Optimistic thinking is a resiliency skill that helps people to overcome adversity and reach life goals. Remember the old metaphor "Is the glass is half-full or half-empty?" This is a perfect example of how the same event can be looked at in a positive or negative light. Positive reframing means trying to reconsider things in a positive light, and it is a powerful way to transform your thinking.
Here's an example of positive reframing that I really love. A woman was new to a large company and was trying very hard to make a good impression on her coworkers. One day, responding to a widely sent email, she accidentally attached a personal document about her financial difficulties instead of the intended form. Realizing the mistake to her chagrin, she quickly sent out a new email with the message "…Well at least it wasn't a love letter ;)" Her coworkers got a kick out of her response, and an event that could have caused her to look unprofessional actually improved her coworkers' opinions of her.

Caterham end test early after Kobayashi shunt
Caterham have cut short their Barcelona Formula 1 Test after determining that the damage inflicted on their car, after Kamui Kobayashi's crash on day one, was not repairable in time to continue testing. Caterham released a brief statement: 'Having assessed the damage to chassis CT05-03 after Kamui's accident yesterday in the final half hour day one we have decided not to run on day two. While obviously not ideal, this ensures the team can now focus on the next Grand Prix in Monaco, starting next week.' At the end of day one in Spain, Kobayashi reflected, "Unfortunately in the last half hour I went off in turn three on run 22 and hit the barriers pretty hard. There is quite a lot of...

Stocks down as pessimism grows
Published: Saturday, September 23, 2006 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 22, 2006 at 11:00 p.m.
NEW YORK | Wall Streets growing pessimism about the economy sent stocks down for a second straight day Friday, as investors lost the enthusiasm that followed Wednesdays Federal Reserve decision to leave interest rates unchanged.
I think the markets are all of a sudden worried about slower growth," said Dean Junkans, chief investment officer for Wells Fargo Private Client Services. I wouldnt put as much emphasis on one number as the market seems to have done in the last couple days," he said, referring to the Philadelphia Fed figure on falling manufacturing activity.
Junkans contends the markets have overreacted to the Philadelphia data and were perhaps looking for a reason to pause after posting strong gains in September.
If youre looking to take some profits that number probably gave you a reason to do that," he said.

To mark IDC Herzliya's 20th anniversary, we spent a day following Prof. Uriel Reichman, IDC's founder and president, and Jonathan Davis, VP for External Relations, around its delightful campus.
Just like an office fire alarm, the Gaza flotilla affair sent thousands of Jews all over the word into a well-practiced drill.
Stage One: rush to check out our own trusted websites for the truth. Stage Two: check e-mails incoming from friends, and all the links they've embedded to the precious few unbiased media outlets – and rejoice when one actually has the guts to say something good about Israel. Stage Three: start forwarding the best of these to as many of our e-mail contacts as possible.
But it's at Stage Three that something holds you back, particularly if you are living and working outside Israel. It's like encountering a fire door that should be open to the street, but is locked from the outside. You want to be shouting "fire…fire" and making sure everyone in the building gets to hear. But then you ask yourself: "Maybe there are people in important meetings who would rather not be disturbed?"
Is this logical?
In our context, I am talking about the moment you are ready to copy and paste all your e-mail addresses into this pro-Israel message, and then you hesitate. First you start extracting the gentiles from the list – after all, why risk losing a longstanding friendship? Most of them, you figure, must surely be on our side – you hope! As for the others, well, what's the point? They'll never change their minds anyway. Then go the business contacts – they probably don't want to be disturbed and, besides, why risk profits over politics?
Pretty soon the list is pruned down to more or less the same as your last mailing; the same people who support Israel through thick and thin. Multiply this by all our Diaspora e-mailers and bloggers and most of us wind up talking to…ourselves.
Human nature being what it is, I don't expect this behavior will change any time soon. And if there is any PR lesson from the flotilla disaster, it is that even when we get our dramatic videos out in record time, it's simply not soon enough to head off our detractors. In an ideal world, Israel should have been telling the Gaza/Hamas narrative from the moment the ships were first leased for this flotilla, so that, by the time of the incident, its response to the world could simply have been: "We told you so" instead of all the rushed briefings and wringing of hands.
But our world is far from ideal, and each time Israel sent out its message in a bottle, it was quickly overwhelmed by the towering waves of the BBC and CNN and sank like a stone. Now we have Al Jazeera, which takes the trouble to actually dredge up our messages so they can sink them a second time. And to make things even worse, here in Europe we have Iran's Press TV, with veiled anchors prattling the murderous gospel of the mullahs 24-hours a day.
The only breath of fresh air is Fox News Channel, which last week put out a Glenn Beck show so unbelievably pro-Israel that I am still licking my chops. Beck traced Israel's story from the Balfour Declaration through to Harry Truman's business partnership with Eddie Jacobsen and how they insisted on paying off all their debts rather than go bankrupt. How Eddie persuaded President Truman as to meet with Chaim Weizmann and how Truman went on to defy the Arabists in the State Department by keeping his promise to vote for the Jewish state. Coming to the present day, Beck went on to expose the flotilla's organizers for who – and what – they truly were.
I was left asking myself: Why aren't we doing this for ourselves? Must we always rely on non-Jews to edit our narrative? And I thought the time had surely come for the Jewish people to have their own cable channel. I was therefore pleased to see this idea echoed some days later by Likud Minister for Diaspora Affairs Yuli Edelstein, who speculated about a possible Al-Judea channel.
I write these lines from a city doing its best to live up to the pejorative ascribed by Melanie Phillips in her book Londonistan. Brits were by far the largest European grouping on the Gaza flotilla and the quickest to take to the streets in rabid anti-Israel chanting. All this is fueled by slick Islamic propaganda piped into a vacuum of almost total ignorance about all things Jewish, other than the Holocaust.

Golden presents a compelling saga of poor but determined immigrants who fled pogroms and harsh conditions in their homelands for a better life in a land of opportunity.
It seems to us that while the Jewish entitlement to the land of Israel transcends the Holocaust, the Jewish experience during that tragic time is the most solid of foundations for these "national rights."
Too many self-styled civil rights activists seemed determined to force, by their relentless pressure, an indictment regardless of what an investigation might turn up.

Next month I am due to participate in a London debate on the question: Is it OK for Jews to criticize Israel? One of my opponents is a leader of the Peace Now movement who, in a previous debate about the UK's academic boycott, steered the discussion to his own army service (as an IDF spokesman, no less) and promptly branded Israeli border guards as "paramilitary thugs."
Just like an office fire alarm, the Gaza flotilla affair sent thousands of Jews all over the word into a well-practiced drill.
For American taxpayers, the devil is in the details of the new health care law. But for the Jewish people and the State of Israel the devil is in the comparison between Barack Obama's steamrollering of health care legislation and his developing Middle East policy.

It is hard to imagine a scene as joyous and religiously charged as Machpela on the Friday night of Parshat Chayei Sarah. Every year, many thousands of Jews from all over Israel, and hundreds more from Europe and America, flock to the tomb of our patriarchs, which Abraham purchased for Sarah's burial nearly 4,000 years ago.
The British government's ban on Moshe Feiglin from entering the UK is symptomatic of a deep and institutional prejudice against Israel. Feiglin, a Jewish Press columnist, is best known for running second to Benjamin Netanyahu in the last Likud leadership primary.
The throngs of tourists passing Big Ben are unaware of the tunnel beneath their feet, which connects the parliamentary committee rooms in Portcullis House to the British House of Commons. When the division bells ring, members of parliament sprint along the passage to cast their votes in the chamber. It was in one of those committee rooms last Thursday evening that a group of MPs met with foreign lawmakers to discuss boycott, divestment and the indictment of a sovereign nation with the arrest of its officials for breach of international law.
Did you hear the one about Nelson Mandela, the pope, Mother Teresa and the Jew? Turns out they are the only non-Americans ever to have received both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congres-sional Medal of Honor. The Jew? None other than our own icon of freedom, Natan Sharansky, the former refusenik and prisoner of conscience who earlier this month received his Medal of Freedom at the White House.

Very clean, comfortable sheets, good location, great common room and kitchen, additional fun activities are offered.
The room was a bit chilly for me.
Best hostel i've ever stayed at + free pasta! Thanks heaps!
Good price in rapport to quality and personal expect.
Very helpful receptionist: Since the hostel is rather big, he explained all different door codes on side, brought me to the room and made sure that bed and locker were okay.
The hostel rating is in relation too high for what I have seen (8 bed dorm): the beds are iron frames but not well fixed. So, whenever someone goes to bed or just changes her/his position it is really loud. Due to the close proximity (of all rooms on the ground floor where my dorm was), it was loud throughout the whole night; usually sleeping well but that was beyond...people coming with suitcases, rolling over the wooden floors (really loud), people in the central hall laughing, shouting all night...- And then: I arrived at 10pm and the kitchen got then; the cafe - which was said to offer tea and coffee (even for free) till 4am in the morning, had not staff and no facility either to get still something to drink like a hot tea or coffee as usually no problem in hostels. All in all, the facilities were - nice in their style, but used, old and not special at all. Compared to other hostels in Stockholm, - and I have seen quite some now, a 6.9 to 7.4 at ts best would be fairer, I think.
There are enough toilets & showers, they are for common use, of course, but the good thing is that there are several separate WC+shower rooms, so if you do not like public shower nudity - it is a good solution for you. Good location near Central Station.
We booked the room for 2 people - it was very small, just for 2-floor bed, chair & drawer. The beds were noisy & old. It was freezing cold in the room at nights, though it was autumn. And we could hear every sound behind the walls, which was not always pleasant. Clean sheets & towels are not included for free, so be ready to pay extra.
Nice staff - they even sent me a welcome mail after booking, perfect location in Normalm (5 min from Arlanda Express station - after arriving turn right and than left at the corner). Other guests were nice, free pasta and mac computers, cool design of the hostel and big lounge - all of that made my stay just perfect. Cant wait to come back to CBP.
sauna, facilities, and the mood in general
to leave
Great location. Free pasta. Nice cafe and internat.
Cleaning staff was rude. Staff did not put soap into the dispensers when I asked multiple times. Nasty.
location is great, private room is clean and cosy.
kitchen is very small, stove is broken. at night you definitely need ear plugs coz they play live music.
location reception area
The atmosphere is great to meet new people. The events hosted by them especially the cooking class dinner. The common areas are nicely decorated. There are Mac computers. The bed was comfortable and the bathrooms and showers always clean. And there was free pasta to cook your own meal.
My room had a window with a nice view but bad insulation so a bit of cold wind got through. Taking shoes off every time you enter the place in order to keep spaces clean.
-The location is very good.
- Have to pay extra for bed sheet.
The hostel was very clean and I think has potential to be good if you meet the right travelers there
Most of the staff was not friendly and sometimes even rude. I would consider only one staff member nice. It seems like the hostel has some strange rules and I think they maybe take some things too seriously. Breakfast is definitely NOT worth the money as it is limited to start and they make you pick only two small things. Also, this is not really the hostels fault but there was a kid in my room who was deathly ill and kept everyone up to the point where someone asked him if he could control his coughing. Not fun.
sauna was great, and very cheap to book privately super nice staff who gave us amazing recommendations This is def a great spot, search no further
The staff speaks fluent English. The location is great, not far from the Central. You can take the bus no 53 if you have 24h transportation ticket. It is a safe place to stay with the code to go in and code to your room, no need to carry the key.
We had to pay for bedsheet and the check-out time is at 10 am which is quite early if you are a late morning person like me.
Most everything.
Almost nothing.
Great internet everywhere. Great atmosphere to meet new people. Awesome sauna.
Nice, interactive, friendly and helpful staff who are always available to give you an advance or recommendation, particularly Michel and his great bike tour plenty of histories! Congratulation guys!
wifi is fast and great location
people hanging around at yard all night....
Everything.....location, lovely hostel, clean, comfortable......
No have
Good location in Stockholm city. I only slep there.but there where some young travelers which seemly spent some free time also in hostel facilities. Rooms,shower and toilets were clean. I had nice room mates. So no problems to sleep.
Our stay was only brief but it seemed like a pretty good place for a young traveller wanting to meet people

Home » Articles » Rey Mysterio injury concern
Word broke out this week that Rey Mysterio was injured during the Smackdown taping, but there has not been a lot of information being relayed backstage to other people in WWE. The medical personnel has yet to determine how severe this latest injury is. The company was trying to preserve him for a Wrestlemania 30 match.
February 14, 2014
As many of you are already aware, Rey Mysterio was backstage last night at Monday Night Raw. He reportedly met with Vince McMahon about his future in WWE and his contract situation. No word yet on how that went, but the masked performer took a flight from Buffalo to San Diego this morning, meaning that he will not be working the Smackdown taping today in New York. He is also unlikely to head to England with the crew tomorrow as well.
November 4, 2014
Some potentially interest news coming out of WWE this week is that Rey Mysterio might have actually allowed his contract with the company to expire. The former world heavyweight champion hopped on a plane yesterday afternoon with his family to Hawaii for a little vacation. He was not on Monday Night Raw, and he is not expected at Smackdown.
April 15, 2014
Since the masked performer has yet to put his signature on a brand new contract, WWE has been purposely downplaying his role on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. However, management does indeed want to keep Rey Mysterio around for at least another year, as they feel that he still has some merchandise value. Plus, he is already involved in the Flintstones movie.
March 19, 2014
While many have been speculating his possible departure from the company in a few weeks, Rey Mysterio added even more fuel to the fire this week with his absence from Monday Night Raw and the Smackdown taping on the following night. His spot at Wrestlemania 30 has not been finalized, and it appears that management might not give him one after all.
March 5, 2014
Since he tweaked up his knee during the Smackdown taping last week, WWE decided to give Rey Mysterio some time off, as the masked performer did not work either of the live event in Las Vegas or Phoenix this weekend. He was replaced by Daniel Bryan in the six man tag team match against Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose.
February 17, 2014
After months of being used as filler in the tag team division, it looks like Jack Swagger is going to receive a bit of a push in singles again. After defeating Kofi Kingston, Mark Henry and Rey Mysterio on Smackdown, he has earned himself a shot at the WWE IC title. It has also now been revealed that the match will take place at Elimination Chamber 2014.
February 15, 2014
Word broke out this week that Rey Mysterio was injured during the Smackdown taping, but there has not been a lot of information being relayed backstage to other people in WWE. The medical personnel has yet to determine how severe this latest injury is. The company was trying to preserve him for a Wrestlemania 30 match.
February 14, 2014
There are some concerns within WWE right now about Rey Mysterio, as the masked performer might have possibly been injured during the Smackdown taping on Tuesday. He worked a fatal four way match against Jack Swagger, Mark Henry and Kofi Kingston. He landed wrong in the ring and had to roll outside to the floor to grab his knee.
February 13, 2014
In a rather interesting move during the Smackdown taping, WWE did a number one contender's match to determine a new challenger for Big E Langston and the Intercontinental Championship. Rey Mysterio, Mark Henry and Kofi Kingston were involved, but Jack Swagger was the one that ended up winning the match.
February 12, 2014
Since he has voiced his displeasure to those backstage, WWE has been attempting to appease Alberto Del Rio a bit. Since the start of 2014, the former world heavyweight champion has been given eight televised victories. His only losses came against Rey Mysterio on Smackdown and at Royal Rumble 2014.
February 7, 2014
After limping in front of fans and backstage at Monday Night Raw, Rey Mysterio was reportedly fine when he worked the Smackdown taping on Tuesday night.
November 20, 2013
For the longest time now, Smackdown has been considered a show that WWE fans can miss and not skip a beat with the character development and story lines. Vince McMahon is hoping to change that. Reports have surfaced that he has instructed his staff to put more emphasis on the show. Major story line developments will start taking place on the show. There should also be bigger matches on there as well.
November 27, 2014
The always busy Chris Jericho is packing his bags and traveling over the Atlantic Ocean soon, as he will be joining WWE on their tour of Europe. The company desperately needed the star power to draw in audiences, and the former world heavyweight champion saw an opportunity to promote his brand new book in a couple of foreign markets. No word yet on whether or not Jericho will be appearing on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown, though.
November 9, 2014
In yet another example of how hard the guy works, John Cena is backstage at the Smackdown taping today. That is noteworthy because he is scheduled to work a live event in London tomorrow. WWE generally calls upon Cena whenever they need to give Smackdown a boost. However, it is strange that they would call on him this week since he is very much needed on that tour of Europe.
November 4, 2014
Rumors are floating around that Randy Orton suffered a serious injury during the handicap street fight tag team match on Monday Night Raw. It took place early in the match when Dean Ambrose dove out of the ring and on to the heels. Orton reportedly told the trainer that the ruptured disc in his back was messed up. No word yet on whether or not he can work Hell in a Cell 2014, but as a precaution, WWE kept Orton from working Smackdown this week.
October 22, 2014
When news broke that Justin Roberts had been given a release by WWE, fans naturally speculated as to who would replace him in the role. Initially, the belief was that Lilian Garcia would be remaining on Smackdown because it suits her schedule more, but it has now been revealed that she will be making a return to Monday Night Raw. Some are saying that the move will be temporary until WWE can find someone who can fill the position permanently.
October 20, 2014
Now that Justin Roberts has been given a release by WWE, fans are speculating as to who will replace him as the announcer for Monday Night Raw. Lilian Garcia is said to be ruled out because the Smackdown schedule works much better for her pursuit of music. Byron Saxton is just the backup for now. Brandi Rhodes and JoJo Offerman are the two primary candidates for the role.
October 16, 2014
In the past, Vickie Guerrero was receptive towards a potential return to WWE some day, but her tone has definitely changed since starting a new career. Guerrero was recently contacted by the company to make an appearance on the special episode of Smackdown that aired this week. She rejected WWE and stated that it was time for her to move on with her life. John Laurinaitis and Theodore Long worked the segment instead.
October 11, 2014
As many of you already know, Edge recently made a cameo appearance via video on Monday Night Raw to promote the Smackdown anniversary. Word going around is that Christian played a heavy part in recruiting and convince Edge to make the appearance. Since retiring from the ring, Edge has distanced himself greatly from WWE, only making a couple of appearances.
October 11, 2014
Even though he is now off doing his music thing, Chris Jericho has agreed to help WWE out on their upcoming tour of Europe. Management does not have a lot of top level talent on the active roster nowadays, and Jericho still is enough of a draw to overseas fans. He might be making a couple of appearances on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown before taking off again.
October 9, 2014
Even though he is one of the most popular and entertaining performers, WWE is planning on keeping Paul Heyman off of Monday Night Raw and Smackdown until at least January. The belief is that management does not want to draw attention to the fact that their world heavyweight champion is not around for television shows. Lesnar and Heyman should be back in time to promote Royal Rumble 2015.
October 9, 2014
If you are a big fan of Edge and Christian, then you might want to tune into Monday Night Raw this week. WWE revealed earlier today through Twitter that the two of them have just arrived. A picture was also posted of the former tag team champions getting out of a vehicle. No word yet on where they are, but there is a chance that they could appear on television tonight to promote the Smackdown week.
October 6, 2014
There were some speculations from online wrestling fans that Bray Wyatt had some sort of injury since he has not been utilized much on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown as much recently. However, the truth is that he is just fine. Wyatt continues to work matches on a regular basis during WWE live events. Management seems to be purposely not using him much on television.
October 4, 2014
Yesterday, it was revealed that a couple of the WWE NXT performers have been booked for upcoming episodes of Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. Some further details have now been reported. Sami Zayn and Tyler Breeze are only booked for a couple of weeks, while Adrian Neville, who is currently the heavyweight champion in developmental, is scheduled until the end of October.
September 14, 2014
During a recent interview, Sami Zayn revealed that Antonio Cesaro actually made the request to management to go down to WWE NXT and work there. Zayn explained that the motive behind the move was to let certain people backstage see what he was capable of since it is harder to get the spotlight on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. According to Zayn, Triple H was really impressed with what he saw in Cesaro.
September 11, 2014
While there are some concerns backstage about going up against the NFL, the move to Thursday for Smackdown is being viewed as a good thing for WWE. Vince McMahon and company been wanting to make the switch for quite some time now, as Friday nights are really difficult to draw because a lot of their targeted demographics is out of the house.
August 30, 2014
During the meeting with Rey Mysterio last week, it was made very clear that Vince McMahon was in charge of the situation. He is the one that desperately wants the popular masked performer back in the ring, even though Mysterio has made it clear that he does not want to make a return. McMahon reportedly pushed the former world heavyweight champion to return on a full time schedule, even though Mysterio does not feel that his body can hold up for that.
November 13, 2014
After months of silence between the two sides, Rey Mysterio and WWE got together recently backstage to discuss the contract situation that has been lingering for a bit. Reports are surfacing that Mysterio essentially told management that he was no longer interested whatsoever in working with the company and wishes to move on to other things. WWE is still hoping that the former world heavyweight champion will change his mind, as they really need the drawing power in Mexico.
November 11, 2014
A resolution could be near for the backstage heat between Rey Mysterio and WWE. Reports have surfaced that the masked performer is going to be backstage at Monday Night Raw in Buffalo tonight. No word yet on why he is there, but there are plenty of speculations. A few feel that he is going to make a return to television, while many believe that he is just there to discuss his contract with officials.
November 3, 2014
As many fans already know, Rey Mysterio is still under contract to WWE, which means that he cannot work elsewhere during the duration of the deal. The masked superstar wants to return to Mexico and wrestle for AAA. Many were under the belief that he was going to wait for his current deal with WWE to expire, but there are now talks that the company could extend his deal again next year and force him to remain on the sidelines.
October 22, 2014
While the backstage heat between the two sides remains at a pretty high level, it does not appear that WWE will be giving a release to Rey Mysterio any time soon. Management has started to accept that the former world heavyweight champion will not be returning to work anytime soon, but they will not let him out of his contract to help another promotion out. WWE would rather just keep him on the sidelines for the time being, especially since Mysterio has reportedly stopped cashing in their checks.
October 15, 2014
The backstage heat between Rey Mysterio and WWE continues to grow. The latest incident to add fuel to the fire took place recently when the popular masked performer showed up backstage at a Lucha Underground event, which is being funded by AAA. Photos of the visit surfaced on social media, but they were quickly taken down, in order to avoid legal ramifications for Mysterio.
October 9, 2014
The relationship between WWE and Rey Mysterio might be worse than what a lot of us already thought. Reports have surfaced that the company and the popular masked performer are not communicating with one another nowadays. Many were under the belief that a discussion would be had when Mysterio made a taped appearance at TripleMania for AAA. Apparently, WWE is letting that issue slide for the time being, as lawyers have yet to get involved.
August 28, 2014
While it appears that he is still under contract to WWE, it does not seem like the company is going to be bringing Rey Mysterio back to television, even after his hand injury heals. The two sides are greatly at odds right now, and it seems like management is more concerned about preventing him from going to another company at this point. A reconciliation seems unlikely right now.
August 24, 2014
There were some talks backstage in WWE of bringing in Rey Mysterio to help do promotions for Summerslam 2014. He lives three hours away in San Diego and is especially popular in southern California. However, that never happened. The shows how bad the relationship is between the two sides, as Mysterio reportedly wants to be free of his contract with the company.
August 21, 2014
When Rey Mysterio decided to make a video appearance at TripleMania for AAA, the belief was that he was doing it as a shot at WWE. Rumors have surfaced that he is quite upset with the company in regards to his contract situation. Reports are now surfacing that Mysterio had a handshake agreement with Triple H that would have enabled him to walk away from the company. However, Vince McMahon reportedly decided to overrule that and force to remain under contract to WWE for another year.
August 20, 2014
Everyone in the industry now knows that Alberto Del Rio and Rey Mysterio made appearances for AAA at the TripleMania pay per view. The belief is that WWE will be pursuing legal actions against the promotion, as management has been very quiet backstage about the incident. That has led many to believe that lawyers have advised them not to discuss the situation.
August 19, 2014
When TripleMania ended, fans in attendance were treated to a video of Rey Mysterio. The masked legend informed the audience that he would be back in AAA very soon. Unfortunately, though, part of that video was accidentally aired to people who purchased the pay per view. Since that happened, there is now a chance that WWE could pursue legal actions against the promotion.
August 18, 2014
While the company was hoping that the legendary masked performer would make an appearance at TripleMania on Sunday, AAA is reportedly backing away from Rey Mysterio. The promotion does not want to be involved in a contract tampering lawsuit with WWE. As of right now, there is a bit of a dispute between Mysterio and Vince McMahon on their deal. Until that is cleared, AAA will not be contacting Mysterio.
August 16, 2014
Alberto Del Rio might not be the only familiar WWE face to make an appearance at TripleMania this upcoming Sunday night. Word has it that Rey Mysterio has accepted the invitation from AAA to be at the biggest wrestling pay per view in Mexico this weekend. If the masked performer shows up, then that means that his contract issues with Vince McMahon are still lingering.
August 14, 2014
A couple of months ago, Rey Mysterio was under the belief that his tenure with WWE was over when his contract expired. However, the company enacted a clause in the deal that enabled them to extend the partnership because the masked performer missed quite a bit of dates. Apparently, he is not too happy about that, as reports have surfaced that Mysterio has stopped cashing his checks in what seems to be an attempt to get out of the deal.

Strangling her meddling cousin is now at the top of Margie's to-do list.

Hello Mr. Hall Senior,
I am a 50 year old German Triathlete who loves swimming and I want to congratulate you for the best swimming resource I found all around the web. Your explanations and videos are highly understandable and based on great knowledge and years of competitive swimming and practical coaching experience. I learned swimming by self-teaching me and sometimes I'm sad that in my early years I had no experienced coaching and no resources at all to have a serious look at the theory of swimming fast. And even today there is so much junk information for swimming all around the planet, that in worst case you get wrong advices and work completely the wrong way, or waste hours for little gains (f.e. Total Immersion, which completely ignores the absolutely vital high elbow pull!) Hope you continue your articles on the Race Club Website,
All the best,
Henric Birrong

its been my opinion for a
its been my opinion for a while that nat rights dont exist, but that if they did, animals would have them too.
there is no valid argument against it that couldnt also apply to humans.
the reality of course is animals have no rights because they cannot assert or defend their rights in an organized political way. their rights extend exactly as far as their power to defend their physical liberty.
the same thing applies to people. their rights extend exactly insofar as their power to defend them, either individually or in organized groups.
but these arent natural rights, they are not part of ethics. they are just facts of political power applied to the end of protecting asserted claims.
any ethical claim that one "must" respect the rights of others for moral, rather than practical reasons, would apply to all living things. just because animals are stupid, or can't follow laws, is no argument against their having ethics based rights. there are plenty of stupid people running around who can't follow laws either. they aren't without rights according to an ethical or morally based claim of rights.
the easiest way out of this intellectual morass is to chuck the premise, recognize the absence of any natural rights, and find arguments that actually correspond w/ reality.

With 13 layer construction structures, the Potala Palace is a grand castlestyle building team. The whole building covers an area of over 100,000 square meters, and contains 1000s of areas, and people can overlook it dozens of miles away, hence, it turns into a crucial symbol of Lhasa. Whenever there are festivals, the structure is full of buddhists who believe in Tibetan Buddhism, so it's wellknown Buddhist shrine. In 1961, the Potala Palace was officially ratified by the State Council as one of the first batch of national vital cultural relics protection units. In 1994, it had been inscribed on the listing of World Cultural History. And Potala Palace Little Known Hints For Productive Journeys became the first 5A-level picturesque spots in Tibet in 2013.
The Potala Palace is well-known as the "Pearl of the roof of the world". This is a hint of Lhasa as well as QinghaiTibet plateau
, and also Tibetan program center before. As the world's highest and most magnificent palace, it collects tons of historic relics and handcrafts, but also preciously retains the unique social heritage of the snow covered plateau. The Potala Palace is world-renowned for its palaces layout, civil engineering, metal smelting, picture, sculpture, and so on, which embodies the excellent accomplishments in exceptional craftsmanship and Tibatan architectural art from Tibetans, in addition to Han Chinese, Mongolians and Manchus. The Potala Palace was chosen to the World Heritage Listing in December, 1994.
Whether you are traveling within america or in a foreign state, always be sure the taxi-cabs you use are qualified with the town. There's usually a sticker visible from the back seat of the vehicle.

The Potala Palace wasn't constructed greatly in the first phase, but nonetheless, it slowly enlarged after. A couple of generations of Dalai Lama also successively participated within the expansion and design of the palace, which cost enormous absolutely. Till 1936, the Potala Palace finally took shape once the 13th Dalai Lama ended buliding his stupa corridor. Till then, it became a real multi storey building that contained stupa places, buddhist temples and palaces. Sometimes this building is more like a mysterious symbol, which attracts rather many people to the love structure, and to Tibet ever since Tubo period resolutely.

Prior to becoming a star in professional wrestling, Ahmed Johnson, whose real name is Anthony Norris, played middle linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys for two seasons (1990 and 1991). He wasn't a big star, nor did he receive a lot of playing time, so he's not remembered by too many NFL fans.

The madness of Derby cruising: There are two sides to the story — and the truth's somewhere in the middle
BY PHILLIP BAILEYBecause I am young, black and outspoken, people often ask me about Derby cruising. That doesn't surprise me, given cruising's relationship to hip-hop culture, which, of course, means black.
Rumor & Innuendo: Rumblings From the World of Sports
As The Boss sayeth (that would be Bruce from N.J., not Stemle from the sunnyside): "It's hard to be a saint in the city."It is that time of year again, you know. When LEO's resident "turf experts" regale you with speed ratings and Dosage indexes and three-furlong clockings. Then Mr. Doolittle and maybe Mr. Reed — acclaimed and award-winning writers both, viz a viz the Sport of Kings — whittle the upcoming 20 horse Derby field down to, oh, say five or six possible winners.
That was Giacomo. This is Barbaro
Tell you one horse that won't win the Derby — Giacomo.Well, Giacomo did win the 2005 Kentucky Derby, but even if he could be in it again this year, he wouldn't win. Last year's Derby was a great place for 50-1 shots. This year's isn't.
Get me rewrite: Some 'celebs' soak up Derby largess like a sponge
I've pored over the list of celebrities — and I use that term loosely — who will attend this year's Derby and, frankly, I'm underwhelmed. Sorry, folks, but it's definitely the B list. It's heavy on has-beens, wannabes and others who dwell on Hollywood's fringe. Mostly, it's the same freeloaders who show up every year to suck up our hospitality but leave without buying so much as a country-ham sandwich, much less a race horse.
Golden Boy bronzed: New downtown statue memorializes Paul Hornung
As a player and playboy at Notre Dame and with the Green Bay Packers of the NFL, Paul Hornung sometimes seemed larger than life. Now he really is. At least, the new bronze statue honoring him will be. The official unveiling will be at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 2, outside Slugger Field at the corner of Witherspoon and Preston.
ACLU eyes racial profiling
The ACLU of Kentucky is neutral on the issue of Derby cruising, but the civil rights organization is running a public education campaign to teach the community about racial profiling as it relates to cruising, particularly given that Louisville Metro Police plan to enforce ordinances this weekend that are not normally enforced.
The Official LEO Derby Survival Tout Sheet:
LEO: Giving Louisville the Finger since 1990When it comes to wagering, most Derby visitors think of the card at Churchill Downs as the main event. But there are lots of other events worth handicapping at Derby time. For instance, which celebrity is most likely to bare his ass? How many puddles of vomit will you have to sidestep during Derby Week? And when will the exact moment come when you'll run screaming from the whole Derby experience, crawl into the fetal position and weep softly into your Early Times Gato Del Sol decanter? As usual, LEO comes to your rescue. Just use our handy LEO Tout Sheet, and you're sure to survive the most outrageous moments of Kentucky Derby 132.
There's first, and there's worst: You might pick the winner. Can you say which horses will bring up the rear?
When you get tired of the relentless Kentucky Derby hype and want to have a little fun, sit down with a couple of your friends and try to pick the horse that will finish last on Saturday at Churchill Downs. Understand, this is different than trying to pick the worst horse in the field. Sometimes, due to the vagaries of racing luck, the last-place Derby horse is just the one that had the worst trip.
The great and powerful Host: Who's the man behind the Arena curtain?
Late on the afternoon of April 19, Arena Authority Chairman W. James Host, accompanied by five suits with big titles, appeared before the finance committee of the Louisville Metro Council to make the case for building a downtown arena at the LG&E site instead of the old Water Company site.
Rumor & Innuendo: Rumblings from the World of Sports
Wha happened? Back when they were just amateurs, playing hoops for the sheer love of the game and dear ol' alma mammy, weren't Dwyane Wade and Reece Gaines about the same? Well, the former Card looks three and done. Three NBA teams in three years and not much of a future in the league. He's totaled 123 points for his career. Which is a mere 4,762 less than his former Marquette rival. Go figure.

Memorandum submitted to District Collector
Auto-rickshaw drivers have appealed to the District Collector to initiate measures for withdrawal of the hike in third party insurance for their vehicles.
In a memorandum submitted to the District Collector on Tuesday, Visakhapatnam District Auto-rickshaw Karmika Sangham general secretary Sk. Rahiman said that thousands of drivers in the district were dependent on autorickshaws for a livelihood.
They were contributing thousands of rupees every year to the Central and State governments in the form of taxes.
Untold hardship
The steep hike in the prices of petrol and diesel was already causing untold hardship to auto drivers.
They were also being made to cough up hefty amounts as fines by the RTA and the police authorities even in the name of implementation of traffic guidelines.
Mr. Rahiman noted that the third party insurance which was Rs.316 was hiked to Rs.1,740 in the past. It was again increased to Rs.2,740 on Monday.
Cost of living
This would cause untold misery to auto-rickshaw drivers who were already facing problems due to lack of adequate returns and the growing cost of meeting the needs of their family members. Many drivers had purchased three-wheelers by availing of loans from private financial institutions.
Other demands
The other demands of the sangham include: provision of parking lots in all areas by the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) and bringing out legislation for provision of PF and ESI to auto drivers.
The other signatories of the memorandum submitted to District Collector include sangham treasurer K. Simhadri, working president M. Chittibabu and honorary president M. Ananda Rao.

Diane Sawyer Signs Off From 'World News'
The anchor, who has sat at the desk for five years, signed off Wednesday with a speech in which she expressed gratitude.
The anchor, who has sat at the desk for five years, signed off Wednesday with a speech in which she expressed gratitude.
The crash site of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 may have been compromised by pro-Russian rebels, but journalists are also being criticised for touching victims' belongings.
ABC's Diane Sawyer committed an egregious error Wednesday night during her introduction of an ABC World News segment on the latest from Israel and the Gaza Strip. Sawyer, in her waning months as host as the flagship evening news program, misidentified a Palestinian family as Israeli — a massive mistake in a conflict where divisions run deep.
Now a top-five referrer to the websites of many a publisher, as well as a valuable feedback tool, Facebook has become an essential part of the content and audience development strategies of most media organizations. To capitalize on the potential of Facebook and other user-heavy social networks, publishers have hired community managers and digital strategists to optimize traffic and engagement on those platforms.
Producers are working around the clock ahead of the Royal Wedding live broadcast, which is set to begin at 4 a.m. ET on most stations. But they aren't just prepping TV coverage; they're also working to extend their broadcasts and engage users across as many channels as possible. With the proliferation of devices for media consumption -- think laptops, tablets and smartphones, in addition to TV sets -- viewers are no longer consuming media on a single platform.

I had the good fortune to spend a couple of weeks in Iceland this fall and was thrilled by the spectacular color in the landscape. It was a great JKPW workshop with many opportunities to photograph waterfalls, glacial ice, rainbows and the amazing northern lights. It's cloudy and rainy quite often in Iceland but we had several clear nights to see the incredible display in the sky.
The image above was taken at sunrise on the southern coast of Iceland, near the mouth of the Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon where chunks of ice float out into the Atlantic and wash up on the black sand beach.
This was my first opportunity to view the northern lights and they far, far exceeded my expectations. It was spell-binding to watch them light up the sky, transform into different shapes and intensities…you could not turn your gaze away from them.
The northern lights weren't the only light show available as we spotted 14 rainbows during the trip. This rainbow hovers over a small portion of the Vatnajökull glacier, the largest glacier in Europe.
The waterfall below is in the Þingvellir National Park and is called Öxarárfoss. Just one of the hundreds of waterfalls you can see throughout the landscape of Iceland.
More images from the trip are located here. If you are interested in seeing this nature paradise with your own eyes, the next JKPW workshop in Iceland will be Sept. 12-10, 2015.
