When I first took a look at this show, I was pretty much expecting another Bakugan rip-off. I was actually surprised when I took a look at this show. It was downright awesome. The premise is about a boy named Ky, who needs to find parts of an energy force named Kairu, after his fatherseparatesthem to keep them from the dark forces of evil. The premise may sound like whack, but once you get it, it is very interesting. The plots themselves are also very interesting as well. The animation too, flows very smoothly and is done very well, although somewhat unoriginal. The character designs too look pretty interesting, and thesceneries are drop dead gorgeous. The voices sound really good on the hero's side, but when comes to thevillains', it's rather annoying. The lip syncs, though, are very well matched, which helps the appearance of this show. The action scenes, though, are the very best part of this show. The action scenes are very well executed, and arebeautiful to look at. There was one complaint that I have about this, though. The characters kind of seem one-dimensional, and most of the villains themselves come off as snobbish jerks rather than actual villains.
All in all, the characters do need some improvements, but other than that, everything is seen pleasing here. The animation is beautiful, the action scenes are well executed, at the premise is very well done. If you ever take a look at this show, then switch to it. It's well worth your time.
Presentation: 9.5/10 The premise is very interesting, and most of the plots are great and very well executed.
Animation: 9.5/10 Artwork is very awesome, and the animation is just very inviting to look at.
Voice: 8/10 Some of the voices to come off as really annoying, but that's all there is to comment on.
Entertainment: 9/10 The characters are annoying, but the action scenes are very entertaining and enjoyable to look at.
Lasting Appeal: 9/10 The final verdict: watch it. It is one of the last good shows on CN.
FINAL SCORE: 9/10 Amazing

Publishing software giant Adobe Systems plans to announces a new electronic forms application that appears to be aimed at Microsoft's upcoming InfoPath product.
The as-yet unnamed product, which Adobe plans to introduce next year, allows companies to create and distribute interactive forms using Adobe's portable document format (PDF) and extensible markup language (XML), the fast-spreading standard behind Web services. XML support means data from forms designed with the software can be automatically sucked into backend software, such as corporate databases and customer relationship management (CRM) systems, eliminating the costly data re-entry associated with paper forms.
Microsoft is touting similar advantages for InfoPath, a part of the dramatically revamped Office productivity software line the company plans to introduce in a few months. InfoPath, formerly code-named XDocs, designs XML-based forms and ties them in to backend software to automate data exchange and delivery. Key differences in the Adobe product include reliance on the widespread PDF format, which can be read by any device equipped with the free Adobe Reader software. InfoPath forms can be used only by those who buy the application.

We have the pleasure to announce The Scrap Mag's new project: our first Compilation. The reason why we decided to create it, is on the first place, to give support to the underground music scene. The Scrap Mag's goal is not only to remain faithful to its philosophy of sharing its musical discoveries, but also to offer our music selection in two different formats: digital and physical. Moreover, especially in Barcelona and Spain, we would like to promote this musical scene, giving all these bands the opportunity to come to the city and share their music with us.
All the profits that The Scrap Mag will obtain from Bandcamp will be entirely for the artist. On the other hand, the profits that The Scrap Mag will receive from this first compilation, will be invested on the creation of future compilations. Just a tip, a part from the CD edition, in order to pay tribute to our vinyl collector's passion, we will be creating future editions in this format.
You can get this first compilation in Bandcamp, Lostracks Records (Barcelona) or via email: firstname.lastname@example.com If you want to order more than one copy via Bandcamp, please send us an email before buying.
We would like to give special thanks to all the artists that made this project come true. Also we want to underline the magnificent collaboration of Repli CD for its excellent CD production, to DDF Studio for the master edition, to Boyan Lazarov for his help, to Pablo Benito for the amazing artwork and to Lara Viñas for her PR and communication support to the magazine since it came out. And last but not least, to Toni Baidez for his job becoming a part of the new bands headhunter along with us.

Pint-size advantage for the nanobrewery
Crowlers are changing the way we take beer home
Ian Anderson 5:30 p.m., Sept. 18
Another sunny winter day in Pacific Beach resulted in crowds of people on bikes and skating and walking along the boardwalk on Saturday, January 18.
A noticeable difference in the beach scene must have brought disappointment to some: the usual sounds of happy people and loud music were missing from the Lahaina Beach House.
The beachfront deck of the popular bar and grill was empty and quiet. A small piece of paper taped to an orange construction cone stated, "Closed for remodeling. We apologize for any inconvenience." According to their Facebook page, the oceanfront deck will re-open on January 24.
As passersby went up to read the sign, some wondered aloud if the business would reopen. The past few weeks have seen the closing of two other longtime PB establishments, both on Garnet Avenue.
After reports of a sale had been circulating for months, Moondoggie's shut their doors once the New Year began. There is no notice at the site of what is next to come for the location.
Further east on Garnet, the Tiki House surprised many when they closed after decades of business. A $3000-a-month rent hike reportedly prompted owner Dave Miller to call it a day.
When the sign says "Closed for Remodeling" or "Close for Plumbing Problems" that usually means they're done! Gone! (and too chicken to tell customers the truth.) Too bad. All 3 of those places will be missed.
Do not speak before you know what you are talking about, they re-open Friday. Should they have stayed open while they ripped out their bathrooms????
Ken - Stick to your bubble in North County! Lahaina is re-opeing Friday!
This cycle of bar/business opening/closing has been going on in the PB - MB area since the Cave closed.
Lahainas is not closed for good. They will be re opening in a few days. Renovations were for the bathrooms that needed a facelift so very badly. Due to permits & health codes, you cannot have an open business with non functional facilities. The neighborhood classic will be back in action this week.

League of Legends: Riot teases possible new skin for Rumble, 'the hero of a fallen city'
If a new teaser posted by Riot Games is any indication, then it looks like Rumble, the Mechanized Menace, is getting a new skin. At the very least, he's getting an upgrade to his current skin. Posted to the "skin preview" section of the League of Legends website, Riot teased "the hero of a fallen city."
"How can I be their hero if I can't protect them?" the teaser reads. "This isn't the end. It's time for an upgrade. I'll show them what yordles are worth."
Unfortunately, the champion's back is to us so we can't see his face, but the context clues in the picture lead me to believe it's Rumble. You can clearly see it's a Yordle standing on top of what looks to be Rumble's mech (you can see the missles on the back as well as the spiked wrecking ball sticking up). Below is the splash art for Rumble for comparison and above is the teaser image for the new skin.
What do you think, time for an upgrade for Rumble?

Nature cannot be run like a business. It rebels if we try and crank up production in the expectation of bigger returns.
Show disrespect for nature's laws and watch out — which is what is happening to the world now. We'd surely better watch out because there are ominous signs that nature is showing us it is in control.
One of the biggest problems is artificial fertilisers and the runoffs, particulary excess nitrogen and phosphorous that leach into waterways and finally out into the seas. With unsustainable farming practices pouring chemicals willy-nilly onto vast areas of farmland, we are now endangering the oceans and its inhabitants.
Some scary scenarios, yet to be proven of course, show estimates about the world's fish stocks collapsing by 2050, partly through overfishing, and partly through the increasing number of dead zones in the ocean where pollution, including fertiliser run-offs, has depleted oxygen.
Ultimately any mess the world gets into because of overuse of chemicals causing rising pollution levels, can only be helped by sustainable growing practices. In the long run organic methods will be our savior.
Nature is already showing the symptoms of our disrespect and we will be punished for our greed in expecting too much too quickly, with no thought of the future.
As the first rays of the morning beamed out 2016, there were 7.4 billions people in the world. Estimates for 2100 are for a population of 11.2 billion.
Whether this is beyond the capacity of our planet to feed them all, time will tell and more importantly, nature will guide the human race with its magnificent intelligence and resourcefulness, to survive in the best way possible.
We all can do our bit with our home and community gardens. Producing locally, consuming locally, and using nature's fertilisers in the form of compost, returning food scraps to the soil, natural mineral rocks, animal remains and manures, and in fact anything that moves or grows, will sustain us and infinite generations to come — at least until the next ice-age, flood, big bang or cosmic collision!

CHARLES H. MILLER, wholesale and retail dealer in
meats, has been in business in Lima for a period of more than twenty
years. He is a son of J. J. Miller, a prominent merchant of Lima until
his retirement in 1875, who died in 1903.
Charles H. Miller was born in Lima in 1870, and was educated in the
common schools until he was 15 years of age, when he entered upon his
career in the meat business. Opening a retail store, he conducted it
continuously and in a very profitable manner until February, 1905, when
he increased the business by adding a wholesale department. His
establishment is most complete in every particular, being fitted with
machinery for the manufacture of all kinds of sausages, bologna, etc.,
and also equipped with an ice plant, which has a daily capacity of 10
tons. Great care is exercised to have everything of the best, and is
goods have a well-earned reputation for reliability and superiority.
In 1891 Mr. Miller was married to Elizabeth Weirmann, and a family
of three children have blessed their union, namely; Rosa, Eugene and
Harry. They are attendants of the German Reformed Church. Mr. Miller
is a Republican, but has never been active in politics, devoting his
time and attention to his business interests instead. Fraternally he is
a member of the Eagles, National Union and the Knights of Pythias.
REV. CHRISTIAN BADERTSCHER, a retired minister of the
German Reformed Church, who for more than 30 years was a successful
worker in the Master's vineyard, has been a resident of Allen County
since 1856, and counts among his friends all those who know him. Born
in Signau, Canton Bern, Switzerland, on April 22, 1842, he lived there
until his 14th year when his parents, Peter and Annie (Ashlaman)
Badertscher, came with their family to America. Landing in New York,
they at once came to Ohio, and settled in Allen County where, in less
than a year, the mother died. The father survived her several years.
He was engaged in the manufacture of spinning wheels a necessity in
almost every family in that time. He was the father of the following
children, viz: Barbara (Bucher), of Richland township; John U., a
retired farmer of Bluffton; Mathias, deceased; Elizabeth (Amstutz), of
Richland township; Peter, now a retired citizen of Lima, after working
40 years for the P., Ft. W. & C. Railway Company; Christian, Frederick,
a machinist of Pickaway County, Ohio; Annie (Bastinger), a widow, of
Lima, and Magdalena (Stager), of Bluffton.
After the death of his mother Christian Badertscher lived in the
family of the Rev. John Moser until his 21st year. From that time until
his marriage, in 1865, he hired out by the month as a farm hand.
Following this, he rented a farm one year and then purchased his present
farm of 80 acres in section 23, Richland Township. He cleared the
greater portion of this land and improved it with suitable buildings.
Mr. Badertscher has been very successful as a stock raiser, handling
horses, cattle and hogs. In 1871 he gave up farming and entered the
Wisconsin Mission Home, where he fitted himself for the ministry of the
German Reformed Church. He was regularly ordained to the service in
1875, and was given charge of the field at Clayton, Iowa. Two years was
spent in the work there, when he was returned to Ohio and stationed at
Findlay where he remained 10 years. His next church was at St. Marys,
Auglaize County, and he remained with that congregation about 14 years,
his labor in the various fields being attended with most satisfactory
and beneficial results.
Returning to his farm at the expiration of that time, he at once
began the cultivation of his land, being assisted by his youngest son,
Samuel. Being located in the oil belt, he leased the oil rights to
Michael Simmerman & Company, who drilled wells and began pumping but
later sold out their interest to our subject. Associated with Teter
Sebert and David Rosebach, Jr., of St. Marys, the firm of Badertscher &
Company was formed for the production of oil, three new wells being
drilled. Later these partners sold their part of the business to Henry
Schoneberger, of Chicago, a son-in-law of our subject, and the work was
continued under the same name, Mr. Badertscher being manager. Two more
oil wells were sunk, making seven wells now in operation, which are a
source of considerable revenue to their owners.
In June, 1842, Mary Ann Gratz was born in Putnam County, Ohio, to
Frederick and Annie (Lugibihl) Gratz, both of whom were natives of
Germany. Growing to womanhood she was married to Christian Badertscher
and became the mother of the following children: Sarah, wife of John
Finke, of St. Marys, Ohio; Noah, a farmer living near St. Marys, Ohio,
who married Matilda Roerbach; Annie, wife of Henry Schonberger, who owns
and conducts a large bakery in Chicago; John, who married Louisa Cock
and is a chair-maker residing at St. Marys; Daniel, unmarried, a chair
maker living at Marion, Indiana; Silas, who works in the chair factory
at St. Marys and is a musician and vocalist of ability, and Samuel, who
resides with his parents and conducts the farm. Rev. Christian
Badertscher is frequently called upon to assist the local aid. His
sermons are full of the force and energy which made his ministerial work
effective and are listened to with pleasure and satisfaction. He is a
Democrat in politics.
F. M. BELL, a wholesale merchant of Lima, was born in
1859 at Spring Hill, Champaign County, Ohio, and is the son of the late
William Bell, of Lima.
William Bell was one of the most enterprising citizens that ever
resided in Lima, and his prosperity was of such a nature that the entire
community was benefited by it. He was a stockholder in The Ohio
National Bank, and owned much fine residence property, and erected the
Bell Block on Main Street, adjoining the Opera House Block. This
structure is three stories high and 200 feet deep, with a 75 foot
frontage one of the best business blocks in the city. Mr. Bell's death
in 1902, was an irreparable loss to the community.
The parents of our subject came to Lima in 1864, and it was here he
reached man's estate. Having finished the primary schools, he entered
Notre Dame University in 1880, graduating from that institution four
years later. He at once entered into partnership with F. E. Harman, for
five years conducting a house furnishing establishment under the firm
name of Harman & Bell. Mr. Bell then became interested in the
production of oil, and was thus engaged for about five years, when the
Spanish American War enlisted his sympathies. He was Captain of Company
C, Second Ohio Infantry, U. S. Volunteers, and was in active service for
about one year, being stationed at Columbus, Ohio; Chattanooga,
Tennessee, and Macon Georgia. He took part in the grand review at
Chickamauga and was mustered out in February, 1899. Returning to Lima,
Mr. Bell embarked in his present business, and is well equipped to meet
almost any call for photographers', jewelers' and dental supplies. He
transacts a large volume of business, both retail and wholesale, drawing
his trade from an extensive territory about Lima.
In 1898 Mr. Bell was married to Lelia Kelly, daughter of Rev. John
Kelly, a retired Presbyterian minister, of Chandlersville, Muskingum
County, Ohio. Mr. and Mrs. Bell have two children Eleanor and Harold.
They are members of the Market Street Presbyterian Church at Lima. Mr.
Bell is a prominent member of the Knights of Pythias. He served as
chief of police during the mayoralty of Samuel A. Baxter, who first
organized and systematized the force.
JAMES W. GENSEL, assistant secretary of the South Side
Building & Loan Association, of Lima, was reared and educated in
Lafayette, Allen County. He was born in Jackson Township in 1863, and
is a son of John F. Gensel, who enlisted in Company I, 46th Reg. Ohio
Vol. Inf., and died in a hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 1864.
James W. Gensel taught school in this county about three years prior
to coming to Lima to accept the position of bookkeeper in the Golly &
Finley Iron Works. He remained with the company 10 years and left them
only to take the office of county treasurer, to which he had been
elected in the fall of 1899. Two years later he was re-elected to the
office and, at the expiration of his second term accepted his present
position with the South Side Building & Loan Association.
In 1888 Mr. Gensel was married to Mary Custer, who has borne him
five children, viz; Ferne Y., Harold F., Ralph C., Mildred L. and
Richard W. Mrs. Gensel is a daughter of Jacob Custer, who formerly
operated the stone quarries in Bath township, but is now living in
retirement in Lima. He is one of the oldest residents of the county,
having been born and reared here. Mr. Gensel is an active Democrat and
was formerly a member of the Democratic County Central Committee. He is
a member of Lima Lodge, No. 581, I. O. O. F. , and served as secretary
for two terms.
JACOB DIENSTBERGER, one of the pioneers of the county,
was born in Baden, Germany, July 4, 1831, and died in Allen County,
August 15, 1904, in his 72nd year.
The life of Jacob Dienstberger was one of long and continued
usefulness. It began in a humble home in Germany, in which he was
trained to habits of thrift and industry, and closed in a comfortable
home of his own making, surrounded by those who loved him best and
honored him most. He was 18 years old when he left Germany for the
United States and in Norwich, Connecticut; he completed his
apprenticeship as a blacksmith, which trade he had commenced to learn in
his native land. In September, 1851, he came to Delphos, Ohio, worked
for a short time in an iron foundry and then embarked in the blacksmith
business, associating himself with Israel Thornell. He was thus engaged
from 1860 until he became a soldier of the Civil War, serving honorably
throughout the entire period of hostilities. He returned to Delphos
after the war and resumed a business life in which he continued to be
active until 1890. For many years he was identified with the coal and
iron trade of Delphos and vicinity. The last years of his life were
spent in retirement in the comfortable home adjoining his place of
business on East Second Street, which he erected before the Civil War.
In his earlier years Mr. Dienstberger was a man of robust health and
unusual strength. He continued to retain this robustness until May,
1897, when he suffered a stroke of Parlaysis which caused him to be a
partial invalid during the remainder of his life. While this was a
calamity he was more fortunate than many a sufferer, because of the
faithful and loving care shown him by a most patient and devoted wife,
during the seven years of his invalidism. On Saturday, August 6, 1904,
he suffered from a second stroke of paralysis. The amputation of
several of his toes, previous to this, had much lowered his vital powers
and nine days after the second paralytic stroke he passed away. Four
weeks prior to his death, his only sister had died at Columbian Green,
Connecticut, and his decease left, as only survivor of his parents'
family, a brother, Nicholas, of Norwich, Connecticut, who also passed
away December 12, 1905.
A man of excellent business sense, the deceased gained a goodly
share of worldly goods, while his strict honesty in business dealings,
neighborly kindness and anxiety for the welfare of his family, brought
him esteem and respect from all with whom his life intermingled. His
funeral which was largely attended took place on August 18, 1904. The
G. A. R. attended in a body and many relatives and friends from out of
the city, paid their final respects to the departed. The burial was in
the West Side Cemetery, Delphos. His resting place is now marked by one
of the finest granite monuments on the grounds. The parents of Mrs.
Deinstberger and a brother also rest in this cemetery.
The widow of the late Jacob Dienstberger was born in Saxony,
Germany, January 15, 1835, and is a daughter of Christopher and
Magdaline (Grundmiller) Gessner. The parents emigrated to America in
1841, when the daughter was about five years old, and Mrs. Dienstberger
is the only survivor of three children, viz: Charles, who died aged 77
years, leaving two sons and two daughters living at De Graff, Ohio;
Caroline (Mrs. Dienstberger), and Adam, who died March 17, 1885, aged 45
years, leaving a widow, two sons and two daughters.
Like many other German emigrants Mr. Gessner came to the United
States with the idea of securing a comfortable home for his wife and
children, but he had little capital except a kit of tools, which he
brought from his old home and in the use of which he was very skillful.
The little family was made welcome in the log cabin of a neighbor, who
had settled previously in Ohio, and Mr. Gessner soon erected a house on
a tract between Sugar and Hawk Creeks. There the family lived until he
secured a more desirable farm of 80 acres in Washington Township, Van
Wert County, which he subsequently cleared. He was well-known
throughout the country, his faculty for mending clocks, watches and
anything broken, bringing many visitors to his place.
Mrs. Dienstberer remembers when the family meals were eaten off a
German chest, but later the father fashioned an excellent table, made
creditable chairs by hand, and even guns, using for the latter iron
parts which he had brought from Germany. His other tools, such as
pitchforks, he made from crooked forks of trees found in the forest, and
while the neighboring farmers were threshing their grain by driving
their horses over it, he was using a flail thresher, with a long wooden
handle and a piece of leather, fashioned by his own hands. Mrs.
Dienstberger's mother was an adept at spinning flax and wool, coloring
them and converting then into the plain, sensible garments of that day,
while the father made the family shoes. Their evening lamp was a
candle, with the exception of an old grease lamp brought from Germany.
Cooking was all done at the open fire place, and there are those still
living who declare that no present day food has the appetizing flavor of
that cooked in the old Dutch oven. The educational opportunities of the
time and place were restricted to the most elementary branches.
Religious instruction, however, was not neglected, Rev. Donier, a
Lutheran pastor, having charge of a number of scattered congregations,
including that at Elida, where Mrs. Dienstberger learned her catechism
and attended church.
On September 26, 1853, Caroline Gessner and Jacob Dienstberger were
united in marriage, and in 1903, their "Golden Wedding" was celebrated
most enjoyably. All the children, the grandchildren and two
great-grandchildren were present. No one present on that occasion will
ever forget the touching remarks made by Mr. Dienstberger, in which he
referred to his boyhood days in Germany and to the family events of his
long and happy married life of half a century.
The children of Jacob and Caroline Dienstberger were: Charles,
Amelia, Mary and Christopher.
Charles Dienstberger was born in 1854 and educated at Delphos. At
the age of 16 years he learned the wagon and carriage making trade with
his father, and now conducts an extensive business in his fine two-story
brick shop, 24 by 66 feet in dimensions, which is fitted with modern
machinery for the repair and manufacture of everything in his line,
being furnished also with a large stock of horseshoes, bolts and other
blacksmith supplies. He also conducts a large coal yard, in 1875 being
admitted to partnership in this industry by his father, who had
established it. In 1878 he entered into a co partnership with Henry Kalt
and thus continued until 1901, when he purchased his partners interest.
He is one of the substantial and representative business men of Delphos.
From 1885 until 1889 he was treasurer of the town. For six years he has
been a member of the Board of Public Affairs, and carefully and capably
managed his own business interests, as well as those of his widowed
mother. He married Rosana Weideman and they have four children, viz:
Cedelia, who graduated from the Delphos High School, May 19, 1900, and
is now a student at Lima College, in bookkeeping, stenography and
typewriting, being also an accomplished musician; William, Arnold and
Amelia Dienstberger, who married Tobias Foster of Spencerville, Ohio,
has three children, viz: Laura, who married (first) Edward Dye and
(second) Charles Iseman; Flora, who married Hugo Hummel and has one
daughter, Fern; and Wilbert Foster all of Spencerville.
Mary Dienstberger married Henry Jettinghoff, the leading clothing
merchant at Delphos.
Christopher Dienstberger married Katie Flaspoehler and has seven
children, viz: Jacob, Nora, who lives with her grandmother, and
Nicholas, Amelia, Myra, Effie and Harmon.
Mrs. Dienstberger has lived to see the changes of 65 years in Allen
County. She is a consistent and valued member of the Lutheran Church at
Delphos and is much beloved for her many Christian virtues, her
neighborly kindness and the love and service she has so cheerfully given
to her family, whether in health of sickness.

All Product Details
Fifty chicken recipes, each more seductive than the last, in a book that makes every dinner a turn-on.
"I want you to see this. Then you'll know everything. It's a cookbook," he says and opens to some recipes, with color photos. "I want to prepare you, very much."

A look ahead at Day 3
Published: February 26th, 2011 | Tags: 2011 NFL Scouting Combine, Cam Newton, Jerry Reese, Pat Shurmur, Tom Heckert
INDIANAPOLIS — And on the third day, players take the field at the NFL Scouting Combine.
After two days of nearly non-stop news conferences, the focus turns to the field for the first time Saturday as prospects begin drills. Yes, it's a far cry from actual football, with players in T-shirts and compression shorts, but nonetheless, scouts, coaches and general managers will document every moment on their stopwatches. I'll be camped out on the sidelines and around Lucas Oil Stadium most of the day bringing you the latest of what unfolds.
- The most-awaited moment of the day might be when Auburn QB Cam Newton takes the podium in the media center sometime in the afternoon. It was believed that Newton would address the media Friday, like many of the other QBs, but we were forced to wait another day.
- The pace in the media center will be slower, with three NFL types scheduled to speak: Giants GM Jerry Reese (10 a.m.), Browns GM Tom Heckert (3 p.m.) and Browns coach Pat Shurmur (3:15 p.m.). Select members of Groups 7, 8 and 9, the defensive linemen and linebackers, also are expected to be made available to the media.
- On the field, the offensive linemen and tight ends will be put through the paces in the 40-yard dash, broad jump, vertical jump, 3-cone drills, skill drills and shuttles.
- The quarterbacks, receivers and running backs take part in psychological testing (doesn't that sound enjoyable?) during the morning, followed by their bench-press sessions during the afternoon.
- The defensive linemen and linebackers will take part in their medical exams and psychological testing before scheduled interviews with coaches and teams in the evening.

Worry doesn't change the situation
July 25, 2014
There is this guy I know that thinks he has a superpower. I know, it sounds crazy, and if you ask him about it, he won't say it's a superpower, he would say he is just "normal." But the way he acts, it is clear he thinks he has a superpower. He uses this power more often than he realizes, almost by accident, and every time he does, it takes a toll on his life – physically, emotionally, even spiritually – and I have seen the damage it does. Literally, he believes that he can change the outcome of a situation in his life or in the world by simply focusing the power of his mind on all that could go wrong. I have given him a superhero name: He is Worry-Man.
Whenever he begins to worry about a situation, whether it is something in his life or something in the news, he begins to take whatever that situation is and roll it over and over in his mind, intently looking at all the facets of what could go wrong, how it would affect him and his family, or the economy, or whatever his mind attaches to as he worries. And he can spin whatever difficult situation he is facing into a giant ball of stress and worry in no time at all. Unfortunately, that ball of stress eats away at his health, his relationships with people, his emotions and his relationship with God.
And here is the worst part: Worry does nothing to change the situation. It is worthless, a waste of time and energy. It's like riding a stationary bike to Reno – you can pedal all day, but you are not going to get anywhere. That is what happens when we worry – nothing. Yet so many people spend so much time stressing and worrying over situations instead of dealing with them. And all that worry and stress takes its toll on our bodies; the majority of doctor visits in our society today are about stress related symptoms.
Knowing this was an issue for people, Jesus addressed it head on in Luke 12:25-26. "Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? And if worry can't accomplish a little thing like that, what's the use of worrying over bigger things?" The answer is: Of course not. Worry is not a superpower, it's a waste.
So what do we do instead? What is the antidote to worry, since it really is not a superpower, just a waste of time? "Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done." (Philippians 4:6 NLT). Instead of worrying, pray. Talk to God about what is bothering you, what has you stressed and worried, because He has invited you to unload your worries on Him. And be thankful for what you have received in life, because gratitude is a much healthier emotion than worry. Prayer and gratitude are stronger than Worry-Man any day.

Pitta showcases his tight end skills at BYU pro day
Published: March 13th, 2010 | Tags: 2010 Pro Days, Andrew George, Dennis Pitta, Jan Jorgensen, Manase Tonga, Max Hall
BYU's Dennis Pitta (6-foot-4 1/2, 245 pounds) is quietly having a very nice pre-draft workout season.
The athletic tight end showed well at the Cougars' pro day, just two weeks after an outstanding NFL Scouting Combine effort.
He was a top performer at his position in the bench press, the vertical jump, the broad jump, the three-cone drill, the short shuttle and the long shuttle.
Those combine numbers were good enough that he chose not to do any workout drills at his pro day, but scouts report that he did look very good in the positon drills.
Pitta has solid hands, but his blocking is still somewhat of a question mark.
In total, nine players from BYU and three other small-school players worked out for representatives from 15 teams. The Seahawks, Browns, Bengals, Ravens and Rams all had scouts in attendance.
Here is a look at the four other noteworthy prospects:
QB Max Hall (6-0 3/8, 204) ran the 40-yard dash in 4.77 seconds, and stood on the rest of his numbers from the combine.
FB Manase Tonga (5-11, 245) ran 4.72 and 4.76 in the 40, had a 4.68-second short shuttle, a 7.50-second three-cone drill and stood on his combine numbers for vertical and broad jump. He also did positional workouts.
DE Jan Jorgensen (6-2, 256) ran a 4.93 and 4.95 in the 40, had a 34-inch vertical jump, an 8-foot, 3-inch broad jump, a 4.34 short shuttle, a 7.35 three-cone drill and did 29 bench press repititions at 225 pounds. He did not do positional drills.
TE Andrew George (6-4 1/4, 247) ran a 4.79 and 4.82 in the 40, had a 35-inch vertical jump, a 9-5 broad jump, a 4.26 short shuttle, a 7.21 three-cone drill and did not do the bench press.

Playmate of the Year sells her 2007 Mini Cooper S Convertible
In today's economy it is hard to sell almost any kind of car. It mainly comes down to the price. So $34,999.99 for a two year old Mini Coopes S Convertible with 12,900 miles is definitely too much.
Maybe not if the car was owned by a celebrity. Is Sara Jean Underwood celebrity?
Well she was Playmate of the Year in 2007 and this car was given to her at the Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills, CA.
Now Sara is selling this red convertible and hopes to cash in $34,999.99. According to an Ebay auction she no longer needs this car because she has moved back to Oregon(Whats with the Oregon? Oregon has plenty of sunny days for "topless" driving). Photos of her and the car have been published in Playboy Magazine and have been seen on the E!'s "The Girls Next Door" TV show.
Do these "published" photos or the fact that Playmate of the Year owned the car really add any value? Absolutely if the car would come with her for even a day:) Lets face it, she is just super hot!
As Mini Cooper S Convertible is one hot car, we have the pictures below she is using to sell it(if you can spot the car):

over this announcement coming out of Los Angeles. There are only two teams that could possibly move. One is the Saints. The other?
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm proud to introduce….
It'll be great! Instead of a bunch of transplants in Florida who don't care about the Jags, they'll have a bunch of transplants in California who don't care about the Jags.
Better start house hunting, Vic.
Check out this interesting piece on mock drafts. It's awesome to find out just how clutch the Freeney pick was.
Demond Sanders: It is amazing that in a league of 32 teams only 2 or possibly 3 teams (Buffalo is rumored to be considering a move to Toronto) could realistically move. Shows you how strong the NFL is as a league. I would be shocked if the Saints moved at this point. So yeah. . . it's gonna happen.

Carroll Shelby took the idea of early sports cars and fitted them up with superchargers and cool aesthetic upgrades. Because of this he could be thought to be the grandfather of muscle cars, especially if he was modding them with supercharged engines way back in 1964 and went on to apply the same treatment to the Mustang a couple of years later. A fast and limited edition version of the Cobra was, at one time, one of the quickest accelerating street-legal cars in the world at just over 3 seconds - this beats most performance cars at this day and age, never mind about speeds in the mid 60s which were around 7-8 seconds!
This 1/18 red and white 1964 Shelby Cobra 427 is produced by Yat-Ming, a prestigious Chinese manufacturer of diecast model cars and accessories. It produces muscle cars, European sedans and North American trucks and specializes in realistic, high-quality cars for serious adult collectors. If you're looking for a faithful replica of a rare or niche car, this is the firm to go to.

New York (Mar. 5)
— Armed with surpluses totaling billions of dollars — and growing
each year — Arab oil producing states are building a new international banking system, the American Jewish Congress reported in the latest issue of its publication, Boycott Report.
Warning that Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) petrodollars could give the Arabs "unprecedented influence over Western economics and politics," Boycott Report said the OPEC surplus of $7 billion in 1973 has grown to $343 billion. Of this sum, $120 billion was added in 1980 alone. Arab countries which formerly borrowed through international bond and credit markets are now increasingly turning to Arab banks, according to the Boycott Report. It added:
"In the last few months, every major syndicated loan from the Mideast has been led or coled by an Arab institution. A further signal of the decline of American bank influence in the Mideast is the sale by Citibank of control of its branches in Saudi Arabia, a sale compelled by Saudi authorities. All other foreign banks in that country have already been nationalized."
According to the AJCongress report, there are five types of Arab banks:
Government banks (or the treasury departments of Mideast states) which act directly as commercial banks — for example, the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA).
Arab development banks, such as the Islamic Development Bank and the Arab Fund for Social and Economic Development, which make subsidized loans to Moslem countries suffering from oil deficits.
Quasi-governmental banks, such as the Kuwait Investment Co.; Kuwait Foreign Trade, Contracting and Investment Co.; and Kuwait International Investment Co., which play a large role in the Eurodollar underwriting.
Consortium banks, such as the Union de Banques Arabes et Francaise (UBAF) and Banque Arabe et Internationale de'Investissment (BAII), in which many American and European banks participate.
"Private" banks, such as the newly-formed Arab Banking Corp. (owned by Kuwait, Libya and Abu Dhabi), which has an authorized capital of $1 billion and engages in loan syndications, project-and trade-financing and Eurobank trading.
An indication of the flow of petrodollars is the plan of the National Bank of Abu Dhabi to establish a branch in Washington, D.C. to be used to recycle oil money through the Western hemisphere.
Meanwhile, Boycott Report disclosed that Arab efforts to buy equity interests in U.S. banks continue. Suliman Olayam has acquired stock in nine banks, including a 7.5 percent stake (together with his partner, Prince Khaled of Saudi Arabia) in the First Chicago Corporation, the ninth largest bank holding company in the country.
In the other eight banks in which Olayam has invested, his holdings are about one percent. They include Chase Manhattan (New York), Mellon (Pittsburgh) and major bank institutions in Cleveland, Honolulu, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis and Phoenix.
In addition, Boycott Report said, a group of Arabs led by Sheikh Kamal Adham, former Saudi chief of intelligence, has purchased shares of Financial General Bankshares, Inc. of Washington, D. C. for $160 million. Another shareholder is Abdullah Darwaish, said by Forbes Magazine to be acting on behalf of the royal family of Abu Dhabi.
At the same time, purchases of shares in American companies by Arab investors have reached record levels, according to Boycott Report. It quoted a report by the Securities Industry Association that Arab purchases jumped from $962 million in the first quarter of 1980 to $1 billion in the second quarter and $1.7 billion in the third. The record investment in American securities was attributed to the drop in the price of gold and other precious metals. These figures do not include stocks purchased by Arab banks or governments.
To service these purchases, Petra Capital Corporation has been established, with Peter Tanous as its director. It is now seeking membership in the New York Stock Exchange. If accepted, it will become the first Arab-owned investment banking firm on the Exchange. Tanous and his associate, William Hanna, are of Lebanese descent. Petra is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a Netherland Antilles corporation, 70 percent of whose shares are held by Arabs, the Boycott report said.
One indication of the importance of Arab holdings in U.S. firms, the AJCongress report stated, was the recent election of Olayam to the Board of Directors of the Mobil Corporation, the first time an Arab has been elected director of a major oil concern.
Despite the record amount of purchases, Boycott Report said, all of the OPEC nations combined owned only one percent of the corporate stock of American companies as of the end of 1978, the latest year for which complete figures are available.

Your Birth Certificate
If someone were to challenge you to go find your birth certificate as quickly as you could, how long would it take you? Often times, the length of time it would take someone to find their birth record is directly proportional to how important they think their birth certificate is.
Those who understand that it is the most important document you will ever own know exactly where it is; those who do not have that level of understanding either don't have a copy of it at all or they have a vague idea of where it might be. There are, however, a number of reasons you should know exactly where your birth certificate is.
Most folks first realize the importance of birth records long before they are old enough to leave the house. After all, your parents may have used it when you were originally registered for school. If you changed schools, your official birth certificate was probably a standard enrolment requirement, so even before you were ready to move out and start your own life, your birth record has already become an essential part of life.
As you get older, your birth record only increases in importance. If you are like most Americans, you probably got your driver's license when you were 16 or 17. You can't get a driver's license or a state ID card without a birth certificate.
With today's increased border security, the federal government has suggested that even causal trips to our neighbours to the north and south require a passport. If you plan on exploring Europe, Asia or Africa at some point, you will need a passport for sure. These days, government regulations require a valid official copy of your birth certificate to get a passport. No birth certificate? You simply won't be allowed to apply for a passport.
Finally, even if you never drive a car or leave the United States, you will still need an official copy of your birth records to get married. Every year, tens of thousands of Americans say 'I Do' from coast to coast. You risk being unprepared when Cupid's Arrow strikes if you don't have a copy of your birth certificate.
As you can see, there are a multitude of reasons to always have a valid copy of your birth certificate on hand at all times. It really is the single most important document you will ever own.

2006 Big 12 Championship
Dates: Monday-Tuesday, April 24-25
Location: Southern Hills Country Club; Tulsa, Okla.
Par/Yardage: 70/7,055
Host: Oklahoma State
Field: 12 (Baylor, Colorado, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech).
Live scoring: www.golfstat.com
The 10th-ranked Baylor men's golf team seeks its second conference title as it competes in the 2006 Big 12 Men's Golf Championship Monday and Tuesday, April 24-25, at the 7,055-yard, par-70 Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Okla.
Two rounds will be played Monday, followed by the final round Tuesday. The Bears will start from the 10th tee at 8 a.m. in the first round. The final round tee times are at 8 and 8:50 a.m. and will be determined by the first day's standings.
The tournament features three of the top four players in collegiate golf according to Golfweek, including Baylor's own senior Ryan Baca, who ranks third. Oklahoma State's Pablo Martin is the top-rated player in the country and Oklahoma's Anthony Kim, the defending Big 12 individual champion, ranks fourth. Texas Tech's Oscar Floren also ranks among the top 10, coming in at ninth.
The Bears won the 2001 championship and Worth Williams claimed the individual victory at the tournament at Prairie Dunes Golf and Country Club in Hutchinson, Kan. Last year, Baylor finished seventh after a ninth-place showing in 2004.
Oklahoma State is the defending champion after unseating Texas, which had won three straight Big 12 titles since Baylor's victory in 2001. The Cowboys have won four titles, Texas has three and Baylor and Kansas have one each.
Baca leads the Big 12 with a 70.30 stroke average, which is on pace to break Aaron Pellegrom's school record of 71.61 set during the 1999-2000 season. Baca has won three events this year and has a pair of second-place finishes, including last week's Aggie Invitational. Junior Jeremy Frye and sophomore Wes Williams have started every tournament this season.
The team will await the announcement of the NCAA Regional fields May 8, before competing in The Maxwell May 13-14, in Ardmore, Okla. The NCAA Regionals will be held May 18-20 in Cleveland, Ohio; Orlando, Fla., or Tucson, Ariz.

But over time the phone has gotten more and more sluggish. It usually takes 4 seconds to get to the camera and around 20 seconds to browse and show a photo. There was never a definitive moment, but the phone just got slower and slower.
The usage of apps is in my opinion quite modest, with viber taking up most (49mb) memory followed by email taking up 41mb RAM. I do not consider myself a person with a lot of apps.
Would it help if I got a faster memory card? My current one gives 3mb/s write and 9mb/s read (default memory) or shall I try to use a custom ROM in order to free up some RAM by disabling many of the samsung/google bloatwares that I never use?
These are my "stats":

Printed letters, Jan. 11, 2011
The term "invocation" is questionable as used by Amy Hamilton in her article about an atheist's verbal offering at the beginning of a recent Grand Junction City Council meeting.
The word "invocation" connotes an appeal or summons to a higher power. The highest power to an atheist is ego, which is eminently obvious and perpetually present. No particular entreaty is required.
Keep Social Security for those who need it
This is in reply to letter writer Bill Marvel's response to John Salazar's op-ed article.
Regarding the cutting back or elimination of Social Security, if Marvel is worried about rioting when the Chinese stop buying our debt, he should also think about the rioting that will result from the severe reduction or elimination of Social Security, and the associated homelessness and destitution.
In a perfect world, everyone would have a safe and secure job where they could sock away 10 percent of their income, and with proper investments, retire in 30 to 50 years with plenty of money. However, our world is far from perfect.
Our economy has become so unstable since the 1960s that many people find themselves secure one minute, and destitute the next. Look at all the retirement plans and 401(k)s that were destroyed in the last economic meltdown.
Many people now do not have enough to retire on, and it's not always their fault. Social Security needs to be there for those who need it!
I have paid into Social Security since I was 16, and I am now 50. It would infuriate me to see all that money that was taken from my paycheck and promised to me at retirement just vaporize into thin air.
Yes, my previous employers gambled away my retirement on risky investments several times, and I will probably need it.
We can solve the Social Security problem by designing it to be an "as-needed" system.
If people's net worth when they retire is such that they can get along fine without it, then they don't get it. If someone is retiring at the poverty level, then they should get their full benefit.
If a modest 1 percent to 2 percent tax hike is also needed, I'm willing to pay it to help ensure Social Security will be there when I retire.
I once overheard a very well-to-do retiree say, "My Social Security is just my play money for toys and Las Vegas trips." Why should this person even be allowed to collect it if others need it and he doesn't?

Hunters don't need more rules, restrictions
First, let me qualify myself. I have been a "subsistence" hunter for 60-plus years and have harvested deer, elk and bear. I have used every legal method for harvesting.
Now let's get to the meat (pun intended) of the subject. Richard Kendall followed a bear into its den. My thoughts are, "So what? Braver than I am."
I have also killed a bear in a hole in the ground, but it was because the bear had run from me and was trying to hide. I did not need to crawl into the hole after it.
As to "fair chase," what about the hunter who hides in the brush with complete camouflage and grease paint, then kills the unsuspecting animal as it walks by, no more than 10 yards or so away?
And what about another type of hunter, who has been mentioned by another letter writer? Using a spotting scope or binoculars, this hunter selects an unsuspecting trophy several hundred yards away, then collects the animal with a high power rifle and scope that can kill over into the next county.
What is a hunter to do? Be allowed to shoot only game that is at a full run away from you across an open meadow or hillside? That really makes for delicious, tender and tasty meat, what with all the adrenaline pumped through out their system, as well as being just a nonsensical idea.
Hunting is to go out, find, then harvest. I think the method used should be up to the individual hunter using his or her own moral discretion, as long as the method is legal.
There are enough laws and regulations on the books. We do not need any more unless it would increase public safety. And that leads into the suggestion of "Let's outlaw hunting altogether, in the interest of public safety."
Man, do you hear the outcry I have created? Sorry about that fellow hunters. Just wanted to show how asinine that thought is.

Amsterdam, the Netherlands and Solna, Sweden – Royal Philips Electronics (AEX: PHI, NYSE: PHG) announced today that it has agreed to acquire the mammography equipment product line of Sectra AB (NASDAQ OMX Stockholm: SECT B), a Swedish provider of medical systems and secure communication systems. With this acquisition Philips will broaden its product portfolio with a unique digital mammography solution that enables breast screening with less burden to women in terms of X-ray radiation dose.
Under the terms of the agreement, Philips will pay a cash consideration of EUR 57.5 million to acquire Sectra's mammography equipment business on a cash and debt-free basis. The agreement also includes an additional possible earn-out of EUR 12.5 million in accordance with specific terms and conditions. Approximately 110 people are expected to transfer with the business. The closing of the transaction, which is subject to certain contractual and other closing conditions, is expected in the third quarter of 2011.
"We strive to advance patient care by improving the timely detection of many of today's deadly diseases, including breast cancer," said Steve Rusckowski, CEO of Philips Healthcare. "The investment in this advanced digital mammography technology marks an important step in the execution of Philips' strategy to expand its Woman Healthcare portfolio with a wider range of screening digital mammography systems."
Digital mammography has proven to be a powerful diagnostic tool for the early detection of breast cancer, a disease that killed 458,000 women globally in 2010. The technology uses X-rays that are detected digitally and helps a doctor to identify abnormalities in breast tissue.
Sectra's MicroDose Mammography solution will complement Philips' offering in digital mammography and delivers high quality breast images while exposing women to up to 50 percent less X-ray radiation dose than other digital mammography systems. Moreover, the MicroDose Mammography technology offers opportunities for future innovative imaging solutions that provide information beyond 2D anatomical breast images.

All four of the satellite speakers look identical, so I won't be going over each one individually. Each satellite is black with silver accents on both sides of the base and the side covers. The upper portion of the speakers has a clear cover that can be removed. You can then download and add artwork to further customize your speaker system (more on that in a bit). The speakers sit on the stand at a slight angle, but that can be adjusted, as we will see later. A Logitech logo is present on the removable speaker covers.
Here we see one of the satellites with the speaker cover removed. Each satellite speaker uses two 2" laser tuned drivers to deliver audio.
As you can see, the center channel speaker is essentially just another satellite, laid horizontally with its mounting bracket on the bottom. The mounting bracket itself is a little different, however, and allows you to mount the speaker directly to an LCD monitor if you choose.
Next on the list is the subwoofer and control module...

Maserati Quattroporte - GTA San Andreas - www.sitedogta.com.br - Maserati - www.sitedogta.com.br - In the early 1960s, Maserati's reputation was at a high. With growing sales, Prince Karim Aga Khan ordered a special Maserati 5000 WP, chassis no. 103060, designed by Pietro Frua. The following year, Maserati showed the first-generation Quattroporte of 1963, which bore a striking resemblance to the earlier drawing. Also designed by Frua, the 1963 'Tipo 107' Quattroporte joined two other notable grand tourers, the Facel Vega and the Lagonda Rapide, which could comfortably do 200 km/h (124 mph) on the new motorways of Europe. However, the Quattroporte could be said to have been the first car specifically designed for this purpose. It was equipped with a 4.1 L (4136 cc/252 in
