The Origin Of Atlas Model Trains

By Ferdinand Emy

Just like many other companies in the model train industry, the story of atlas model trains is a story of resourcefulness, entrepreneurship, and hard work, mixed with a passion for a hobby that produced a company that grew larger than what anybody would have imagined at the beginning.

Origin of atlas model trains goes back to the early decades of the twentieth century, when Stephan Schaffan Sr. established what would become atlas model trains. Back then, it was a tool company, and not a model train company and Stephan Schaffan sr. Was so ridden with insufficient human resources that he had his son Stephan Schaffan Jr. Came and helped him with the business.

Stephan Schaffan Jr. Wasn't happy with the money that he gained at his dads business (that is if he earned anything at all). He was a young and inventive man who liked machinery. He would go after work and built model airplanes at his house. There was a local airplane model shop where he lived, and he would visit it frequently. He applied to pester the possessor by asking for a side job that he could do to earn extra money, to which the possessor would always refuse him.

All the same, one day, the possessor of the store grew so lethargic of Stephan Jr.'s incessant and badgering requests that he gave him a large quantity of old railroads and model trains that he didn't want to use anymore, in the hopes that Stephan would go away and leave him for crying out loud.

Little did he know that these old railroad tracks and models that he discarded so without apparent effort would finally become what today is known as atlas model trains.

Stephan Jr. Went back home and worked on those trains. Being an inventive and intellectual young man, he designed a switch set, which would become the staple of atlas model trains, and that allowed the user to commence and stop the trains by manipulating the voltage on the tracks.

Thereafter, Stephan Jr. created more productions which made the constitution grow even more, while his fathers business started to look little in comparison. someplace along the line, the first name was dropped and the constitution took the name of atlas model railroad, because most people know it by the name atlas model trains.

Now with atlas model trains officially existing, Stephan created assorted gimmicks that saved work for the persons who relished the model train hobby. example, he created pre-assembles' tracks, that saved his clients the problem of assembling it themselves. generally his innovations made track assembling much having little impact. Atlas model trains is today one of the notable names in the industry. because Stephen Jr. is no longer alive, atlas model trains and his bequest made model trains a much more accessible hobby for train lovers.

Love Story is Taylor Swift's Tribute To Young Love

By Stevie Clark

For a young singer/songwriter, Taylor Swift has managed to do an outstanding feat in the music scene. She was able to establish a big name for herself in such a short time. Now, this young girl is not only a country superstar, she also managed to bad an Album of the Year award at the Academy of Country Music, something her older colleagues would've died to get.

When she entered the music scene, she already showed great potential. Taylor Swift was a talented young artist who writes her own songs and plays her guitar well. She is a certified country music artist. She proved this point once again when she made Love Story, the first single from her second album, a hit.

The song is taken from her latest album, Fearless. It tells the story of a forbidden love from two young teenagers. In the song, Juliet, the narrator, begs her Romeo not to leave her and take her somewhere they can be alone. She wants to get away from people who disapproves of her love for Romeo.

Juliet tells how she met Romeo for the first time and fell in love with him. Because her daddy doesn't want her to be with Romeo, she sneaks out to the garden to meet with Romeo.

The forbidden love was too much to bear for Juliet because people were telling her how she should feel. But despite all that, she remains hopeful and faithful to their love for each other. But as every deep feelings are meant to end up, Juliet started to lose faith in the love because she got tired of waiting for Romeo.

Using the characters of the classic Shakespearian play Romeo and Juliet was a wise move for the singer/songwriter. This made the song more appealing to the audience because they will be able to understand the song better. Who doesn't know the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet? Alluding the characters of this classic added more appeal to the story of the song. It adds to the aesthetic value of the song.

But whether the audience relates to the message of the song or not, the song's impact is undeniable. Fans love it. This is one of the cases where depth of lyrics doesn't really matter much. It's all about the music as a whole.

Taylor Swift has written a very nice song, accompanied it with great, catchy music, and sang it with the gusto of a young girl who is in love. Nothing can be better than that.

Bruce Jenner Undergoes Reconstructive Cosmetic Surgery

By Leonard Dawson

Bruce Jenner is known to many people as an Olympic hero. In the 1976 Olympic Games, Jenner broke the world record for points when he won the decathlon. In a gesture that has since been emulated by many athletes, a bystander handed him an American flag and he held it high as he ran his victory lap, cementing his place in the hearts of many viewers.

In the thirty plus years since the Olympics, Jenner has become a spokesman for Wheaties cereal and appeared on many television shows, most notably Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which he stars in with his wife and children. What has come to light recently has been Jenner's past plastic surgery mishaps and his recent procedure to correct failed facelift operations.

Over twenty five years ago, Jenner went against the advice of doctors and had a facelift and rhinoplasty. The result was far from what he had expected. While Jenner was certainly not disfigured or horribly scarred, his appearance changed rather dramatically, sparking a flurry of rumours over the years, ranging from horrific surgery tales to the rumour that he was burned while fleeing a burning house with his family. The truth is far less dramatic.

Jenner received an ill advised partial face lift as well as rhinoplasty. He has never spoken publicly about the surgery, and refused until recently to publicly acknowledge the incident. That all changed recently, however, when Jenner decided to have reconstructive cosmetic surgery to repair the results of his former surgery. The results were revealed on his television show with his supportive wife and children by his side. Daughter Kim called the episode "heartfelt" and stated that viewers gained an insight into how the initial procedure affected Bruce Jenner throughout the years.

There is little doubt that cosmetic surgery is popular among stars. When you put your face and body in the right hands and listen to the advice of a qualified surgeon, the results can be remarkable. The tiniest changes can produce remarkably dramatic results. Bruce Jenner had the unfortunate experience to go against surgical advice, and he lived with the results for over two decades. The world finally has a chance to see the new and improved Bruce, and his family seems more than impressed by the results. Whether you know him for his acting or his Olympic heroism, there is little doubt that it is excellent to see Bruce Jenner looking so good and healthy again.

Guitar Types - Understanding the Different Types of Guitars

By Drew Peterson

At the moment, an instrument which a lot of people like to play is the guitar. You don't have a limit of choices when it comes to the different types. There are many different ones and they can all look and sound very different, and some which don't play quite the same as others. So what are all the different types of guitars available? Well let's look at a few!

If you're seeking out a starting point, then your starting point should be acoustic. It might sound boring, but these are great beginner instruments. They don't rely on electricity, and are in fact able to produce a sound using only their bodies. These are made of a lot of different types of wood, and each wood may make a different sound.

There's a multitude of different acoustic guitars to choose from. One that you might want to look into is the classical guitar. This will serve a beginner well with it's nylon strings and great sounds. You could look into flamenco guitars, which are quite like classical ones but are thinner and sound a little better.

A 12 string guitar is another type of acoustic guitar. This guitar comes with 12 strings instead of the normal 6 strings of regular guitars. Each string has another string that is tuned to the same note but it sounds an octave higher. It provides a very pleasing sound.

Another type of acoustic that you can get is called the steel top. They're sort of like the classical guitars, and they have heavily reinforced bodies. They also differ because they are a lot larger. These also possess a much warmer tone which tends to make a more mellow sound than other guitars.

Acoustic base isn't a bad choice. It's a bass guitar that doesn't feature any sort of electric pick ups. It has a great body which gives off a sound agreeable to anyone, and has four strings. You can pick up models which have more strings, five or six if you so desire.

You've probably heard of electric guitars by this point, which is what a lot of people are looking to play. They are a little more advanced, and have electronic pick ups which amplify them. In order for this to work properly you will need to locate and purchase a decent amplifier. The body of the guitar makes it impossible for noise to be emitted without an amplifier.

The majority of electric guitars will come with control knobs. These knobs can change the tone as well as control the volume. Some guitars have whammy bars which permit you to shift the notes when playing, and be using them you won't have to reposition your fingers. These bars are often used to make a sound which is known as 'crying'.

Those are only a few guitars which are available on the market. Though you might wish to try out some of the other types of guitars later on, it would be best to begin at square one, and in square one is the classical acoustic. Once you learn the basic principals you can try the many other types, and decide which one you like best.

Golfing Etiquette Essentials

By Rhys Jones

Golf is a game of rules and etiquette, and it is quite important to know the essentials of golfing etiquette before you go up to the tee to play your first game of golf.

Golfing etiquette dictates that it doesn't matter whether you are playing on your own, in a twosome or in a foursome, you must always wait your turn. You must also remain aware of the group on the next hole and wait until they are well ahead of you before hitting your ball.

Golfing etiquette also means that it is never cool to "push" the group in front of you. If you are playing with others, wait for your turn to hit the ball; never hit at the same time as another player.

While you wait for your turn, go to your ball and determine what club you will need to use and how you are going to hit it. This is called "ready golf" and keeps the game moving along. Don't rush anybody, just be ready.

Another useful piece of golfing etiquette, especially for the beginner is 'playing through'. For example, if your team is holding up the players behind you, say because you are playing consistently over par, let them play through. You would simply wave them through, or if they are near enough to you, just ask them if they would like to play through. You will never make enemies by doing this!

When someone is taking a shot, you should be standing behind them and you shouldn't make a sound! It is so distracting to be about to to tee off and just as you pull back, someone decides to jingle loose change in their pocket or noisily unwrap a piece of candy.

Replacing your divots. Say you are on the fairway and you hit the ball and a clod of dirt and grass goes flying, golfing etiquette says you should replace it. On some courses you just put the clod back and step on it to press it down, but on most courses, there is a sand/seed mixture on the course to put into the divot. If your ball makes a deep impression when it lands on the green, you can use your divot tool to repair it.

As soon as you have finished a hole, replace the flag and leave the green quickly so that the next players can play that hole. Count your score and write it on the scorecard when you're back at your cart.

For sure, there is much more to golfing etiquette than this, but these basic rules of golfing etiquette will enable you to get around the course without upsetting anyone. If we all uphold golfing etiquette we will keep the game nice and friendly, or not?

Britney Spears Solidifies Her Comeback With Womanizer Single

By Shane Bascome

Listeners can only have two reactions to Britney Spears' Womanizer single. You can either love or hate it. And for this writer, the reaction is definitely not the latter.

It has been a while since we have heard from Britney Spears (aside from the news and Internet posts). With the release of Blackout the album, she announced to the world that she is back after couple of years a roller coaster ride in her personal life. She made it official by appearing at the MTV VMAs where she, unfortunately, sucked.

After the release of Blackout, which turned out to be her most unsuccessful album to date, she released Womanizer, a single from her upcoming album. This song seemed to hit the mark. It has all the elements that make a Britney hit: nice lyric, catchy and funky melody, and upbeat tempo. Fans loved it immediately. Just like the other hits, this one will make you get up and want to dance to its electro-pop feel.

Fans will be able to connect to the song easily. The words, penned by Nikesha Briscoe and Rapheal Akinyemi, were relatable. It tells the story of a womanizer who's trying to score but he's been found out and the girl is not giving him a chance to even reach first base. A lot of young girls will connect to this one. The chorus cannot be any catchier: Womanizer, woman-womanizer You're a womanizer Oh womanizer, Oh you're a womanizer baby You, you, you are You, you, you are Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer.

The composers of the song have infused the new trend in pop songs: futuristic sounds and electro-punk feel. It definitely added to the appeal of the song. But it would seem more suitable if the song is devoid of this and concentrated on sticking to the bubblegum pop genre, which is what Britney Spears is famous for.

The record still sounds great nevertheless. One can't deny that this is a hit--a Britney hit. She has her signature all over the record:The lyric, phrasing, the distinctive vocals and tempo.

And even though a music artist should strive for new and better songs, Britney seemed to have taken a couple of steps back with the way this track sounded (she has had earlier songs that showed signs of a more mature artist like the Madonna collaboration). However, it was a good decision to go back to basics. With Womanizer she was able to solidify her position in the pop scene.

One can't deny the fact that Womanizer is a great song. If you expect a great comeback hit from Britney Spears, then you've got it. Nothing more is needed to be said.

Cosmic Ordering - From Dream To Reality

By Samantha Hill

These days, more and more people are trying to enhance their lives by various means. They are trying to have a life which has the luxuries that they desire and are also able to want and appreciate the blessings that they already have. Now days there are a lot of ways and means to realize your ambitions and dreams, however the best method out of these is cosmic ordering.

Cosmic ordering is nothing but a different form of a spiritual practice which enables you to get all your wishes and desires fulfilled by the universe. All you need to do is to ask or just order and you will get it. Though this may be some what a spiritual process but it doesn't mean you need to be a saint to get the results. Yes, if you are one, then it will only help but this process works for normal people as well.

In simple terms cosmic ordering means manifesting your goals and dreams through the spiritual way. You can ask for anything or order anything that you desire from the universe from changing your life to getting the partner of your dreams.

Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. Wayne Dyer believe that to manifest your order with the universe, you need to be in something known as the 'field of intent'. This is nothing but an invisible energy field which aids and catalyses the connection between the spirit and the universe and helps in manifesting our desires.

Most of us have done this before though unconsciously and not realized it. There may have been a time when you desired something badly or really wanted something and then you got what you wanted. You may have labeled it as a coincidence but it was actually the cosmos fulfilling your order.

Power of intention is vital to cosmic ordering since intention is nothing but an amalgamation of our innermost faith and desires. We need to have complete conviction that we deserve what we want and really want it. This is the only way to make cosmic ordering work.

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.

For instance if you think that your boss is out to fire you and believe it, then you will end up getting fired one day. Hence if you don't want the negative, than think and just concentrate on all the positive things you want to manifest.

Living in negative and pessimistic mindset and circumstances for years together has led many people to believe that they don't deserve to be happy. Hence, for these kind of people manifesting their desires is a Herculean task; almost unattainable.

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 is not a big deal. Simple affirmation, hypnosis and meditation can accomplish this.

Since the time this secret has been revealed, millions of people have actually used cosmic ordering to make their lives fun and have everything that they ever wanted. Now it's your turn to get what you want through cosmic ordering.

311 Music - A Music Review

By Steve Stevenson

311 is a band that had their fair share of ups and downs. When they started in the music scene, they have already experienced some troubles with regards to the band's members and were even on the verge of destitution. But through it all, the band has remained dedicated to their music.

Each one of their albums are by-products of their extensive touring of the United States and other countries as well. They worked hard to promote their songs which ranged from alternative to rap to funk to heavy metal.

The band released their first album in 1993. Even though Music was released more than a decade ago, it still commands attention because of its quality. It's single Do You Right got decent airplay and even reached the 27th spot on the Billboard Modern Rock Charts, though it did not propel the album to sell as much as it should.

For most people, a successful song or album is based on how well they do in the sales department or if they constant chart-toppers. Sometimes, it doesn't even have to reach gold or platinum status or receive recognition from different award-giving bodies.

What you need to know is that a record's success is relative. A song doesn't have to rule the charts before it can be considered successful. Personally, the success of a record is dependent on how good the songs are. 311's Music is an example.

In this album, 311 compiled all their earlier LPs. Songs like Do You Right, Feels So Good, and Fat Chance, because of their great quality, have all been popular. These songs are widely played in the band's shows.

When you listen to the album, you will notice a mix of relaxing tunes and upbeat, loud songs, the kind that will make you want to get up and groove to the music. The album's songs clearly don't disappoint. The band was able to successfully mix different tunes that will appeal even to non-rock fans. Nick Hexum, Tim Mahoney, Chad Sexton, and SA Martinez were great in their respective roles. Their combined efforts gave way to the birth of a very great-sounding record that will surely appeal to all fans and music lovers.

Insert 311's Music in your CD players and don't take it out. You can listen to it for months without getting tired of it. That is how great the CD is. This proves that a record doesn't have to be the hottest thing in the music scene to be considered a success. With the right team of talented musicians, you can.

Cindy Crawford Admits Plastic Surgery Has Kept Her Looking Beautiful

By Leonard Dawson

It can be a bit of a guessing game to determine who has had plastic surgery, when it comes to celebrities. Even when surgery is unbelievably obvious, many celebrities prefer to deny that they have had any work done, instead claiming that exercise and diet alone has thinned out an awkward nose, added two cup sizes or overnight removed years of excess body fat. There is no doubt that cosmetic surgery is popular, and why shouldn't it be? However, one thing that caught many people by surprise was when supermodel Cindy Crawford claimed that the beauty of her skin was due to plastic surgeons.

Many people think of pure natural grace and beauty, when they think of supermodels. However, what many people do not expect, is for these beautiful women to ever age. Looking at most supermodels, you would think that the ageing process skips them completely, and that is what makes Crawford's revelation so appealing to people.

When most people look at a woman like Cindy Crawford, they wonder what great genes she must have or what expensive products she must use to stay so beautiful. Crawford debunked that myth, letting women know that even supermodels age and get sagging skin. She admits that she owes the tightness and elasticity of her skin to a very skilled team of cosmetic surgeons as well as to Botox and other products. While with many celebrities, this might seem like uneventful news, it has helped to break that inhuman perception many people have of supermodels, instead showing that they are indeed just like the rest of us.

Cindy Crawford is still a natural beauty, but knowing that even she experiences the signs of ageing is strangely comforting to many people. It also helps to show the benefits of cosmetic procedures such as Botox and the effect they can have on the skin. The truth is that if Crawford had never admitted to the procedures, we would likely still wonder if she simply had genes that the rest of us only dreamed of. That may be true to some degree, but Crawford is living proof that even supermodels ageand she admits it.

Ageing is nothing to be ashamed of, and neither is cosmetic surgery. We all desire to look a bit younger or a bit shapelier. With the right cosmetic surgeon and the right attitude, you can follow in Crawford's footsteps and gracefully combat the effects of ageing on your skin.

Home Theater Screens

By Owen Jones

When it comes to choosing a screen, the first consideration is the type of screen you want or even need. If the room where you are setting up your home theater is large, then you will have to have a home theater projection screen or maybe you just want one anyway.

I, personally, like the idea of having a drop-down screen, but sometimes you have to have one even in a modest home theater. It converts your living room into a home theater: you recline in your chair; click a button and a screen drops down; click a button and the lights dim; click another one and the movie begins!

However, if you prefer a television screen, then you might be considering buying a new one. They say that a 27 inch screen is adequate, but I do not agree. I really think you need 48-60 inches, but then I am a 50 something year old and my eyes are definitely not what they used to be.

If you are buying a new TV for your home theater, I think you should aim high. HDTV is upon us and since February 2009 the USA is committed to High Definition. So, I would make sure that your new TV is capable of receiving it. Then I suggest that the new home theater screen be a flat one to reduce the annoying glare that could ruin the experience. (This could be another reason for opting for a projection screen).

Finally, you should ensure that your new TV has enough input and output sockets for the peripheral equipment you have in mind and you're done. So, to summarize, I recommend you go for:

More than a 27 inch screen

A flat screen

HDTV enabled

Enough input and output plugs and sockets

Satellite compatibility

I recommend satellite compatibility because it is probably the future or near future at least. If you get a satellite TV connection you will have access to HDTV downloads which you can watch whenever you like.

Andrew McMahon Shines in Jack's Mannequin Album

By Steven Stevenson

I can only think of very few musical artists who can get away with cursing in their songs. Most of those who were hear cuss in their lyrics mostly get the ire of a lot of people. That is why hip-hop stars are at risk of being shunned by conservative music fans. However bands like Blink 182 have included obscenities in their song lyrics and yet managed to dodge judgmental stares and comments. Another one is Jack's Mannequin.

The main reason why I got interested with Jack's Mannequin is because of Andrew McMahon who was previously from Something Corporate. I am a fan of this amazing pianist. This guy works magic when he sits in front of the piano and start playing. The moment he places his fingers on the ivory keys, you will be taken to music heaven.

Andrew is also gifted with words, it turns out. In some of the songs in the album Everything in Transit, he showcases his flair for words. He was able to tell a great story through the album. Each song has a clear message that everyone can relate to. He was able to vividly paint a picture in a listener's mind through his words.

Bruised is a song that tells the story of a boy who can leave somebody behind. Through Andrew's words, you will be able to clearly understand the story behind the song. He uses metaphor and the simple, understandable language to come up with a good song.

I'm Ready is a song that will help you feel better after a break up. Listen to this and you will no longer have to suffer pain. The song has a solid writing behind its lyrics, plus a great sounding melody. It will surely appeal to you.

When you listen to it as a whole, you will notice that the album is heavy with good melodies and beats. Songs, either slow- or fast-paced all have that distinct impression on listeners. The songs are also infectious. Songs like La La Lie will get you humming without you knowing it. Dark Blue shows just how good Andrew is at the piano. Combined with simple and relatable lyrics, the piano arrangement effortlessly makes this single amazingly great.

Other tracks in the album like Miss Delaney has lyrics that clearly paints an image in your mind. Such songs will put a stamp in your mind because not only was it well-written, it also has a very good sound to it. It can even get you up and dancing. Rescued, is another beautiful song but unlike Miss Delaney, this is very calming, something you can even use to put you to sleep. In this track, Andrew's flair for playing the piano is clearly evident.

When you take it as a whole, you can't really see anything wrong with Jack's Mannequin's Everything in Transit. It is well-written and composed. It is infectious and has a great quality to it.

History of Beyonces Career

By A. Nutt

Beyonce Giselle Knowles was born September 4th, 1981 in Houston, Texas to Matthew and Tina Knowles as the first born of two girls. Before she reached the age of seven she was singing and showing signs of great talent. When she was seven, she was already attending dance school and was a soloist in the church choir.

By the time she reached her teen years, any spare time she could find was spent with her childhood pals, LaTayia Roberson, Kelly Rowland and LeToya Luckett, performing at local functions. The girls, then known as "Girls Tyme" tried their luck at Star Search but did not make the cut. Beyonces Dad gave up his good paying job in order to devote his time promoting the band. To this day Matthew Knowles manages his daughters career.

After trying a few different names, the girls settled on Destinys Child. The musical debut for the group was the song "Killing Time", which appeared on the soundtrack for the "Men in Black" movie, released in 1997. A year later, they had number one single with the song, "No,No,No, Part 2." The quartet became a trio later on that same year with the departure of LeToya and LaTayia, who decided to pursue individual careers. Destinys Child continued onwards and became one of the top R&B/Pop groups in 2000 accumulating four Billboard Hot 100 number one singles and numerous top ten hits, as well as two albums that went to number one.

The groups second album continued with great success with tracks like "Say My Name," "Jumpin Jumpin," and the very successful "Bug A Boo." In the 2001, two Grammy awards were given to "Say My Name". They followed up with a third album, "Survivor," which produced such hits as the title track as well as "Bootylicious". The group decided to disband by 2005 but had at that time proven themselves as one of the top selling female groups in music history.

Beyonce had proven her worth and skills as a songwriter. She won the 2001 Songwriter of the Year, awarded by the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers Pop Music Awards. This made her the first African-American woman to win the award and only the second woman to win. She also spent a bit of time working on solo projects which at first was not as successful as the projects with the trio, but she was not easily discouraged.

When she finally released her solo debut album, "Dangerously in Love", it went right to the top selling over 300,000 copies in just the first week and went platinum 3 weeks later, in June of 2003. The single from the album,"Crazy in Love" topped the charts and stayed there for over 8 weeks. Later that same year her album and the single topped the charts at the same time which put her on the same level as such musical wonders as The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, and Rod Stewart. She was and still is the only female artist to have accomplished this feat. This helped make Beyonce one of the biggest artists in both sales and popularity for 2003.

In 2004 she won five Grammy Awards. On the Destinys Child album released in 2005, Beyonce released a song called "Check on It," which was used on the soundtrack of "The Pink Panther Movie," released in 2006.

In correspondence with her 25th birthday, she released a second album called "Bday," which sold more than her first solo album, with 541,000 copies sold in the first week after release. The lead single from the album, "Dj Vu," became a number one hit on the US R&B charts.

Not only has Beyonce had success in music, but also on the movie screen. She may be best known for the character Foxy Cleopatra in the 2002 summer movie, "Austin Powers in Goldmember" along side Michael Caine and Mike Myers. In 2003 she appeared beside Cuba Gooding Jr. in the movie "The Fighting Temptations". In 2006, she got chance to pay homage to Diana Ross in a movie based on a Broadway musical depicting the lives of the Supremes. Beyonce showed off her incredible acting skills, playing the part of Ms. Ross in the Movie titled, "Dreamgirls", which opened with first weekend sales of $8 million and has grossed well over $100 million to date.

Beyonces talent has shown no end in sight and her fans are looking forward to see what is yet to come.

Blink 182 Has Not Sold Out on Their Fans With New Album

By Stevie Sanchez

If you're one of those music lovers who dig fun, funky, feel-good music and likes to have their serving of green humor as well, then you would like Blink 182's Take Off Your Pants and Jacket album.

This is their fourth studio album, released on June 12, 2001. Following the success of Enema of the State and The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show, the American pop-punk band has once again hit gold with this record.

It has spawned hit singles like The Rock Show, First Date, and Stay Together for the Kids. There were about 4.5 million copies sold worldwide and went double platinum in the United States. This was also Blink 182's only album that debuted at the top spot of the Billboard 200 and sold more than 350,000 copies during the first week of release.

In everything that we do, one must always strive for something different, if not better. And this is what Blink 182 has managed to do with this record. Though it still has the same pop-punk sound they were famous for, listeners of the CD will see that the band has exerted more effort to come up with more relevant songs that has more than obscenities in their lyrics. The tracks Stay Together for the Kids, Reckless Abandon, and Shut Up prove this point.

Personally, the band has been able to come out of their shell in this album. The melodies sound good. Each track has very interesting and admirable rifts, and the lyrics have more depth. This is great for a band that has been on the music scene for quite some time. The ability to be able to give your audience something new (and better) will help make you stay longer and keep you interesting.

However, there is always the issue of selling out. For some hard core punk fans, Blink 182 has sold out on their fans with coming up with ballad-type songs, which is really unfair on the band's part. Writing and composing new songs unlike most of their previous works should not be seen as selling out on fans. If anything, it should be seen as an innovation and coming of age.

Take Off Your Pants and Jacket is a testament to the band's musicality. If you take the time to really listen to the tracks, you will see that Blink 182 has not abandoned the type of music that made them likeable and famous. There are still songs that are loaded with obscenities and good-natured humor (Happy Holidays, You Bastard and Mother's Day)-something that original Blink 182 fans will truly enjoy.

Most noticeable in the album are the new songs that talks about relationships and feature interesting musical technicalities and powerful and passionate vocals. Anthem Pt. 2 is a very well-written song, way better than Anthem Pt. 1 from the third album. This goes to show that Blink 182 has the chops to write songs that have depth and meaning. Story of a Lonely Guy will surprise you. Aside from the deep emotion you will hear from Tom's vocals, the lyrics are unlike the band has come up before.

Tennis Psychology (Part 1)

By Gail Jones

Tennis psychology is the same as understanding the workings of your opponent's mind and assessing the effect of your own game on his/her head and also understanding the mental effects resulting from the different external causes on your own mind.

However, it is also true that you no one can be a successful psychologist of others without first understanding his own psychology. Therefore, you must study the effect on yourself of the same thing occurring under various circumstances. This is because you react differently in different moods and under different conditions.

You must understand the effect on your game of the resulting annoyance, joy, confusion, or whatever other form your reaction is. Does it increase your prowess? If so, go for it, but never offer it to your opponent. Does it rob you of concentration? If so, either remove the cause, or if that is not possible, strive to ignore it.

Once you have correctly measured your own reaction to circumstances, study your opponents in order to determine their characters. Like characters react similarly, and you may judge men of your own type by yourself. Other temperaments you must seek to compare with people whose reactions you already know.

A person who can regulate his/her own mental processes has an excellent chance of determining those of another for the minds works along definite lines of thought and can be studied. One may only control one's own thought processes after studying them meticulously.

A steady, phlegmatic baseline player is seldom a quick thinker. If he was he would not stay on the baseline. The physical appearance of a player is usually a pretty clear indication of his/her sort of mind. The stolid, easy-going player, who usually advocates the baseline game, does so because he hates to stir up his/her torpid mind to think out a safe strategy of reaching the net.

Then there is the other kind of baseline player, who would rather stay at the back of the court while directing an attack intending to disrupt up your game. He is a much more dangerous player and a deep, keen thinking antagonist. He gets his/her results by mixing up his/her length and direction and worrying you with the variance of his/her game. This player is a good psychologist.

The first kind of tennis player mentioned above merely strikes the ball without much idea of what he is really doing, while the latter always has a definite plan and sticks to it.

Angels & Airwaves Comes Out With a Great First Album

By Tom Alder

Years ago, when Tom, Mark, and Travis of Blink 182 announced that they were taking on an indefinite break, which translates to their splitting up, fans, including myself, felt frustrated and disappointed because it may be the last we'll hear from any of them. It felt wrong to see a band break up just when they are at their prime. But then, all hopes seem to come back when Tom announced his new band, Angels & Airwaves.

The former members of Blink 182 were known to be very talented so it seems like we will not be hearing good stuff from a new band, whether one of the three is fronting them. But that was not the case when Angels & Airwaves came out with their debut album We Don't Need to Whisper.

To start this critique of the album, let me say that Tom is an amazing musician and you can expect him to do magic regardless of what band he plays in. In each track of the album, Tom's wonderful and powerful vocals shone through. Add to that the great performance of each instruments, you have a great track in your hands.

The mixture of good lyrics and good music makes this album great. You will enjoy listening to the amazing way the guitars and percussion were played by the band. The songs have nice rifts; the lyrics have relevance. All of these make for a great listening experience. Not bad for a first album.

With Angels & Airwaves, Tom has taken on a more serious path. He, together with his new band mates, was able to create a great line up of songs that talk about war, love, loss, hope, and space. Each track can stand alone. Each track is brilliant in its own way. They have a more mature sound. The lyrics attempt to talk about serious stuff with more depth.

Angels & Airwaves showcased their superb ability to play the instruments in the album. You will hear every rift, strum, and beat perfectly timed to fit the lyric and melody. In order to give due importance to their musical ability, they have made their introductions long. One track, Valkyrie Missile, had an introduction that runs 2 minutes and 40 seconds. Another track that had a quite long introduction is Distraction, with 1 minute and 9 seconds.

The message of the whole album is what makes it very noteworthy. All the other elements, the lyrics, melody, rifts, and vocals all add up to make the message be heard loud and clear. In each song, you will feel the emotion behind Tom's vocals. It will haunt you and hit home. The message is relayed through the lyrics, which at times, can be repetitive. The writing is good but not remarkable. Nevertheless, it still makes a good impact for the listener.

As an end note, one cannot say that Angels & Airwaves is just another wannabe band. You can say that Tom's involvement has helped a lot in the outcome of their first attempt to enter the music scene but one must also take into consideration the individual talents of the other members. In the end, they, as a group, were able to create a noteworthy and memorable music.

Download Free Movies Com: It's All Online

By Mcleod Barlow

Americans love movies and rightly so. The passion we are share in slipping in a DVD or watching a movie online seems to be one of the most enjoyable and relaxing times of our entire day. It is not only a great form of entertainment but a time to enter different worlds of fantasy played out in movie plots.

How deep is this passion? Each year, we spend millions of dollars buying and renting movies, DVD's and entertaining films. However, having access to so many movies has not always been so easy.

A quick look at history will reveal a time when access to a movie was considered almost a luxury, especially during the Great Depression and in times when the nation was at war. There were only a few sources for movie entertainment during those times and people sought to movie watching experience with great interest.

During the 1920's sound was first introduced to movies. It was then that you could watch a movie and actually hear the characters for the first time. Movies that cam out with sound technology were instant hits as people fell in love with actors such as Shirley Temple.

Other popular films that depicted the rise of the mob in the U.S. such as gangster movies seemed to gender great interest amongst the working class men and young teenage boys. A favorite amongst women seemed to be musicals and plays staring well known actors of that time.

Even though movie production had made great strides, people did not have extra money to spend at the movie theaters. This gave rise to popular radio talk shows and theatrical stories over the airwaves. It was free and a welcomed source of entertainment.

Some of the greatest box office hits during that time included movies by Gloria Swanson, Colleen Moore, Greta Garbo, John Barrymore, Norma Talmadge, Harold Lloyd and others, all idolized stars.

Another big hit during the 1920's was swing music performances put on by Big Bands. Since most of these performances were aired over the radio, it became a popular source of entertainment during the long evening hours.

This went over extremely well. People across the country loved it. It was a way for them to briefly escape the hardships they had to endure and enter a fantasy world where they could live out their fantasies through the roles of their favorite movie stars. It kept them entertained and took their minds of the difficulties of life.

Looking back we have come a long way with movie entertainment. The Internet and advanced technology has taken the movie watching experience to an unlimited level. Not only do we have special cinema and sound effects to include 3D viewing, but entertaining movies have become a common source of entertainment for everyone.

Vanessa Williams Opens Up About Botox

By Leonard Dawson

When it comes to cosmetic procedures, it is often a guessing game to try to determine what celebrities have had anything done. Few celebrities will admit to having cosmetic procedures, even though most admit that everyone seems to be doing it. Because of this, it is always a bit exciting when a celebrity openly reveals that they use cosmetic procedures to attain that perfect television look.

Vanessa Williams, former singer, pageant winner and current co-star on the popular television series Ugly Betty recently admitted to journalist Barbara Walters that she often underwent Botox injections. Williams calls the injections a miracle drug, being amazed at how impressive the results were without the need for surgery or cutting. She was quick to say that she 'loves' the drug.

All in all, what's not to love? Williams is as beautiful as ever and certainly looks nowhere close to her 40 plus years of age. She is successful, talented and one of the most beautiful women in the business. While many actresses and women in general in Hollywood are denying having work done and sneaking through the rear exits of the surgeons office in distant locations, Williams sits comfortably at home, basking in the fantastic results of her injections. She is among a very small portion of celebrities who will confess to cosmetic procedures, though she is only a small minority of the group of celebrities who have them.

Many women take inspiration from people like Williams. Rather than denying that she ages like everyone else, she embraces that fact and admits fully to having injections to fight wrinkles. Many people have an unrealistic image of celebrities, feeling that they wake up every day of their lives looking as beautiful as they did while in their twenties. That perception is perpetuated by many celebrities' blatant refusal to admit to cosmetic work.

Vanessa Williams is a great example of the result of Botox. When performed properly by a licensed cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist, Botox is a safe way to eliminate wrinkles and to highlight the face. Williams has certainly done a great service by admitting to the injections and has helped people see that proper Botox can improve the skin without paralyzing the entire face. Many people have a skewed view of Botox because they only hear about people who have had the procedure done improperly, and Williams is helping to show the true face of excellent Botox injections.

How To Be Successful With Your Cosmic Order

By Carole Stracken

Have you heard about the latest fad - Cosmic Ordering? It seems everyone wants to make a cosmic order but what is the truth behind it?

Nearly everyone has heard of the secret and the law of attraction. However, you may like to know that cosmic order is more specific and permits you to have that which you desire.

If you could order anything up in your life, what would it be? Would you want the perfect mate, a large bank account or perfect youthful vigor and health? All of these are available just for the asking if you use the cosmic order system.

It really does seem to work, according to the multitudes of individuals the world over who swear by it as well as a large number of celebrity endorsements. Nevertheless, what really happens when you place your cosmic order? Moreover, why does it not work for everyone?

The process is quite simply yet many individuals fall short of having that which they desire. There are many reasons for this. One issue is holding on to any old belief system that there is not enough to go around.

There is abundance everywhere and yet some never find it no matter how hard they search. They believe that anothers success takes away from them because theres only a limited supply. They become envious and angry with others that seem to have it all.

The rewards they desire are then blocked by this belief. It sends a message to their brain once more that there is never enough for them to have any. This brain energy then signals the Universe, which in turn fulfils their prophecy.

Another reason that many are not successful deals with holding on to a belief that there is not enough for them to share in the success. They may get excited for others; however, they hold no such belief for their own success. For instance, you may overhear someone buying a lottery ticket say, I never win anything. This helps them not to become so disappointed, since they hold a belief that some higher power will fulfill their desire for success by acknowledging their own current lack.

This will never work, since you can make your cosmic order and determine your destiny by making a simple phrase to accompany the cosmic order.

third reason that many dont get what they want is that they truly dont believe they deserve it. The belief that it is wrong to desire a better life, the belief that they have no value or the belief that they arent special enough to be able to order anything they want blocks them from the marvels of what can happen when you make a cosmic order.

If you look at your beliefs and find you fall into this category, you need to do some serious reprogramming. You have to eliminate the old belief system and begin to see yourself as the unique and important person you are. You are no better than anyone else, but theres nobody better than you.

All earthly creatures have a divine right to health, happiness and wealth. Nevertheless, you have to release your past and believe in receiving that which you deserve and desire.

When you have the right tools, this is an easy thing to do. The concept has been proven by scientific studies. Quantum physics reveals a smidgeon of the common sense behind the secret that has escaped man for centuries.

You can successfully draw your desires to yourself by using the cosmic order. However, you must stay positive to the possibilities. Helpful resources include self-hypnosis, meditation and making positive affirmations.

You can instantly change the state of your mind in order to communicate with the universe, by using special sound frequencies known as binaural tones, which are recent developments in sound technology. You notice quicker results by using this technology to aid you in clearing away your old beliefs much quicker.

At one time, the cosmic order system was only for mystics or true believers of a religious sect, today it is for everyone that believes it is possible. Science unites with the wisdom of the ancients to help you accomplish whatever your heart desires.

By Leonard Dawson

Breast implants are one of the most common cosmetic procedures performed on females. While many women across the world have this procedure, most news certainly seems to revolve around celebrities who have undergone the procedure. One of the reasons for this is that we are simply a celebrity obsessed culture. We look to television, music, and movie stars as examples of what a woman should look like, and we find many different examples. There are many celebrities who have had breast implants for various reasons, and here is a look at just a few of them.

A unique choice of breast implants has been chosen by Victoria Beckham of the Spice Girls and wife to England footballer David Beckham. While many celebrities choose to have subtle implant procedures, Beckham chose rather large implants that are quite prominent for her body type. Many surgeons as a rule would most likely advise against the procedure, yet Beckham has managed to create a very stylish and elegant look for herself, proving that sometimes the success of the surgery is also about the personality and style of the patient.

Demi Moore is another example of a celebrity who has undergone the breast augmentation procedure. Moore has had multiple surgeries, changing from smaller to larger breasts on a few occasions. She has always chosen her surgeons well, however, and her breasts have always suited her natural physique, which is the true hallmark of quality augmentation.

Perhaps no celebrity breast augmentation has garnered more attention lately than that of Christina Applegate. Upon learning that she had a tumour in one of her breasts, the star of many hit television shows opted for a double mastectomy augmentation surgery during which she received double implants. The procedure provided great medical benefit to Applegate, and has left her looking as stunningly gorgeous as ever. One of the biggest benefits has been that it has changed the public opinion about breast augmentation. Applegate's case has helped people realise that breast augmentations hold a very valid place in society and can offer great benefit to people who have cancer or are at high risk of developing it.

Celebrity breast augmentations are extremely common and whilst each individual case is different, it can be safe to say that all of the celebrities listed here found the best surgeons for their situation.
