For many of us these days, it seems to be a steady stream of bad news coming from everywhere, and real solutions do not appear to be arriving in any form, anytime soon. It often seems like there is nothing we can do to contribute to a solution to some of the huge challenges we face in our nation today. Although it may not seem like it, this is really not new. In the history of our planet there has never been enough money, time, land, food, knowledge, and (fill in the blanks), to make life easy, and these times are no exception. The question for each of us is “what can we personally do about it?”

I believe that the first thing we can do as individuals, is to create an inner game of powerful thoughts and attitudes that bring forth new actions. This inner game change causes us to see the world more clearly, and to initiate actions that ‘walk the thought”. We cannot change the outer world without first changing our own inner world. Making this change inspires others, and engages a higher power in ways that we do not fully understand.

For example, if we would start each day with the thought that what we do personally can make a difference, and that we are not at the mercy of external circumstance, it could change our lives. We would see with clarity things that we could do to make the situation better, and would feel compelled to take action. This process would go on without conscious prompting.

For another inner game thought experiment, consider effective sports, military, or business teams. In an effective team, leadership naturally moves to the person with the best knowledge and skills, to apply to the task at hand. Well, what if we changed our inner game to look at our entire nation as one gigantic team whose mission it is to lift us out of these bad economic times? I mean, really see it that way. Accepting our role in this nation’s team would mean that solving some of our problems now involves you personally, and it would create an awareness that leadership responsibilities must now fall to each one of us, and not just our congress, or president.

I have tried to integrate into my life some rules that I have learned from my work in teams, manufacturing plants, board rooms, projects, and relationships. I offer them here because I believe that just picking one of them to work on, will generate enormous inner power, and if enough of us do things like this, we can create meaningful change in the outside world.

1. If it is to be, it is up to me. We can influence outcomes of the most complex problems through our thoughts and actions and we are responsible for contributing what we can.

2. Avoid negative people and circumstances. Look at what is creating negative thought spirals and eliminate them, replacing them with positive thoughts like gratitude.

3. Change the things we can control, no matter how small. We are not victims. Everyone can control something and do it with excellence.

4. Invest in your own future. Take responsibility for growth and self development in at least one area of your life. Look in the social, financial, physical, family, spiritual, mental, attitudes and relationship areas, and pick one to improve.

5. Before things get to be overwhelming, seek some help. Learn to pay attention to the stressors in your life and don’t let them get to the point of overload. There is always someone who can help.

6. Spend some time each day revitalizing the spirit. Find some quiet time, even if it is only a few minutes to rest your logical mental processes. Meditation, prayer, yoga, tai chi, and hobbies are all helpful activities.

7. Remove the sources of waste from what we do. Things that waste resources will distract us from our goals. Become skilled at finding and eliminating sources of waste.

8. Help others. Find a way to help someone else, even when you need help yourself. It is good for the soul, and those kindnesses are always returned.

9. Every day take a small step towards a goal. Create a vision for your future, set clear goals, and do not let setbacks deter you.

10. Attitudes and values are the most important determinants of the actions you take. You can change them to increase your inner game of personal power

Finally, these words from John Heider’s “The Tao of Leadership” are worth remembering:

If your life works, you influence your family. If your family works, your family influences the community. If your community works, your community influences the nation. If your nation works, your nation influences the world. If your world works, the ripple effect spreads throughout the cosmos.

If your little one has a birthday coming up soon, then you’ll want to make it extra special. These days, parties are a lot more elaborate then they used to be when we were kids. Your son or daughter expects a lot, and you don’t want them to be disappointed. That’s why you’ve got to plan ahead and pick a great theme for their party. There are endless choices, but if you aren’t able to think of a great theme then check out my suggestions below. Any of these themes will make the party planning process easy and your son or daughter, along with all of their party guests will love it.

1. Disney Princesses Party. This will be great fun for any little girls’ birthday party. You can make it a costume party, or you can just provide fun dress up costumes and jewelry for the girls to put on when they get to the party. Also be sure to make your home look as enchanted as possible with whimsical decorations in pastel pinks and blues. You can also throw some glitter on the table clothes and hang Disney posters up all around your home. And don’t forget to have a big tiara for your daughter to wear all day long.

2. Train Birthday Party. What little boy doesn’t love trains? Your son and all of his friends are sure to get excited with a train themed birthday party. This theme will also be incredibly easy to plan. You can be creative by making invitations that resemble real train tickets. As far as decorations, make sure to throw in lots of bright blues and reds. You’ll need streamers and balloons of course, and you’ll want to have some fake train tracks and maybe some train horns for the kids to play with.

3. Harry Potter Birthday Party. This will be a great theme for a little girl or a little boy’s birthday party. Make sure to rent a few of the movies and pick up some fun costumes. Load up on some wizard hats, capes and wands. It’ll also be fun to make a scavenger hunt for the kids to complete. This theme will also leave you with plenty of room for creative foods and beverages. Have the kids mix their own ‘potions’ with Jell-O, Kool-aid and gummy worms.

4. Pirate Birthday Party. This is another great party theme that will work for boys and girls. Load up on plenty of patches and swords. You can give them away in goodie bags or just let the kids put them on right away. Be sure to stock up on red and black decorations, as well as gold chocolate coins and plastic jewels. This party theme would also be great for planning a scavenger hunt. Just split the kids up into two groups and give them each a map with directions on how to find a hidden treasure.

No matter which theme you choose, just make sure to go all out with decorations, games and food. It’s sure to be a memorable night so take lots of pictures!

I remember years ago when I use to play the MVP baseball game for hours, literally I would spend a day on the game because I was so hooked to it. I believe this series started around 2003, and only got better ever since. They were the first one’s who really implemented the pitcher and batter technology that you see now in today’s video games.

But what happened to them? I always ask myself the same question. After reading some forums I noticed many people want this game back to! They stopped making any more versions after 2005, and I have no idea why. I believe they sold the rights to another company and they began making college baseball. Now college baseball is fun, but it is nothing like the MLB.

Unfortunately it looks like this gaming series is not going to come back anytime soon because it has been years since they took it off the market. Hopefully if they reconsider, they would release it all gaming systems such as xbox360, ps3, etc.

I believe if you like this game, you should try to contact the creators and get them to bring it back out hopefully for 2011, which in fact was a rumor I have been hearing but that’s neither here nor there. This game has to come back on the market! There are many good baseball games out right now, such as the show, but none very much like the MVP series.

If you want to play a recent version with players that are in the MLB now, all you have to do is download something called “Mods” and you will have the old graphics but with the updated players. Sure it is not the real thing, but it is as close as we can get right now.

This was the best baseball game for the true baseball fan so if they ever do decide to bring it back; it will be a wonderful and happy day for us avid baseball games!

We got to realize more than something here. Xbox 360 consoles, xbox games and everything related to the accessories for having such addictive experience needs someone in order for you to have such Xbox trilogy experiences. I know I had mine when I remembered the newest mimics of street fighter games with new similar concepts in graphics for the newest 360 consoles with such extraordinary video games. It was incredibly enlightening to see the games you played 10-15 years ago- completely change in general ways. The technology and man skilled for preparing and finalizing such games made history for Xbox 360 in many of our realistic minds. It was just meant to happen. So, it is still 2006 with almost a year now with such high in-demand console out in retail stores. People did run like crazy to get such experience and fun into their children room and into the household even for spouses. Yes, even many spouses bought them for their own husbands and wives- it was just to fun to missed even after coming out of work 8-10 hours a day and being stuck on traffic one and even two hours from arriving and leaving work.

Beautiful thing right now is that there is no excuse for getting the greatest Xbox 360 games in the United States of America for really, but really cheap bargain prices. Xbox 360 games are ruling the world in sales for console games still at our late year 2006. It is incredible the amount of xbox games you can find at retail prices all over, when you can really find them at 30-63% of the retail price. I am talking about high in-demand newly released games in brand new sealed conditions. It is true. You can find great bargains and great prices thanks to something called as wholesale. You can wholesale just about everything in town. You can even wholesale your pants at ebay and still make a buck or two if you have the right image in the auction and have such material cleaned with Clorox. But this is not the reality with xbox 360. Having a sense of humor in your quest for getting top-notch games or the finest new releases either on consoles or video games itself will not cut you a deal.

You need an xbox 360 wholesale list that will get you immediate savings and earn you great profits In the case of having a business online or offline. It is highly necessary to buy at lowest possible price, in order to sell as high as possible. The savings and the profits are both equally merged in the purchase, not in the sale. The same thing goes with Real Estate, you do not have the profit when you sell the house- you acquire profit once you purchase the asset. Anyone can sell xbox 360 and houses, but few can find the lowest cheapest prices for getting the best dollar on investment upon selling to the final consumer.

It is just the way it is. The majority of people do not know where to get the lowest possible prices for video games other than retail stores. That has to stop right now. I had a secret for years now. Many know that it is a mystery now. A lot of consumers are just saving thanks to my long-time secret now passed as a mystery and I will tell you everything about it soon.

If you have children — or simply don’t live in a cave — you’ve undoubtedly heard of the Nintendo Wii Video Game Console. Launched last year, the Wii has exploded on to the gaming scene, crushing it’s Sony Playstation 3 opposition.

Normally, video games are associated with couch potatoes and blamed as one of the causes of our rising childhood obesity problem. But, the Wii changed things up with their innovative, action-packed technology.

Not only did they add a physical element to their system, but they made it extremely easy to learn and use, opening their market up to everyone from children to grandparents and everyone in between.

The thing that makes the Wii so different is the controller. Instead of simply pressing buttons and not needing to move anything other than your fingers, the new Nintendo controller allows you to move your entire body to affect what you see on the screen.

For example, in one of their most popular titles, Wii Sports, you need to swing your controller to hit a virtual tennis ball just as you would swing a real tennis racket on the courts. This allows users to get actual physical exercise right in their living room while playing a video game and having fun.

With such a fun and new way to get sedentary people up and moving, some gyms have even begun setting up full Wii rooms where members can play and burn up to 125 calories per game.

Nintendo is going to take this trend one step further with their upcoming game, Wii Fit. Wii Fit will incorporate a “Wii Balance Board” that will sense the player’s full body motion, allowing for jumping, leaning, and endless other possibilities.

The game will be releasing in Japan in time for Christmas, but we’ll have to wait until early 2008 in the US. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a Wii now though and enjoy the Wii Sports games and other titles.

Having a “Wii Night” at home is a great way to spend some fun family time, while helping to keep everyone healthy and fit at the same time.

Of course, with all these benefits, the Nintendo Wii is still in high demand and will only get harder to find as the holiday season progresses. So, keep your eyes peeled next time you’re at Wal Mart or doing some Christmas shopping, and snag one up to get fit and fun!

Starcraft is one of the best selling and popular games of all time and has spawned games such as Warcraft whilst captivating and creating an entire generation of real time strategy gamers.

I first played Starcraft in 1999 and was hooked from day one. The incredible gameplay and challenging artificial intelligence had such an impact on me that I still play regularly.

I learnt to play the game with a friend who, in his great wisdom, told me that humans were the most destructive, cunning and ruthless of all the races in the universe and to succeed in this great game – we had to play the Terran (Human Exiles, who have been exiled from Earth by the ruling “Confederacy of Man” ) as opposed to the Insect like Zerg and the Psychic Humaniod’s called The Protoss.

For those that do not know the game, it is a real-time strategy game, set during a war between three races; The Terrans, Zerg and The Protoss.

The Zerg are creepy, insect like creatures, that have no other purpose in life, but to breed and consume. While Protoss are a humanoid type of freak of nature, with psychic abilities and dangerous technology. They are only interested in furthering their own way of life; and when Zerg finally falls, they will turn on the Terran.

When the first official expansion pack was released, I nearly wet myself with excitement. Broodwars introduced the Medic and the very under-rated air to air unit, The Valkyrie.

The Medic, as it’s name suggests, has the ability to heal surrounding personal; as well as restore mobility to locked down mechanical units and blind enemy mechanical units with an optic flare.

A great trick is to have an attack force of 50 Terran Marines and 25 Medics. Walk the medics in front, as they heal each other as soon as they take damage.
Research better armour and firepower at the engineering bay and upgrade as fast as possible.

In fact, I think that this is the key to surviving the first wave of a Zerg attack, which usually outnumbers you greatly, considering how fast those disgusting creatures reproduce.

I try and build two barracks and two engineering bays and then belt out as many upgraded marines as possible. Stick them in bunkers, with a supply depot directly in front of the bunker and you will be able to fend off even the most ferocious of onslaughts. Place 3 SCV (worker and builder) unit’s directly behind the bunker and have them continuously repairing the bunker. Your marines will make short work of most units.

Don’t forget to build as many missile turrets as possible, as they will both protect you from airborne attacks, as well as detect cloaked units.

Starcraft is a beautifully created and magnificently programmed real time strategy game and after 12 years of exclusively playing Terran, I have at least another 50 years of enjoyment to look forward to. With Starcraft 2 being released, make that 75 years.
