SANTO DOMINGO.- An Egypt-Dominican archaeological team which excavates a dig to look for the tombs of Cleopatra and Marc Antony has made important findings, said Friday doctor Kathleen Martinez, the Dominican embassy's Cultural attaché in that Arab country and the group’s leader.
Martinez said the findings were possible by the work of leading researchers and Egyptian technicians, who’ve worked for more than four years in a Ptolemaic temple in the outskirts of Alexandria, where she believes Cleopatra and the Roman general are buried. “He had to be a moved to a point away from the city of Alexandria, to preserve the bodies of disgrace for the Romans, by then victorious agaisnt the queen and her ally.”
Interviewed on Colorvision Channel 9 and later in a press conference in the Foreign Relations Ministry (SEREX), the researcher said she’s studied the Egyptian queen’s possible burial sites for the last 15 years, and which has fueled numerous myths and doubts.
The Egyptologist, who’s in Dominican Republic after taking a recess in the excavations to resume in November, said her project was approved after she presented her theory to Egypt’s Antiques Council four years ago.
Martinez added that found so far is an alabaster statue believed to be of Cleopatra and a mask which could belong to Marc Antony.

"(Especially if the final game is against USA)." That's unlikely since the USA team, full of performance enhancing drugs, can't even beat Mexico without foreign players.
"(What I want to happen next is to win the world baseball classic )." Those Japanese and Cubans are unimaginably tenacious when they win a baseball honor. It's almost like life and death to them.
The DR has the big names in the game, but can the DR it put all together without the yankees bossing them around.

Just looked up Inferiority complex in the dictionary and the complete definition was............. Belial. What a jealous soul. Must be a doorman, or dishwasher, seeing people who earn a lot and crying to himself, "why not me".
Fact is that out of about 900 players, we represent less than 10% of the major leagues, including most of the players that are criticized for showboating (even though they are great players they still don't try as hard as they should). We also have several players with bat problems. Sammy Sosa got caught with his corked bat, Juan Marichal hit Johnny Roseboro over the head during a game with his bat, to name a few. I would also remind you that several of our players have been indicated in steroid investigations including Tejada.

This is wonderful news...That's how one shows their patriotism, by being the best that they can be in all their endeavors , not by bashing other nationalities. Kudos to Ms. Martinez, una Dominicana autentica.

The Martinez expedition's song (sung to the tune of "California, Here I Come!")
should be:
Cleopatra here I come
Ceaser's dead, but don't be glum
I love you, think of you
Night time and day
I'll woo you, sing to you
Hear me Cleo when I say
That I'd gladly walk a mile
Just for your Egyptian smile
Open up that river Nile
Cleopatra here I come!

"Cleopatra here I come!"
Figuratively speaking.
"Ceaser's dead, but don't be glum"
He's a mummy, you know.
"I love you, think of you
Night time and day"
Preoccupied, huh?
"I'll woo you, sing to you"
So, after "Ceaser," you.
"Hear me Cleo when I say
That I'd gladly walk a mile"
But will you run one?
"Just for your Egyptian smile"
You don't want any them buried treasures?
"Open up that river Nile"
Open up! That's what everybody ask.
