldier) has a natural context that personnel in those ranks are not in commanding responsibilities, thus not NCOs at all. They are strictly distinguished from the ranks above in many respects. Personnel with ranks of hasa or above are called ganbu (간부; Hanja: 幹部, lit. 'the executive members'), as an antonym of byeong. South Korea's South Korean military are retained by the conscription system. If a person is enlisted to an armed force and has not applied for NCO or officer, then his highest rank until he finishes the mandatory service term (21 months in case of the ROK Army, as of 2012) is to be the highest rank of byeong (i.e. Byeongjang).

People's Liberation Army
The same rank names are used for all services, prefixed by haijun or kongjun.

Eugenio Elorduy Walther

Eugenio Elorduy Walther (November 21, 1940 – September 23, 2023) was a Mexican politician. He was governor of his adoptive state of Baja California from November 1, 2001 to October 31, 2007. His wife Maria Elena Blackaller served as first lady and had 4 children with Eugenio. Mariela, Erika, Eugenio, and Ernesto continue to carry out his remembrance today.

Biography
Elorduy graduated with honours from the Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (ITESM) in Business Administration in 1965. He became a member of the Partido Acción Nacional three years later and was elected as a council member in 1968 and state congressman in 1974. He was the Secretary of Finance under Ernesto Ruffo's administration (1989–1995). He was elected as president of the municipality of Mexicali for the 1995-1998 term for the National Action Party (PAN). He was elected on July 8, 2001 as governor of his state representing the PAN (in alliance with the Green Party of Mexico). Walther died on September 23, 2023, at the age of 82.

Governorship of Baja California
In 2007 Elorduy was accused by some members of his party of supporting the primary candidacy of José Guadalupe Osuna; to this he declared that the PAN party would keep the governorship in the next six years.

Organized crime
During the government of Ernesto Ruffo (1989–1995), Elorduy paid 150,000 pesos (roughly 50,000 US dollars) of state funds to bail out Sergio Ortiz Lara when he was accused in 1994 of collaborating with drug dealers.

In a video released by the Zeta weekly, a former commander of the state police accused Antonio Martínez Luna, Baja California's Attorney General, and other members of public security of being involved in activities regarding drug trafficking, homicide, kidnapping, disappearing and hiding of dead bodies, and accepting bribes.

In 2001, Antonio Carmona, Elorduy's chief of police during his mayorship of Mexicali, was sentenced to 36 years of jail for contributing to drug-dealing and organized crime.

Round Hill, Frederick County, Virginia

Round Hill is an unincorporated community in Loudoun County, Virginia, United States. Round Hill is located west of Winchester on the Northwestern Turnpike (U.S. Route 50). It is often referred to as Round Hill after Round Hill (1381 ft) but this may cause confusion as there is already an incorporated town with the same name in nearby Loudoun County. Round Hill has also been known as Chambersville throughout its history. It lies on Round Hill Road (SR 803), off U.S. Route 50 at Poorhouse Road (SR 654).

The Frederick County Poor Farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.

Zoomed video port

In computing, a zoomed video port (often simply ZV port) is a unidirectional video bus allowing a device in a PC card slot to transfer video data directly into a VGA frame buffer, so as to allow laptops to display real-time video. The standard was created by the PCMCIA to allow devices such as TV tuners, video inputs and MPEG coprocessors to fit into a PC card form factor and provide a cheap solution for both the laptop manufacturer and consumer.

The ZV port is a direct connection between the PC card slot and VGA controller. Video data is transferred in real time without any buffering, removing the need for bus mastering or arbitration.

The ZV port was invented as an alternative to such methods as the VAFC (VESA Advanced Feature connector).

A Little More Personal (Raw)

A Little More Personal (Raw) (stylized A Little More Personal (RAW)) is the second and most recent studio album by American actress and singer-songwriter Lindsay Lohan, released on November 30, 2005, by Casablanca Records. The album features darker material than Lohan's debut studio album, Speak (2004). Recording sessions took place in several locations, including at Lohan's trailer during the principal photography of Herbie: Fully Loaded, where she recorded her vocals for the album's lead single, "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)".

The album received mixed reviews from music critics, who praised Lohan's ambition and vocals, despite considering it a weak album. A Little More Personal (Raw) charted mildly compared to Speak, debuting (and also peaking) at number 20 on the US Billboard 200, with first-week sales of 82,000 copies. However, it was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipments of over 500,000 copies. It was also certified Gold in Taiwan. Lohan promoted the album with a few television appearances, including at MTV's Total Request Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show and the 33rd Annual American Music Awards.

Background and recording
During the shoot of the music video for her single "First", Lohan revealed in an interview with MTV that she was preparing her sophomore studio album. "When you get into the studio, everything just comes out," she said. "All your creative juices are there. I don't [want to] leave. I'll still be in there until all hours, and it's nice to be able to do that." Lohan began writing lyrics for the album in June 2005, after the last single from her previous album had been released. "I've been writing a lot, almost every night," she said. "There's been a lot going on [in my life lately], and I think people can find that escape in hobbies that they do. I don't do yoga or anything, but some people use that. Everyone has their own thing, and I use writing." The pop rock album features a darker theme when compared to Lohan's previous album.

"Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)", the lead single and first track of the album, was mainly written by Lohan as a letter to her father, Michael, who was incarcerated in June 2005 after surviving a car crash for which he was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. Additional writing and song production was done by Butch Walker, Greg Wells and Kara DioGuardi, who revealed, "If you solo the vocals you'll hear race cars, because we brought the studio to [Lindsay's] trailer on Herbie: Fully Loaded. I'm not kidding! She had no time to do the record, so she would be on her lunch break, and I'd be like, 'Throw that thing down your throat and get over here, 'cause we got to finish these vocals!' So I sat for 14 hours on the set and would grab her for, like, 10 minutes at a time. The poor girl. That's the reality of young Hollywood. When they're hot, they're worked to death. It was 18/20-hour days. ... And I swear: 'Vroom! Vroom!' You can hear it in the back." "My Innocence" is also about Lohan's father. Lohan also covered two songs for the album, "I Want You to Want Me" by Cheap Trick and "Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks.

Critical reception
A Little More Personal (Raw) received mostly mixed reviews from music critics. The album holds a score of 50 out of 100 based on 9 critical reviews, according to the music review aggregator Metacritic. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic gave the album three stars out of five, saying, "Lindsay Lohan clearly spells out her ambition in the title to her second album, A Little More Personal (Raw) -- she's going to shed the glitzy trappings of her debut, Speak, and dig down deep in her heart, letting feelings flood onto the page". Erlewine also stated that even though the album "is far from being totally successful, it is an intriguing mash-up of heart and commerce. And it does suggest one thing that Speak never did: Lindsay Lohan may have an artistic vision as a recording artist, which is indeed a huge step forward". Entertainment Weeklys Leah Greenblatt said, "like so many pop records today, Personal has more than its share of filler, and like all teenagers, Lohan contradicts herself. [...] Perhaps Personals vulnerability is calculated, and its rawness a misnomer, or maybe she's really opening up. We'll probably never know. Lindsay may no longer be on the edge of 17, but being 19, troubled, and ridiculously famous can cut pretty deep, so props to her for letting us see her bleed — just a little".

Brian Hiatt of Rolling Stone said Lohan "makes a fatal mistake on her second album: She tries to, like, express herself", while a Los Angeles Times critic also gave the album a negative review, claiming that, "for most of the album, [Lohan] sounds like any other self-absorbed teen, yearning to be Alanis, Gwen, and even Stevie Nicks." Whitney Strub of PopMatters was strongly critical of the album, scoring it 3 out of 10 stars, while writing "what can one expect from an album that promises to get more personal... while combining blandness, banality, and vapidity". Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine considered A Little More Personal (Raw) "more consistent than its predecessor, and it's not a bad listen by any means, but for all the so-called weighty subject matter, there's not much meat on these bones".

Commercial performance
A Little More Personal (Raw) debuted at number 20 on the US Billboard 200 with first week sales of 82,000. The album is certified Gold in the United States by the RIAA for 500,000 copies in shipment. As of May 2008, A Little More Personal (Raw) has sold over 305,000 copies in the United States. In Taiwan, the album also received a Gold certification.

Promotion
Following the album's release, A Little More Personal (Raw) reportedly was certified Gold in Taiwan, and that Lohan was going on tour with the album in the country. "I just found this out today – my album went Gold there. It was a great feeling because it was very unexpected", Lohan revealed. "I would love to (tour Taiwan). I haven't toured at all at this point, but I would really love to do that. It's a great feeling to know that people in other places and other countries are aware of my music and what I do". For unknown reasons the tour didn't happen. However, as a thank you to the fans in Taiwan, both her albums were released there as deluxe editions, with Speak being released with a bonus VCD and A Little More Personal (Raw) being released with a bonus calendar and a promotional poster. Lohan promoted the album in a few television appearances, including at MTV's TRL on November 11, where she performed "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)" and her cover of "I Want You to Want Me", and on the day of the album's release, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on November 24, the Late Night with Conan O'Brien on December 7, and at The Ellen DeGeneres Show on December 14. Lohan also performed "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)" and her cover of "Edge of Seventeen" at the 33rd Annual American Music Awards on November 22. Lohan was scheduled to appear on Live with Regis and Kelly the day of the album's release but pulled out five minutes after the show started as the New York Post reported her having food poisoning, before appearing on MTV's TRL later that day.

Singles
"Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)" was previewed before the album's release at AOL Music's First Listen on September 30, 2005. It was made available for purchase as a digital download and was sent to contemporary hit radio on October 18, 2005. An accompanying music video for the song, directed by Lohan herself, references her father Michael's drunkenness and alleged domestic abuse, and was released on October 25, 2005. As a response to the music video, Lohan's father wrote a letter to the New York Daily News, saying, "while I always considered and expressed how truly blessed Lindsay, as well as my other children, are, I never realized how blessed I am to have a daughter as amazing as Lindsay. Hold onto my shirt honey, soon enough you'll be able to hold on to me!" "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)" achieved moderate chart success worldwide, reaching number seven in Australia on the week of its debut on chart. It spent 13 weeks on the chart, peaking at number 45 on the last. In Austria, it reached number 74 on the week of March 24, 2006, dropping the chart in the following. In the United States, it peaked at number 14 on the Digital Songs chart on the week of December 3, 2005, while reaching number 57 on Billboard Hot 100 on the week of December 24, 2005. It was Lohan's first and only entry, to date, on the Billboard Hot 100.

 * Rod Taylor – The long-time Hampton Roads Admirals forward joined the team in 2000 after the Admirals suspended ECHL operations and became home to an AHL team. Taylor broke the ECHL goal-scoring record that was once held by former Renegade Trevor Jobe on December 29, 2000.
 * Manny Legace - Played for the Renegades during the 1996-97 season. He played for many teams throughout his NHL career, including the Los Angeles Kings and the Detroit Red Wings, the latter of whom he won a Stanley Cup with in 2002. Towards the end of his career, he played for the St. Louis Blues and Carolina Hurricanes. Legace currently serves as the goaltending coach for the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Anna Mahler

Anna Justine Mahler (15 June 1904 – 3 June 1988) was an Austrian sculptor.

Early life

Born in Vienna, Anna Mahler was the second child of the composer Gustav Mahler and his wife Alma Schindler. They nicknamed her 'Gucki' on account of her big blue eyes (gucken is German for 'peek' or 'peep'). Her childhood was spent in the shadow of her mother’s love affairs and famous salon. Anna also suffered the loss of her older sister Maria Mahler (1902–1907) who died of scarlet fever when Anna was three—and her father, who died when she was six. The aftermath of both tragedies coincided with her mother's love affair with the German architect Walter Gropius and her stormy relationship with the Austrian Expressionist painter Oskar Kokoschka. Alma Mahler's second marriage to Gropius, however, provided some semblance of family life during Anna’s adolescence—as well as a young half-sister, Manon Gropius (1916–1935).

Anna was educated by tutors and also enjoyed the attention of her mother's friends, which included many of the important artistic figures in music, the visual arts, and literature. As the daughter of the legendary Gustav Mahler, Anna was expected to have a musical career, but this never materialized.

Artistic career
Anna Mahler's exposure to the visual arts began early when she would visit Oskar Kokoschka's studio. She was also a model for her mother-in-law, the painter Broncia Koller-Pinell. After her divorce, Anna studied art and painting on and off in Berlin, Rome, and Paris throughout the 1920s. At the age of twenty-six, she discovered that sculpture was the medium in which she could best express her creativity. Having taken lessons in sculpting in Vienna in 1930 from Fritz Wotruba, she became an established sculptor there, and was awarded the Grand Prix in Paris in 1937.

As well as sculpting successfully in stone, Anna Mahler produced bronze heads of many of the musical giants of the 20th century including Arnold Schönberg, Alban Berg, Artur Schnabel, Otto Klemperer, Bruno Walter, Rudolf Serkin and Eileen Joyce.

Personal life
At the age of 16, Anna fell in love with a rising young conductor, Rupert Koller. They were married on 2 November 1920. Their marriage ended within months.

Soon after, Anna moved to Berlin to study art. While there, she fell in love with Ernst Krenek, the composer, who later was asked by Alma to produce a neat copy of two movements from the draft of Mahler's unfinished Tenth Symphony. Anna married him on 15 January 1924, while she was still 19 years old. Like her first marriage, this second marriage failed within months. She left Krenek for good in November 1924. During this time, Krenek was completing his Violin Concerto No. 1, Op. 29. The Australian violinist Alma Moodie assisted Krenek with getting financial assistance from her Swiss patron Werner Reinhart, at whose instigation Krenek and Mahler were living in Zürich, and, in gratitude, Krenek dedicated the concerto to Moodie, who premiered it on 5 January 1925, in Dessau. Krenek's divorce from Anna Mahler became final a few days after the premiere, which Krenek did not attend.

Next, Anna married the publisher Paul Zsolnay on 2 December 1929, when she was 25. They had a daughter, Alma (5 November 1930 – 15 November 2010). The couple divorced in 1934, after five years.

Alma fled Nazi Austria after the Anschluss in March 1938. By April 1939, she was living in Hampstead in London and was advertising in the newspaper for pupils.

On 3 March 1943, she married the conductor Anatole Fistoulari with whom she had another daughter, Marina (born 1 August 1943). After the War, she travelled to California without Fistoulari, to whom she was still married. She lived there for some years. Anna appeared on "You Bet Your Life", both the 2 January 1952 radio show, and the 3 January 1952 TV show. Her marriage to Fistoulari was dissolved around 1956.

Around 1970, she married her fifth husband, Albrecht Joseph (1901–1991), a Hollywood film editor and writer of screenplays. Mahler once said that she had found true love with her last husband but had left him at the age of seventy-five in order that they might both progress, since they spent too much time looking after each other.

After her mother died in 1964, Anna, now financially independent, returned to London for a while before finally deciding to live in Spoleto in Italy in 1969. In 1988, she died in Hampstead, while visiting her daughter Marina there. She is buried at Highgate Cemetery.

Assault (1988 video game)

Assault (アサルト) is a 1988 multi-directional shooter arcade game developed and published by Namco. It was licensed to Atari Games for release in North America. Controlling a caterpillar-tread self-propelled gun, the player is tasked with completing each of the game's eleven stages while shooting enemies and avoiding projectiles. It uses a twin-stick control layout, similar to games such as Battlezone. The plot involves the human race searching for new planets after Earth reaches its maximum population - after discovering an exo-planet 35,000 light years away from the Milky Way, they enslave the planet's natives and take control, leading to the planet's native population vowing to abolish the humans and bring peace to their world. The protagonist who rides the aforementioned self-propelled gun which players control, is one such native.

Assault was one of the first games to use the Namco System 2 arcade hardware, capable of sprite scaling and rotation. Music was composed by Shinji Hosoe while designs for the player's tank and enemies were designed by Gundam artist Kunio Ogawara. Upon release, Assault was met with favorable reviews, with critics applauding the game's graphics, controls and usage of sprite-scaling.

A Japan-only follow-up, Assault Plus, was released the same year and is an updated version of the original. Assault is included in the compilation Namco Museum Vol. 4 for the PlayStation in 1997, and was later released for the Japanese Wii Virtual Console in 2009.

Gameplay

Controlling a caterpillar-tread self-propelled gun, the player is tasked with completing each of the game's eleven stages by destroying enemies and avoiding enemy projectiles. Some projectiles can be negated with shots fired from the self-propelled gun, other shots cannot and thus must be avoided.

Similar to Battlezone (1980), the game features a twin-stick control scheme, where pushing the joysticks forward will cause the tank to move forward and pushing them backwards will make it reverse direction. Turning is done by moving only one joystick forward. Pushing both joysticks left or right will flip the tank over, which can allow the player to move through narrow spots. Pushing both joysticks away from each other will allow the player to do a Power Wheelie, which will allow it to fire powerful grenades at enemies. The player can also perform Rapid Rolls (strafing) by pushing both joysticks either left or right.

Levels include one or more "lift zones" that push the tank high into the air when driven onto. When in the air, the player sees a zoomed-out view of the battlefield and can launch long-range attacks against the enemies while remaining completely safe from their shots. Lift zones can only be used a limited number of times.

The game is composed of eleven stages, which include large deserts, mechanical bases, forests and rivers. The end of each stage features a large mechanical structure that must be defeated, which will shoot projectiles at the player. Stages also contain large "Jump Pads" that will catapult the tank into the sky when touched, allowing the player to shoot powerful blasts towards enemies on the ground and to view other sections of the map. A flashing arrow will appear on-screen to point the player towards the level exit.

Plot
In the year 2199, Earth reached its maximum population point, causing humans to venture throughout the Milky Way in search of potential new planets to inhabit. One such pioneer space ship called Pilot 1, consisted of 3000 personnel with 2000 soldiers and 1000 scientists and technicians. 35,000 light years away from the galaxy, Pilot 1 had discovered a planet habitable to humans (though the way new planet's environment is structured in such a bizarre manner that cannot be explained with Earth's science) with large floating continents, inhabited by a native civilization. A large war ensued, and natives were subdued by Earth's colonizers.

After the war is over with humans' victory, humans launched an extensive assessment and discovered that although natives' civilization was more advanced, they had very little concept and experience in waging conflicts, thus lacked a powerful military necessary to fend off invaders and to protect their planet that gave humankind (whose history is riddled with conflicts, arms race and treachery) immense advantage and lead to the downfall of the natives. Fearing that natives, having now experienced a great conflict against foreigners and as advanced as they are would one day rise up to launch a decisive counterattack as well as to secure the further arrival of more human migrants from Earth to settle on this new planet, humans proceeded to militarize the planet by began constructing large fortresses and weaponizing buildings to strengthen their positions. As humans predicted among natives a lone tankman, feeling the humans have no right to reign over by force, pilots a caterpillar-treaded self-propelled gun in an effort to vanquish occupiers from Earth and bring peace to his home planet.

A one-man's war against an army of thousands of human invaders, a war which neither side can afford to back down had begun.

Development and release
Assault was originally released by Namco in Japan in April 1988, later licensed to Atari Games for release in North America. The soundtrack was composed by Shinji Hosoe, while designs for the player's tank and enemies were designed by Gundam artist Kunio Okawara. Assault was one of the first games to use the Namco System 2 arcade board, which was capable of sprite rotation and scaling.

Reception
In Japan, Game Machine listed Assault on their May 15, 1988 issue as being the second most-successful table arcade unit of the month. The game was met with a favorable reception from critics, who praised the game's graphics, controls and sprite-scaling techniques. Japanese video game magazine Gamest awarded the title the eighth "Best Shooting Award" and "Best Ending Award", as well as the eleventh "Annual Hit Game" award in January 1998.

Nick Kelly of Commodore User was impressed with the game's technological capabilities, notably the use of sprite scaling and rotation, saying that it features "impressive multi-directional scrolling". He also praised the twin-stick control layout for providing a more 'hands-on' approach to the game, favorably comparing it to Atari's Vindicators. Kelly concluded his review by writing that the game was "a good idea well executed". Power Play gave a similar response, calling its scrolling techniques "unique" and its music a "true celebration". They also applauded the game's attention to detail, particularly with the player's tank slowing down upon moving over rough surfaces.

Legacy
According to former Wolf Team designer Kazuyoshi Inoue, Assault was an influence for Granada alongside Grobda, as co-designer Toshio Toyota was a fan of arcade games. Assault is one of the five titles in Namco Museum Vol. 4 for the PlayStation in 1997. In his review of the collection, Jeff Gerstmann of GameSpot called Assault "the gem of the package". Crispon Boyer of Electronic Gaming Monthly stated that both it and Ordyne were the only games in the collection "worth a darn", calling Assault one of his favorite arcade games. Dan Hsu wrote that the game was only worth playing with an analog controller to get the full arcade experience, while Shawn called it one of the best games in the compilation.

A Japanese Wii Virtual Console digital download was released on June 9, 2009.

Shortly after Assault was released, a Japan-only follow-up, Assault Plus, was published. It has altered visuals and enemy designs, as well as presenting the stages in an episodic format rather than a linear run. Plus is included in Namco Museum Vol. 4 as a bonus game that can be unlocked with a cheat code.

Rock glacier

Rock glaciers are distinctive geomorphological landforms, consisting either of angular rock debris frozen in interstitial ice, former "true" glaciers overlain by a layer of talus, or something in-between. Rock glaciers are normally found at high latitudes and/or elevations, and may extend outward and downslope from talus cones, glaciers or terminal moraines of glaciers.

There are two types of rock glaciers: periglacial glaciers (or talus-derived glaciers), and glacial rock glaciers, such as the Timpanogos Glacier in Utah, which are often found where glaciers once existed. Possible Martian rock glacier features have been identified by the Mars Orbiter spacecraft. A rock glacier, especially if its origin is unclear, can be considered as a discrete debris accumulation.

Formation
The two known factors that must be present in order to create rock glaciers are low ice velocity and permafrost. Most glacial rock glaciers are created by the recession of debris covered glaciers. Glacial rock glaciers are often found in cirque basins where rocky debris falls off the steep sides and accumulates on ice glaciers. As the glaciers shrink, their composition changes as they become increasingly covered with debris. Eventually, the glacial ice is replaced by ice cored rocks.

With the exception of ice-cored rock glaciers, rock glaciers are a periglacial process. This means that they are a nonglacial landform associated with cold climates, particularly with various aspects of frozen ground. Periglacial rock glaciers require permafrost instead of glacial ice in order to form. Instead, they are caused by continuous freezing occurring within a talus lobe. Periglacial rock glaciers can form from the alternation of rock debris incoming with autumn firn or avalanche snow.

Nearby cliffs are in many cases a requirement for the formation of rock glaciers, and as such many rock glaciers form in valleys steepened by glacier erosion. Rock masses of rock glaciers have been found to make up different rock types depending on the local geology. These rock types include andesite, basalt, granite, porphyry, quartzite, and sandstone.

Ordinary glaciers can override rock glaciers, acquiring some of its material and properties. Likewise, rock glaciers can originate from debris-rich remnants of glaciers.

Movement
Rock glaciers move downslope by deformation of the ice contained within them, causing their surface to resemble those of glaciers. Some rock glaciers can reach lengths of 3 km and can have terminal embankments 60 m high. Blocks on the surface can be up to 8 m in diameter. Flow features on the surface of rock glaciers may develop from:

Their growth and formation is subject to some debate, with main theories:
 * Deformation of the ice core.
 * Movement of the debris cover along the debris-ice interface.
 * Deformation from a period of glacial advance.
 * Changes in the hydrologic balance.
 * A permafrost origin, which implies that the features are related to permafrost action rather than glacial action;
 * A mass wasting or landslide origin, which does not require the presence of ice and suggests a sudden catastrophic origin with little subsequent movement.

Rock glaciers may move or creep at a very slow rate, in part dependent on the amount of ice present.

According to recent studies, rock glaciers positively influence the streams around them.

Subject to climate variation, rock glaciers in proximity tend to have a highly synchronous movement pattern over a short time scale; over long term, however, the relationship between rock glacier velocity and climate difference may not be as pronounced, due to the influences of topographic factors and lack of ice or debris budget within the glacier body.

Human use
Rock glaciers in the Chilean Andes help supply the water for much of Chile, including the capital of Santiago. Mining operations in the high mountains have led to the degradation and destruction of more than two rock glaciers. Several copper mines dump their waste rock onto rock glaciers, which results in faster melting and higher velocity movement of these rock glaciers. The dumping of waste rock on the rock glaciers may lead to their destabilization. In 2004, protesting irrigation farmers and environmentalists changed rules so new mining projects can no longer damage or alter rock glaciers in Chile. Parts of the only road into Denali National Park and Preserve in Alaska are built on a rock glacier known as "Pretty Rocks". In late summer 2021 the road had to be closed due to accelerating rockslides in that area, sometimes sliding up to 10 inch in a single day, apparently due to climate change.

Iowa Highway 22

Iowa Highway 22 (Iowa 22) is a 98 mi west–east state highway that traverses primarily rural areas in east-central Iowa. The highway begins near Thornburg at an intersection with Iowa Highway 21 and ends in southwestern Davenport, at U.S. Highway 61 Business.

Route description
Iowa Highway 22 begins west of Thornburg at Iowa Highway 21. It continues east through Keswick and Webster. Between Webster and South English, Iowa 22 is overlapped with Iowa Highway 149. It continues east from South English through Kinross and Wellman before intersecting Iowa Highway 1 at Kalona. It proceeds east from Kalona to go through Riverside and then intersects U.S. Highway 218 and Iowa Highway 27. After crossing the Iowa River, it goes through Nichols, where a short overlap with Iowa Highway 70 begins. It then continues eastward and intersects U.S. Highway 61 at Muscatine. It goes around the west and north city limits of Muscatine before intersecting Iowa Highway 38 and Business US 61 and turns south into Muscatine. It then turns east along a route next to the Mississippi River and passes through Buffalo before intersecting Interstate 280 at Davenport. It then turns north to end at U.S. 61.

To locals, Iowa Highway 22 is most notable as one of two main highways connecting Muscatine and Davenport (U.S. Highway 61 being the other). This 24 mi eastern section of highway follows the Mississippi River.

The segment of the highway between Muscatine and Davenport is part of the Great River Road.

History
Iowa Highway 22 was designated in 1926, and followed what is now U.S. Highway 61 between Muscatine and Davenport, passing through Blue Grass; U.S. 61 followed the Mississippi River route at the time. The highway was extended to Thornburg in 1931.

For years, several sections of Iowa Highway 22 was either gravel or had a bituminous surface. One of these sections — the section between Muscatine and Blue Grass — was paved in 1957, the same year U.S. 61 and Iowa Highway 22 switched routes; U.S. 61 now went through Blue Grass, while Iowa Highway 22 now followed the Mississippi River through Buffalo.

The last segment — between U.S. Highway 218 east of Riverside to Iowa Highway 405 north of Lone Tree, was upgraded from bituminous to paved in 1988.

Freedom Party of Albania

The Freedom Party (Partia e Lirisë, PL), formerly known as the Socialist Movement for Integration (, LSI), is a social democratic political party in Albania. The party was formed on 6 September 2004, when Ilir Meta defected from the Socialist Party of Albania (PS). A proposal to change its logo, name and other symbols was unanimously approved at the party's National Convention (Congress) on 25 July 2022.As party is seen more socially conservative than Socialist Party of Albania

Through the use of the term "movement", the party attempted to give the message that it is open and inclusive. The other reason for using this term was its intention to differentiate itself from the other parties. It employed the one member, one vote system in March 2005 to elect its leader, Ilir Meta.

Elections
At the 2005 parliamentary election the party won five seats in the Albanian Parliament with 8.4% of the vote. The party was mostly supported by the Albanian youth at the 2005 elections. At the 2009 parliamentary election it won four seats with 4.8% of the vote. The party along with PSV91 became the determining parties to form the government coalition. In June 2009 the PL allied with the centre-right Democratic Party of Albania (PD) to form the government coalition.

PL successfully increased its share of the vote in the 2013 parliamentary election, winning 16 seats with 10.4% of the vote.

Leader of the Party
Ilir Meta founded the party and remained Leader of the Party until 30 April 2017. On 28 April 2017 he was elected the 7th President of Albania and left the Party. Petrit Vasili, a prominent figure inside the party served as the party leader, until 29 June, resigning after the election results. Monika Kryemadhi, Meta's wife, was then voted in as party leader. Although she is the spouse of then-President Meta, she refused to take the honorific position of the First Lady of Albania, conceding the post to her oldest daughter. On 25 July 2022, Meta returned to the party as leader after his presidency had ended. Subsequently, the party's name was changed to the Freedom Party.

Iberville (Manitoba provincial electoral district)

Iberville is a former provincial electoral division in Manitoba, Canada. It was created by redistribution in 1914, and was eliminated by the 1955 redistribution before the 1958 provincial election.

Iberville was located to the west of Winnipeg, the capital city of Manitoba. When it was eliminated in 1958, some of its territory was transferred to the new constituency of Rockwood—Iberville, some to the new district of Fort Garry, and some to newly-drawn Assiniboia.

Scott Maslen

Scott Alexander Maslen (born 25 June 1971) is an English actor and model, best known for his portrayal as DS Phil Hunter in the ITV police drama series The Bill and Jack Branning in the BBC soap opera EastEnders since 2007. He also took part in the 2010 series of Strictly Come Dancing and the 2015 series of Celebrity MasterChef. He portrayed Claude Speed in the live-action trailer for Grand Theft Auto 2 in 1999.

Early life
Maslen was born in Woolwich, London, England on 25 June 1971. As a young boy Maslen admired the Royal Marines and attended Bromley Marines Cadets on a Monday and a Thursday at T.S. Narvik in Bromley Common. He was brought up in Woolwich and signed up to join the Royal Marines with his school friends, Marcus Marnham and Simon Farnham at the age of 16. He later sustained an injury whilst doing the PRMC (Potential Royal Marines Course), resulting in him not gaining entry to the Recruit training course. He has been a vegetarian since the age of 18; he discussed this on appearances on both The Paul O'Grady Show and Friday Night with Jonathan Ross.

Career
At the age of 18 he went to Miami and was spotted by photographer Bruce Weber. As a result of this encounter he began a career as an international model. Five years later, he turned to acting. After training at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, he landed a role in the successful television series Lock, Stock... in 2000. He has also played the live action rendition of Claude Speed in DMA Design's promotional video and opening sequence for Grand Theft Auto 2. After a few more television and film roles he landed his part in The Bill in 2002.

On 13 July 2007 it was announced that Maslen would be leaving The Bill and joining the cast of EastEnders as regular character Jack Branning. His love interest was Ronnie Mitchell, played by best friend Samantha Womack. Both actors commented that they were uncomfortable doing love scenes since they have known each other most of their lives and are like brother and sister. Maslen left EastEnders on 15 October 2013.

Maslen performed in the pantomime Aladdin at the Pavilion Theatre, Bournemouth over the Christmas/New Year period of 2013/2014. He performed the same pantomime at the Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury over the Christmas/New Year period of 2014/2015. He performed it again at the Churchill Theatre, Bromley over Christmas/New Year 2015/2016.

In 2015, he competed in Celebrity Masterchef, but lost in the final, and took up a role of an MP named James Holloway in the American drama series The Royals.

In April 2015, Maslen admitted that he had rejected the chance to return to EastEnders saying "I didn't want to go back just 18 months after leaving. There is an element of snobbery with soaps. It means people in the industry don't see you as an actor, they see you as a commodity." However, he made an unannounced return to the show on 24 December 2015, later confirming that this would be permanent. Maslen said "It was like I hadn't left. It felt a bit strange because there are new characters who I don't know – but that fits with the story".

Strictly Come Dancing
Maslen participated in the 2010 series of Strictly Come Dancing with professional dancer Natalie Lowe and his performances were favourably received by the judges. He was the 2nd celebrity of 2010 to score a 10 from the judges, following fellow EastEnders actress Kara Tointon scoring a 10 for her Pasodoble in week 5, the same week where Maslen scored three 10s for his Viennese Waltz. In week 7 he also received three 10s for his Jive, with Bruno stating that it was the best Jive since former EastEnders star Jill Halfpenny's in Series 2, and received just one point less. Maslen showed a natural talent for dancing, topping the leaderboard on many occasions, however was eliminated in week 11 of the series.

Awards
He was nominated in the top four for "Sexiest Male" at the British Soap Awards 2008, but was beaten by Rob James-Collier from Coronation Street. At the 2009 British Soap Awards, Maslen won in the Sexiest Male category, against fellow EastEnders actors Rob Kazinsky (Sean Slater) and John Partridge (Christian Clarke). He later went on to have a successful year at the 2010 British Soap Awards, winning both Best Actor and Sexiest Male. In 2011 and 2012, Maslen won "Sexiest Male" at the British Soap Awards.

Personal life
He is married to Estelle Maslen (née Rubio), who is the mother of his son Zak Alexander Maslen (born 25 January 2001). The couple were together for nine years before they were married on 6 September 2008. Several of Maslen's co-stars were in attendance at his wedding, including: Samantha Womack, Rita Simons, Charlie Clements, Jo Joyner, Steve McFadden, Barbara Windsor, Patsy Palmer, Diane Parish and Perry Fenwick.

He is best friends with his former EastEnders co-star Samantha Womack, whom he has known since they were teenagers, and her former husband Mark Womack. He is also godfather to their two children, Lily-Rose and Benjamin Womack. Benjamin is also best friends with Maslen's son Zak.

Maslen is a keen carp fisherman, and has been involved in many charity events.
