Getting The Photography Right On Your Special Day

By Ray Wong

The wedding couple are the two most important people on a wedding day. To get some excellent portraits, the photographer should seclude the wedding couple from the celebration for a while to capture the intimate moments after the ceremony. This will give the wedding couple some time away from the wedding as well.

The portrait session will give the photographer enough time to spend with the wedding couple to capture the pictures. On the wedding day it doesn't always happen because it is rare to have time on the actual day of the wedding. The time taken for pictures can well vary from an hour to no time at all. It can take up to an hour for the photographer to take the pictures.

When is the best time to take aside the bride and groom for some quality time with the photographer?

Since the couple will still look fresh, most photographers believe that the window before the reception is suitable for the portraits.

Award winning photographer Bradley Hanson says that sometimes the bride and the groom would want to start the portrait session even before the ceremony. He generally starts by photographing the bride getting ready in such events.

Right after the newly-weds have exchanged vows is a great time for some photographers to have their portraits done, since they are still fill with all of the emotions.

The couple should set aside some time with the photographer so the perfect actual day photo shoot will be flawless. They should find ways to politely lose the relatives and guests to acquire the beautiful moments, so that they can be cherished for a lifetime.

A good portrait session on the actual day can be ruined by too many people trying to photograph the newly-weds. As a result of this, most photographers choose to have the couple alone for the shoot so that it is not disturbed by anyone.

According to award winning photographer Shawna Herring, most newly-weds start feeling uncomfortable before the camera when the portrait session is about to start. To help the couple forget the camera is there, the experienced photographer will try talking to the couple about things other then the portrait shoot.

Sometimes people will choose to go to a different location the day before the wedding to have the photo shoot done. This really helps loosen up the bride and groom since it helps build a comfortable relationship with the photographer. In a short time, the couple may even forget the existence of the camera.

It is at times impossible to achieve the perfect alone time with the photographer due to a variety of reasons. Working together with the bride and groom will help to achieve the creative portrait session.

An Introduction To CFL Canadian Football For The NFL Fan

By Ross Everett

While football in the United States is associated with crisp autumn days and cool nights, in Canada professional football begins in the summer time. While NFL training camps won't open until mid-summer by then the Canadian Football League (CFL) will be well into their regular season schedule.

Most Americans dont realize that the CFL has a lengthy and storied history. The league itself has been around since'30, and the Canadian Football championship--known as the Grey Cup--has been contended since'09. More recently, American fans are aware that a number of NFL stars got their start in the CFL including Doug Flutie, Jim Kelly, and Jeff Garcia.

While the CFL plays football at the highest professional level of competition outside of the NFL, there are a few differences in the game:

At the most basic level, the football itself is bigger than the NFL ball. It is longer and fatter than the NFL ball. The CFL goal posts are on the goal line, while the NFLs are on the end line at the back of the endzone. The CFL field is also longer (110 yards) and wider (65 yards vs. the NFLs 53.5 yards), and the CFL end zones are 20 yards deep as opposed to 10 yards in the NFL.

CFL teams are allowed an extra offensive player (a wide receiver), and on defense they're allowed an extra defensive back. This means that 12 players can be on the field at one time as opposed to 11 in the NFL. CFL football also differs in that teams only have three downs to gain ten yards, as opposed to four in US football. The phrase "two and out" is as commonplace in CFL football as is "three and out" in the US game.

A major difference in the scoring is the 'single' which awards CFL teams one point for a kick--usually a punt or missed field goal--that lands in the end zone. This will frequently produce partial game scores of 1-0 or 1-1 that are impossible in the US game.

Of all the rule differences between the NFL and CFL the one that has the most significance on the game isnt enforced on the field; its enforced in the GMs office. Canadians are big on laws and rules to protect their national identity--thats why their TV and radio stations are required to devote a certain percentage of their airplay to Canadian content. That has led to a number of Canadian-only media stars both good (The Tragically Hip, Sloan) and bad (Avril Lavigne, early 90s white rapper Snow). The CFL has a similar rule which requires that' of the 40 players on a roster must be Canadian born. This keeps the CFL from becoming a de facto NFL developmental league, and helps maintain its unique identity.

Despite the rule differences that suggest a higher scoring, more wide open style of play than in the NFL it really doesn't work out that way. Most games end up with a final score in the 40's and have a similar pace to their NFL counterparts. There may be a few individual rule differences, but a strong rushing game and defense are tickets to success in the CFL as in the NFL.

Furthermore, the parity that you see in the NFL where on any given Sunday any team can beat any other team is magnified in the CFL. The primary reason is the rules mandating Canadian native players. I dont think itll offend any Canadians if I suggest that football is played at a higher level in American high schools and colleges. That means that at least 50% of each team is of essentially equal level of talents. Now that may be a bit of an oversimplification"certainly there are differing levels of talent among Canadian players"but the Canadian native rules do serve to further codify the inherent tendency toward parity that you see in most professional sports.

The CFL isn't in a financial position to draw the top level US players away from the NFL or, in most cases, even a NFL practice or developmental squad. While some US players are uniquely suited to the CFL style of play, most of the US players that end up there are of a similar talent level as to that seen in Arena Football.

The bottom line is that despite the rule differences and personal quotas the CFL game is still football and can be enjoyed the same way. Once you understand the unique attributes of the Canadian game youll start to enjoy it almost as much as the NFL.

You wont see CFL news on ESPN, since theyre more interested in featuring spelling bees and lumberjack competitions and letting their personalities like Stuart Scott show how clever they are than covering sports. The good news is that the CFL receives extensive coverage in the Canadian press and all you need to do is visit a couple of websites to stay up to date. Each CFL city has their own sports media, and most have pretty good websites. The best one stop shopping can be found at the leagues own and Slam! Sports, which is roughly the Canadian equivalent of ESPNs website and has extensive CFL news, opinions and statistics.

It is possible to see locations here on the earth or you can choose to view other planets or places in outer space. You can view whats going on in the present day or you can go backward or forward in time.

Everybody is capable of accomplishing remote viewing, but some people seem to have an extraordinary talent or gift for doing it.

Arena Football League To Fold, Will Declare Bankruptcy

By Ross Everett

After canceling their 2009 season, the Arena Football League has shut down entirely and appears headed for bankruptcy. Earlier this week, the league office released a short statement indicated that it had ceased operations because owners were "unable to reach any consensus on restructuring the league over the past eight months." The leagues statement continued that there are no other viable options available to the league right now."

Even before the decision was made to cancel the 2009 season this past December, it had been a tumultuous off-season for the Arena Football League. It began with the resignation of long time AFL commissioner David Baker just two days before the Arena Bowl championship game. Though Baker put a positive spin on his resignation saying that he felt it was time, the timing was curious. Imagine the symbolic weight of the gesture were David Stern to resign right before the NBA finals, or Roger Goodell to step down before the Superbowl"even though Baker insisted that it the decision was strictly for personal reasons it doesnt exactly send a positive signal about the stability of the league.

In October, the owner of the New Orleans VooDoo announced that the team would cease operations"despite being one of the league leaders in attendance. In announcing that the team would fold, owner Tom Benson (who also owns the NFL Saints) suggested that the end of the five year old franchise was in no way an indictment of the New Orleans market.

At that point, uncertainty began to reign over the leagues future. A dispersal draft to reassign the VooDoo personnel was scheduled and postponed several times amid assurances from the AFL office that rumors of financial instability were unfounded.

The inability to get any consensus on a business model for the league reportedly served as the final nail in the AFLs coffin. A major problem was skyrocketing player salaries, and some sort of compensation system tied to team revenues was a necessity. That agreement was reached with the players, but a bigger schism was left between several factions of owners"primarily drawn along lines of overall wealth.

Despite the demise of the Arena Football League, it wont be the end of the road for the twenty two year old sport. known as The 50 yard indoor war . Arena Football lives on in the AF2 league which, ironically, was originally started as something of a developmental organization for the AFL. The league plays in smaller markets and has a more realistic salary structure. A number of current AFL players"and possibly a couple of AFL franchises"could end up in AF2.

Why Is Chakra Meditation So Important?

By Gillian Tamzeen

Present in the body of every human being, the chakras are the focal points for our energy. We may or may not be aware of them, but our chakras have an effect on our lives, whether for good (as when they are in alignment) or when they hold us back from getting the most out of our lives (such as when they are out of alignment or blocked).

Chakra means energy in the Sanksrit language and the idea of chakras has been handed down from the Hindu religion. However, energy doesn't know or care about religion; it is a force of nature which passes through us all. The path with this energy takes through our bodies and into (or out of) our personal energy field is the chakras.

Chakras which are correctly aligned have a wealth of benefits for the mind, body and the spirit, which is why chakra meditation is such a good thing to learn. You will be able to perform chakra meditation if you know where your chakras are and what each chakra does.

Your chakras are sited in vital areas such as your heart and your head. The organs which are in the area of these chakras are used to control the energy of the chakra and are as such directly affected by their chakra. There are seven chakras in the human body.

Your first chakra is call the Root Chakra and sits at the base of your spine. Governed by this chakra are your constitution and general health. This chakra is representative of our physical bodies and its relation between the physical and mental aspects of human nature. Each chakra has a color and red is the color of the Root Chakra.

In the lower abdomen is out second chakra, the Navel Chakra. Representing our physical drives toward love, pleasure and sex, as well as giving and receiving, this chakra is where you will feel generosity, harmony and selflessness, as well as some acts of creativity. The color of this chakra is orange.

Next we have our Solar Plexus Chakra which is found just below our chest. This chakra is where our will and our sense of change or transformation is located. Our concentration and control of our own personal energies stem from this chakra. Self control and our discipline of our ego is also found here. The color for this chakra is yellow.

Fourth is the Heart Chakra, located at the very center of our chests. Unsurprisingly, this chakra represents our feelings of love, understanding and compassion. The Heart Chakra governs love which is beyond the physical. The color if this chakra is green.

The next chakra is the Throat Chakra which can be found in the throat between the chin and the top part of the sternum. This chakra is tied to our ability to communicate. This chakra helps us realize that kindness, honesty, wisdom, truth and knowledge can all be conveyed with thoughtful speech. The color of this chakra is sky blue.

The chakra that is located in our forehead above our eyes is the Brow Chakra. This is commonly referred to as the third eye. Our perception of insight, imagination, intuition and clairvoyance stem from this chakra. The ability to focus on your realization of your own soul is found in this chakra. Divine wisdom and peace of mind is also found here. The color for the Brow Chakra is indigo.

The seventh and final chakra is the Crown Chakra, located at the top of the head. This is the chakra which directly relates to the mind and spirit. The Crown Chakra is what allows us to examine our own consciousness and our place in the universe. The higher self is related to the Crown Chakra, whose color is violet.

If you know the function and the location of each of your chakras, you will be able to practice chakra meditation more effectively. You can use meditations which work on individual chakras, or ones which align them as a whole.

Madame Butterfly, the Betrayal: A Review of the Opera

By Jeff Bridges

Madame Butterfly is a popular opera that is written by Giacomo Puccini. You will want to bring your opera glasses to this opera. We are about to show you why.

The Madame Butterfly opera begins with a United States Naval Officer, one of the main characters named Pinkerton and a Japanese Marriage Broker named Goro. Pinkerton and Goro are looking at a little house with a gorgeous view from the top of a hill overlooking the bay. Pinkerton wants to have the house home for 999 years. His 999 years include being able to cancel the housing agreement.

As the Opera continues, we find that the wedding of Madame Butterfly and the Officer is soon to take place. Many of Butterfly's family will be flying in to attend the wedding, with one exception. Butterfly's uncle will not be attending as he is a priest.

Although Pinkerton is marrying Butterfly, his goal is to get the love of as many beautiful women as possible. This is the reason he wants to have the right to cancel the housing agreement each and every month. Soon you will want to put on your opera glasses to see the beautiful Butterfly.

Before you get to see Butterfly's beauty, one final part of the opera plays through. The American Consul, who is with Pinkerton, asks him if he loves Madame Butterfly. A yes will not come out of the mouth of Pinkerton, nor could it, for Pinkerton, is simply infatuated with Butterfly's innocence, beauty and charm. He does not love her. Pinkerton then begins to speak of one day having an American woman to wed.

We finally at this point see the beautiful and elegant Butterfly enters the stage. The wedding begins, and the beautiful Butterfly and uncommitted Pinkerton are wed. A party in honor of the event begins, again all members of the family are in attendance. All are enjoying the festivities when Butterfly's uncle, the priest breaks into the party. He condemns butter fly for her abandonment of her own religion to join her now husbands religion, and curses her. At this, the party breaks up leaving Butterfly weeping uncontrollably.

Time passes Pinkerton and Butterfly remain happily married. Butterfly on a daily basis nearly explodes with joy and love for her Pinkerton. Then one day Pinkerton finds that he has been deployed and must do a tour of duty. On the last morning he is with Butterfly he promises her that he will return with roses, when the robin builds his nest again.

The third act opens to see that three years have passed since Pinkerton left. Every day, Butterfly watches from her windows to see if Pinkerton's ship will come in. Butterfly has fallen even more in love with the missing man as the time has passed. One day, she sees a man walking up the path. She recognizes as the American Consul who is the friend of Pinkerton. She greets him, hoping for news from the love of her life. The truth of the matter is that Pinkerton has sent him to tell her that he has married another woman, and that he wont return. The news is given by the American guiltily.

Destroyed by the news left by Pinkerton's friend, Butterfly leaves the room weeping, only to return carrying Pinkerton's son that she has given birth to. Butterfly tells the American that Pinkerton could not leave his wife and son for another woman. After some convincing she succumbs to the fact that Pinkerton did not love her, and is not to return.

What happens next, you will have to find out for yourself, by attending Madame Butterfly. The music in this opera is delightful as it is majestic, the attention to detail, and beauty of the costumes is unforgettable. Make sure you bring your opera glasses so that you can enjoy this opera to the fullest.

NY Jets Rip Hapless Raiders

By Ross Everett

The New York Jets and rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez found a sure fire cure to their recent struggles-a game against the lowly Oakland Raiders. Sanchez passed for--3 yards and a touchdown, plus added a rushing touchdown as New York thumped Oakland 38-0 in the largest regular season shutout win in franchise history. The Jets improved their record to 4-3 while the Raiders dropped to 2-5.

NFL football betting enthusiasts who took the Jets as -6 road favorites had smooth sailing throughout the game for an easy pointspread cover. The Jets improved to 4-3 against the spread while the Raiders fell to 3-5 against the number. The 38 points scored went OVER the posted total of 34. Both teams have gone UNDER in four of seven games this season. Oakland failed to score a touchdown for the 15th game in the past four seasons.

It was such an effortless game that the only thing that Sanchez had to apologize for was surreptitiously eating a hot dog near the end of the contest:

"I want to apologize for that. I wasn't feeling very good and didn't eat much before the game, so I was feeling a little queasy. Toward the end of the game, I probably should have eaten one of those bars or something, but someone offered a hot dog, so I grabbed it and tried to be discreet about it, but obviously not discreet enough. So I shouldn't have done that, and it won't happen again."

The Jets capitalized on three early Raiders' turnovers and started two of their first three drives inside the five yardline. Sanchez praised the defense for making his job easy:

"It makes it so easy on the offense when your defense is playing like that. Hats off to them, they had a heck of a game to shut that team out. I don't care who we're playing, that's a big-time accomplishment for our team."

Jets' coach Rex Ryan was very pleased with Sanchez's performance:

"Sanchez was great. He was just smart with the football. I think sometimes he could have put the ball on a receiver, but he was making sure the ball wasn't intercepted. It was great to see him respond."

Raiders' defensive lineman Richard Seymour, who boldly predicted the team would make the playoffs despite their slow start, was singing a different tune after the rout:

"I don't think we could have beaten an Oakland high school team today."

Despite Russell's struggles, Oakland coach Tom Cable remains committed to him as the team's starter:

"I thought he was really out of sorts early in the game. I just did not feel like at that point he gave us the best chance to have the success we needed to have offensively and made the move. JaMarcus will continue to be our starter. There is no issue there."

The Raiders will try to bounce back this weekend in a big rivalry game on the road against the San Diego Chargers. They'll then enjoy a bye week before back to back home games against the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals. The Jets host Miami this Sunday. They'll also have a bye week to look forward to before returning to action at home on November 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

By Jim Livingston

There are many bodybuilding supplements today. Most common are proteins / protein powders and amino acids, mineral replacement products, prohormones, testosterone boosters. These supplements and taken by body builders, sports persons and people looking to maintain their health. They help with building muscle, to assist with fat loss, improving sports performance and for general well being.

But do you really need supplements to gain muscles fast?

In most cases the answer is Yes. Supplements are necessary if you want gain bigger muscles faster or improve you health and fitness.

This is because various supplements have their own benefits and they work together complementing each other to support muscle mass gain. You will probably not be getting enough of them through your normal meals and that is the primary reason why you need supplementation.

Which supplements to take:

1. Protein Supplements: the most important for muscle growth

Protein builds muscle. It is the common supplement that every bodybuilder uses. You need up to 1 gram of protein for every pound of your bodyweight per day for rapid muscles growth. This is a lot of protein, more than most people will get from their meals alone

Types of protein

Amino acids & Branched chain amino:

Although you can supplement individual amino acids for most people a complete protein powder is sufficient. Protein which is consumed metabolizes into amino acids. If you do wish to try individual Amino Acids the ones bodybuilders prefer most commonly are leucine, isoleucine and valine. These branched chain amino acids are assumed to promote resistance to muscle breakdown.

Soy protein, a naturally occurring complete protein may sometime exhibit estrogenic activity and is therefore avoided by many of the bodybuilders, however egg protein is preferred as it is also a complete protein. Casein, a rich protein source of the amino acid glutamine is preferred as it contains casomorphine additionally, which releases amino acids at regular intervals.

Protein powders are available online from websites such as Bulk Nutrition. Remember muscles are primarily made of protein so protein also helps us in the repairing and growth of muscles. It is usual to take protein just after exercise or as a replacement for a meal.

As well as protein you may wish to also supplement these:

2. Creatine Supplements - Creatine can significantly increase muscle volume along with protein. It will also improve your weightlifting performances and raise your energy levels so that your workouts are more intensive and this provides for greater muscle gain.

3. Glutamine Supplements. Glutamine helps in your muscle recovery after your workouts and also prevents muscle lost due to muscle catabolism.

4. Multi Vitamins / Minerals Supplement - an active person need many vitamins and minerals. They also assist in recovery as some vitamins and minerals are antioxidants. They remove free radicals generated after your muscles are stressed out and damaged during a gym workout.

And that's it. Unless you are considering becoming a competitive bodybuilding! Then you'll need a few more things

The Casinos Online Are Fun!

Gambling is fun, face up to it. However, we do not want it to become an addictive habit. It is a risk. But as natural to us as eating a tender, rare, mouth salivating steak and as satisfying, if you win.

No, we cannot just pick up and drive or fly to Vegas to satisfy our gambling itch. We can, however, and this is the fun part, get into a game right in our own home.

With the time it takes for you to think about going to the casino to play, is the time it will take you to surf the internet, join an online tournament and begin play. Whatever your game is - poker or blackjack, you will find the best tables to play. Without worrying about any other players affecting your play.

Now, where to go?

There are choices of course. You could, however, download software or you can opt not to download any of the available software. There are games that have no requirement to download any software in order to play. There are players though who feel that downloading a software program gives you the advantage of playing the best casino games.

The casinos online have made the process of joining truly easy for you. When entering an online casino site, you are given your choice to either download a software program or just click on another option to play without downloading. There are different ways to play a casino online and they are flash, HTML, Live Dealer and Java.

Online casinos - Flash

With flash, in order for you to join and play, you do not need to download any software. This is an advantage. No need to overcrowd the storage in your computer with the senseless entertainment you would be exposed to. Another advantage would be - if your computer crashes - you can play from another computer. Maybe your co-worker’s computer, when he’s not around of course. Disadvantage - graphics are not as good as they are with downloaded software.

Live Dealer, Java and HTML are some of the casino program software available. The best gambling is experienced on the downloaded casino software. The game play is fast paced, the graphics are the most detailed with the downloaded software. Live Dealer provides more options than HTML and Java provide. And downloaded casino software doesn‘t need the latest software to access them.

Java, HTML and Live Dealer are among the casino downloaded programs. Downloaded casino software offer the best of the casino gambling online experience. These were among the first software programs to offer online gambling. Java may still be found, but the chances are you’ll not use it since you already have Live Dealer or using flash player.

The simplest graphics and with the least options are the HTML casinos. This may work best for you if your internet connection slow and hardware is ancient.

And finally, do not become an addict! Possibly this piece of advice is useless. Since I’m sure you’ve already opened your account, in a different window, and finished your download - right!

NHL Scoring Machine: Phil Esposito

By Ross Everett

Though his scoring records have been obliterated by Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, former Boston Bruins/New York Rangers center Phil Esposito is still regarded by hockey cognoscenti as one of the greatest offensive players in the history of the game. He is a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame, as is his brother Tony Esposito who was a standout goaltender for the Chicago Blackhawks.

A native of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Esposito was signed by the Chicago Blackhawks as a teenager. After some time in junior hockey, he was called up to the NHL in'64 quickly earning a spot on the teams top line between Bobby Hull and Marcel Dionne. In'67, Esposito was traded to the Boston Bruins along with Ken Hodge and Fred Stanfield.

It wasnt long before Esposito started to destroy long standing NHL records. In'69, he became the first NHL player to top the 100 point mark (combined goals and assists) for the season"he obliterated the record with 126 points, which would be the first of six times that hed top the century mark. He topped 100 points in five straight seasons between'71 and'75, missing a sixth straight season by a single point with 99 in'70. Bruins fans were fond of displaying car bumper stickers that read Jesus Saves; Esposito scores on the rebound.

In the'70-71 season, Esposito smashed the NHL record for most goals in a season with 76. That record stood for over a decade until Wayne Gretzky scored 79 for the Edmonton Oilers in'81-82. Gretzky also broke Espositos single season points record of 154. Even now, only four other players including Gretzky have scored more than 150 points in a season and only five others have scored more than 76 goals in a season. Perhaps the most amazing element of Espositos game was the frequency with which he put the puck on net"Espo had 550 shots on goal in'70-71. No one has since come close"in fact, just last Alexander Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals became the first player to come within 100 shots of Espositos mark.

In'75, Esposito was traded with Brad Park to the New York Rangers for Brad Park, Joe Zanussi and Jean Ratelle. By that point, he had been slowed considerably by knee injuries but his experience, intelligence for the game and nose for the puck made him a valuable component of the Broadway Blueshirts offense and he was named team captain. Until the very end of his career, he remained a dangerous scoring threat that all opposing teams were forced to reckon with.

After his retirement in'75, moved into the executive suite. He served as the GM of the Rangers before helping secure an expansion team for Tampa, Florida in'92. Esposito served as the President and GM of the Tampa Bay Lightning until'98.

Event Photography - 101 Tips

By Terry Brown

Event photography, these days is an attractive profession. People who cover events like marriages, seminars, sports events, award ceremonies etc. are called event photographers.

There is a misconception among people that all an event photographer does is arrive at the venue with a camera and start shooting merrily. However, this is not true at all. An event photographer needs to have some important skills to excel at his job, which he/she can sharpen through a variety of courses available for this purpose.

From the outside you may believe that as the photographer runs around just snapping that there is no method in their photography. At an event there is an aim in place that must be satisfied. Generating a large spread of great high quality photos takes skill and an extraordinary eye. Being quick off the mark is a must to capture all those unexpected shots.

The first skill that an event photographer should possess is imagination and it must be coupled with the capability to understand the mood of an event. As an example, the approach for wedding photography has to be entirely different from corporate photography. Therefore, the photographer must have a flair for capturing the mood of an event in his images.

Event photography also requires appropriate handling of several issues that may arise during the event. If you are slack and casual then this profession is definitely not suited for you. The photographer should be ready with his equipment and camera well in advance to the beginning of the event. Taking the job casually and appearing in an event without any preparation will severely undermine your chances of doing well in this career.

It is obvious that an event photographer should know his art inside out. A complete know-how of the photography equipment goes a long way in getting high quality photographs. The use of light and different angles is very important in any form of photography and a photographer must know how to make use of them in different situations.

In short, event photography requires the practitioner's devotion along with his eagerness for learning different aspects of the trade. You also need to improve your alertness levels and adaptability to be able to do well in this field.

Ultimate Guitar Tab

By Stan Stewickiva

There are many places to find free guitar tabs online. Some of these ultimate guitar tab websites are free, while others charge a fee.

Paying for an ultimate guitar tab website is very expensive and should only be a final step after you have tried all of the free services. The free services have almost any song you can imagine. The pay sites also have thousands of songs but they are not free.

One of the fastest ways to learn how to play a song is by learning from an ultimate guitar tab book. Although learning the chords and scales is beneficial, this takes a lot of time. Both methods help build finger strength and coordination.

You can learn just about any song you like in a few hours by trying the guitar tabs. I learned how to play many songs from ultimate guitar tab books and still do so today.

Guitar tab is usually said to be a huge shortcut to learning how to play the guitar. You can learn songs quicker, but in the longer term it is maybe better to learn the chords and scales so you can learn how to play any song.

If you want to learn how to play a song very quickly and easily, all you need to do is look for the ultimate guitar tab transcription of that song. Some people spend several days using sheet music, chords and scales to learn a song. I feel sorry for them because I can learn the same song in a matter of hours with the ultimate guitar tab notes.

For people who can not read sheet music, or hear notes very well, an ultimate guitar tab transcription will show you the exact notes that are being played. This helps when you are playing very complicated songs where you use your fingers to pick each note instead of a guitar pick.

If you have ever played a song using just the chords, you probably are wondering why you cannot get it to sound the same as the recording. You are probably missing some of the notes. If you used an ultimate guitar tab sheet to play the song, you would have them all right there in front of you.

Some people try to impress that special significant other by playing them a cheesy love song on guitar. Before ultimate guitar tab songs were invented this use take hours or days. But now you can play the catchy notes to almost any song in a few minutes.

Playing To Win Against Top Poker Players

How do professional poker players get so good? Why do they always win? What is it about them that makes them win over and over, and so much money? But the most important question is: How do I play like they do?

First, you need to learn what makes a top poker player so good. You have to start practicing your game and learn what it is the pros do to keep on top. Here are some tips the pros have handed out.

- Keep in mind that you can lose. No one wins every single hand, this is something that you just have to accept. Don't let it make you unhappy or angry, and don't give up simply because you've had a bad hand or two. No matter what happened yesterday, the odds stay the same. Keep in mind that you have the same chance of losing today as you did yesterday. The game doesn't care how good your day went, or how badly.

- Think about the big win. Everyone wants that pot. Ideally, the winner will be you. But remember, everyone has the same goal. Don't worry about them, though, focus on yourself. You're not there to make friends. In the game, look out for yourself and your hand. Keeping your eye on your cards will make you focused and give you a better chance to win.

- Keep your problems at home. A good player sits down and thinks of nothing but the game. If something happened that you can't stop thinking about, then don't play. If you bring your problems with you to the table, you will end up spending more time worried about them than thinking about winning.

- Dedicate yourself to the game. You have to focus on the table. Think about nothing else but the cards in your hand and the money in the pot. Don't let your mind wander away. If you really want to be a winner, you have to dedicate yourself 100% to the game.

Profession pokers are all about the game. They're not out there to make friends and socialize, they're there to win and win big. If you want to win like a pro, you have to play like one. The reason they look so serious when they play is because they are taking the game seriously.

These four tips should help you get started on the path to being a pro. But you also have to practice with your poker skills. The right attitude will only get you so far if you don't know how to play the game. Practice regularly and play as often as you can to get better. To be the best at the game you have to know and understand the rules as well as have the right mindset. If you put everything into being a top poker player, than you soon will be a pro. Keep these tips in mind, practice, practice, practice, and one day you will be the player other people want to be.

One game that normally is just a solo game is slots, offline or on the Internet. This is a machine that is played by one person.

With Internet casinos, many options exist for the player to go solo with the only opponent being the computer. One game that is normally played solo is blackjack. Several of the games that can be downloaded from the Internet casinos a meant for solo play opposing the computer.

Some of the enjoyment with the casino games really is the excitement of competing and winning against the other players. This is the reason the multiplayer versions for the casino games have been and continue to be highly popular.

Cosmic Ordering - From Dream To Reality

By Samantha Hill

More and more people are looking for ways to enjoy their lives and fulfill their desires these days. They are trying to accomplish their goals and also satisfy their materialistic and other aspirations. In today's world there are more and more ways of getting the kind of life you want but nothing is as good as cosmic ordering.

Cosmic ordering can be simply described as a different kind of spiritual practice which helps you to attain all that you want from the universe. It can be likened to an ordering service where you order your heart's desire and you will get it. However, though this is a spiritual process, you don't need to be a saint or be a complete philanthropist or something as good as that to use it. Goodness does count and help. However this method works as well for regular people.

When you are able to spiritually manifest your goals and dreams, then it's known as cosmic ordering. All you need to do is ask for what you want from the universe or just state your ambition. It can be something as easy as getting a new pen to some thing as big as wanting to be a millionaire. You don't have to know how it will happen, whether it will happen by changing your life or conditions.

Noted spiritual gurus like Dr. Wayne Dyer and Dr. Deepak Chopra reveal that you need to enter a particular energy field known as the field of intent to manifest your desires. This is nothing but a kind of a frequency where we form a spiritual connection with the universe and that's when our desires are physically manifested by the cosmos.

Though you may not know is as cosmic ordering, you definitely would have used it in the past. You may have wanted something badly at sometime and you got it. Its not coincidence, it's just that you unknowingly placed an order with the universe which was delivered.

To use cosmic ordering, you need to have the right kind of intention. Intention is nothing but a mix of our desires and faith which makes us believe that we deserve the best in life and that this faith can help us in creating a better life for ourselves. The cosmos only accepts your orders when you really want something badly and believe that you are worthy of receiving it.

There are many people who may say that they want a new house or a coveted promotion or job. However, deep inside consciously or subconsciously they may not believe that they worked hard to get their wishes or that they deserved it. For this to work, you need to believe that you deserve what you are asking for.

Its one of the most straightforward and easy processes in the world and it can help you to completely change your life. The only problem here is that if you believe and focus on the bad or the negative instead of positive, then cosmic ordering may manifest the negative as well.

Hence, if you think your boss will fire you and keep thinking that, then chances are that it will happen. Therefore, you need to just think, talk and believe that you will get all the positive things that you desire and want.

Many people who have been trapped in bad conditions and think that they don't deserve happiness or the good things of life don't really realize the truth and hence it is almost next to impossible for them to learn to manifest the good things.

Your subconscious mind can also become your biggest enemy and hindrance in manifesting the things that you desire because the beliefs fed into it for years may not allow it to believe in the cosmic ordering service.

Communication with the subconscious mind can be accomplished by self hypnosis, meditation and simple affirmations. It's not tough at all!

Lot of people world over have used cosmic ordering to manifest the life they want. Its time for you to also use this tool and get the life you really want. Now is the time to use cosmic ordering to have a great and prosperous life.

Progressive Jackpots - What's The Big Deal?

If you have been playing in the online casinos then you have probably heard about progressive jackpots. What are they and why is everyone so excited about them? Progressive jackpots are a way to win big and there are plenty of reasons why people are talking about them.

The Definition

A progressive jackpot is not complex to understand. Simply put it is a jackpot that gets larger each time a game is played. Progressive jackpots are available on gaming machines, like slot machines. The jackpot is not just for one machine, though.

One jackpot can have several machines linked to it, so everyone playing on the machines linked to that jackpot are playing for that jackpot. This is both good and bad. On the one hand you are competing with others so your chances of winning are lessened, but on the other hand, everyone playing is building up the jackpot.

Why All the Hype?

Progressive jackpots are definitely very popular. People seem to love them and love to talk about them. Why is there so much hype about this type of jackpot?

The bottom line is that progressive jackpots offer you a chance to win some of the highest jackpots available. Since they are constantly being built up, the minute you hit the right winning combination you win a large chunk of cash. Who wouldn't want to try to win a huge jackpot?

People also like progressive jackpots because they are associated with gaming machines. Slot machines are already very popular. They require no special knowledge to play. They are easy to find and available in every online casino.

Another perk of these machines is that in order to win players are usually required to play a certain number of credits. Some players do not realize this and end up playing a minimum number of credits, so they cannot win the jackpot, but every time they play they are increasing the jackpot. This makes the odds more in favor of those who are playing the required number of credits.

Finally, playing progressive jackpots has the same odds of playing a regular machine. You have the same chance of winning, but you can win so much more with progressive jackpots. Basically, you get more for your money since you have the same chance of winning as when you play a regular machine.

Playing progressive jackpots is something you have to decide for yourself. You can stick to regular machines and still win big, but you will not have the chance to win the huge jackpots that are paid out through progressive jackpots.

When making your decision about playing progressive or regular jackpot games, make sure you think about everything. Consider the number of players and the amount of money that you have to play. Do not get tricked into thinking that you have a better chance with a progressive jackpot machine because you don't. Stick with your usually slot strategies that you use to win on regular machines and you should be fine if you do choose to play a progressive jackpot.

Win Big by Playing Progressive Jackpots

No wonder everyone is buzzing about these big buck payouts. If you want to know more about how to get in on the action then read on and discover all you need to know about playing progressive jackpots.

Knowledge is King

If you have a good understanding of the game and know how to calculate the odds it gives you a decided edge. Knowledge trumps even a wild card, and the more you know about jackpots and gaming the easier it is for you to determine the right play that will make you a winner.

Progressive Jackpot from A-Z

When you have a progressive jackpot it means that the amount of money in the pot increases each time the game is played. The payout is constantly tracked and displayed on screen to all players. Games that have a progressive jackpot are being offered on multiple sites so that they will attract the maximum interest. These types of jackpots are the highest payouts offered by casinos and gaming sites. As more players come to the table the jackpot grows. The higher the jackpot grows the more players come back to the table. This is why the payout amounts for these types of games grow so rapidly.

The only difference between slots or video poker that is played for a progressive jackpot and those that are being played for regular jackpots is the fact that the progressive jackpot pays the winner more money. There are no tricks or gimmicks involved, and the winning odds are unchanged.

Increasing the Jackpot Amount

Each time a progressive jackpot game is played and not won the jackpot amount increases.Playing for a progressive jackpot will require you to pony up a minimum number of credits if you want to be eligible for the money payout. You can still try the game without investing the total number of credits, but should you win you will not be awarded the jackpot. Any of the credits that are collected by players of a progressive jackpot game will be added to the jackpot amount, even those that come from players who have not entered enough credits to be eligible for the payout.

The money amount in a progressive jackpot grows rapidly because there are so many players trying their luck at multiple gaming sites around the world. Building a jackpot with an astronomical payout is not hard to do because of the high number of players. If you check out some of these jackpot games you will see that the payout amount is increasing almost every minute.

A progressive jackpot is reset to a minimum amount immediately after it has been won. Once this is done players can begin playing and build the jackpot amount up once again. Even when the amount is reset to a minimum number the jackpot will be rebuilt quickly.

Stick to your Playing Strategy

All casino games are played the same regardless of what type of jackpot you are playing for. A progressive jackpot does not change anything except the amount of the payout. You should remember this and stick to your usual playing style and game strategy. Do not allow those big dollar jackpots to make you forget the importance of careful, responsible playing. Some people are dazzled by the large dollar amounts they see onscreen and they start playing so free and loose that they soon have no hope of winning.

Don't be afraid to start playing progressive jackpots but just stick to your standard gaming play. Do not let large jackpot amounts intimidate you and cause to you forget the limits you set. Keep your gaming strategies in mind and never shift your playing style just because the jackpots are continuing to increase well into 6 numbers

When you opt to play a progressive jackpot game you are giving yourself a chance to win a really big payout. Still the odds for a win with these games are the same as they would be on any other game. However there is certainly more to be gained by winning one of these enormous payouts as opposed to the smaller payouts offered with those regular games.

Camping Equipment Comes In Many Different Products

By Gary Williams

A weekend camping trip is supposed to be relaxing for all those involved but if you don't have the correct kind of camping gear it can be anything but that. For those families who enjoy monthly trips, it really makes sense to stay current with the trends in the latest types of camping equipment. And even though you might think that having all of the right gear will be a hindrance, it will actually allow you to relax more as you know you can handle just about anything that mother nature will throw your way.

Recently we have seen many new types of camping equipment introduced that are vastly improved over prior products. These products include camping stoves, lanterns, camp showers, coffee makers, cooking utensils, and more. It is amazing to compare what is currently available with what was offered only a few short years ago. The popularity of this industry allows more innovations to be released each year which gives the camper many more choices.

Fortunately, the very best brands and prices of camping gear can be easily found online with just a few mouse clicks. Before you buy, though, try to consider your personal preferences and really focus on the things you must have. Also consider where you will primarily be camping, how often, and who will be with you. This will give you the best chance at finding the right equipment without spending too much money.

While many people consider sleeping bags and a tent essential items, there are others who prefer to sleep out underneath the stars. This is, however, not typical as most families like to remain comfortable while enjoying being out in nature. There are many additional kinds of camping accessories that can give you the level of comfort you desire.

Some of the other somewhat new kinds of camping equipment include specialty cookware, smaller grills, coffee pots, and camping showers. Imagine how great it would be to wake up in your tent and just hop into the portable shower to get clean for the day. It would almost feel like being home but you would be enjoying nature. The sheer number of great camping products available today really boggles the mind.

While there are some campers who like to use almost no gear and really just 'rough it' this is not typical. The majority of people like to sleep in a warm sleeping bag and use a soft pillow to rest their head on. You should just honestly assess your situation and make sure you get all the equipment you need to enjoy yourself because that is the most important part of camping.

Really all you can do is buy what you think you need and just try it out on a camping trip. After a couple of times you will know if you are lacking anything and then you can buy what you need at a later time.

How To Control The Amazing Power Of The Mind

By Janice Stokes

Yes, you can use the power of the mind to not only change yourself, but also influence things around you as well. In fact, you already do this on an everyday basis, sometimes without even realizing it.

Whenever you are daydreaming about something, and then it happens, that is the power of your own mind. Ever go to bed and as you fall asleep say to yourself, 'I have to get up and such and such time,' and then end up waking when you wanted too? This also is a perfect example of the subconscious mind at work.

Scientists found explanation on the phenomena of mind power with quantum physics research, which concluded that the whole reality of life is in fact a product of our own mind.

Even with eastern religions, the power of the mind has demonstrated its influences to reality. They believed that the concept of being real exists because it is the manifestations of our imaginations.

Ironically, in this age of advanced science, experts are still looking at ancient scrolls and texts to determine the true nature of being real or reality.

So if reality is a creation of our mind, then it seems logical to presume that we can change our reality by changing the way we think about things. We can change things into whatever we want with the power of the mind.

One place to start making relevant changes to life is by mental conditioning. Unlocking the power of the mind through meditation can clear out unnecessary thoughts and replace it with positive thoughts and fresh new ideas. There are actually a number of techniques on which you can meditate and effectively develop the power of the mind.

To meditate, try sitting on a comfortable chair in a dark room. Close your eyes and start breathing deeply and slowly; breathing in through your nose and breathing out through your mouth. Take a few minutes doing this. Eventually, you will notice feeling a little light headed. This is actually a normal reaction to increasing the oxygen in your system.

Visualize yourself in front on a tranquil pond with pebbles in it. The pebbles symbolize your random thoughts and ideas, your every day confusions. Imagine getting those pebbles out of the pond. Once you are done, you are now ready to unlock the power of the mind. Clearing out the pond is clearing out your mind with random thoughts that constantly goes in and out of your mind. This way, you will be able to separate your random thoughts from your wishes and wants.

Of course, wishing for causes like world peace and global warming is unreachable with only one person. But you can do your part in saving the planet by doing some recycling and waste segregation. However, wishing for dream jobs and happiness in love is something that you can achieve with the power of your mind. While the mind influences virtually all aspects of your life, it is you that controls your mind and make it work to bring all good things into your life.

For example, if you are having trouble in your relationship, you could wish for help communicating with your partner. While you can't make them communicate with you, you can influence them by improving yourself.

But while mind power can bring positive changes into your life, it may not happen right away. Some things take time to happen. For instance, you need time to develop and unlock the power of the mind and overcome all your negativity.

Although mind power has tremendous influences to every aspect of life, it still needs you to take your part. When the mind can control how your life will come to be, it is you that controls the mind and its immense power. So if you wish to get your dream job, you still need to red through the classified ads, send in applications and do your best.

Unearth 5 Impressive Motion Picture Commentaries For You To Pick From

By Bertie Hull

It is a misleading notion for you to think that you are protected from prosecution for downloading illegally copied movies because you are just a customer and the site owner is the one breaching the law. Computers leave a trail behind and every IP address that has ever utilized the service can be traced back to the owner. Ordinary customers have already been prosecuted for copyright violations for music downloads and it could happen with film downloads also.

40 Year Old Virgin - Andy Sitzer is 40 years old, and is still a virgin. When his co-workers learn of his situation, they are right away on a assignment to get him laid. Mishaps and adventures ensue, with love just around the bend. Cool film, not recommended for children. Starring Steve Carell, Catherine Keener, Paul Rudd, Seth Rogan. From 2005.

Frontier Hellcat - An additional Karl Winnetou story, which seizes the flavor of the Old West in the adventure of pioneers passing through the Rockies. Cast includes Stewart Granger, Elke Sommer, Pierre Brice, and Gotz George. (98 minutes,'66)

Doug's First Movie - The superstar of Television's Doug is characterized in this dull, mechanical fable, made exclusively for children. Carefree preteen Doug attempts to spare an animal in need clash with his hope to take his girl friend to the school dance. This motion picture was made as a direct-to-video production. Voices of Thomas McHugh, Fred Newman, Chris Phillips, Constance Shulman, Doug Preis, and Alice Playten. (97 minutes,'99)

Sexy Beast - A retired British criminal, living the life in Spain, is visited by a brutal gangster who desires him to work one more heist. Trendy, aggressive, current day gangster's film has excellent acting containing a special performance by Kingsley as the hateful perpetrator. Cast includes Ray Winstune, Ben Kingsley, Ian McShane, Cavan Kendall, Julianne White, Alvaro Monje, and James Fox. (88 minutes, 2001)

Kimberley Jim - Little musical of 2 carefree gamblers who win a fortune in a fixed poker game, and then have a change of heart. Cast includes Jim Reeves, Madeleine Guide, Clive Pamell, Arthur Swemmer, and Mike Holt. (82 minutes,'65)

The way to stop the tribulations that can happen with free of charge motion picture downloads is to circumvent the websites that are offering to let you download for free of charge. Material things of value are not often without charge. Be choosy and make sure that you pick out a highly regarded and fully lawful site. Most of these work on a membership basis so you shell out a small membership payment and you are allowed indefinite downloads plus you get the additional protection for your computer.
