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.

Esposito began to shred the NHL record book in Boston, prompting Bruins fans to display car bumper stickers that read Jesus Saves; Esposito scores on the rebound. 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.

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. He had slowed somewhat, but was still enough of a valuable player and team leader that he was named the Rangers' captain. He remained a very dangerous scoring threat until the end of his career.

After his retirement in'75, he remained active in hockey. 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. Esposito now hosts a daily hockey radio show on XM Radio, and has even done some acting appearing in a recurring role as a fire chief on the TV series Rescue Me.

Ignore Your Incredible Mind Power If You Don't Want A Life!

By Charlie Walbank

You probably didn't know it, but your mind is actually far more powerful than you think. Like a magnet, what it sees and thinks it will eventually bring to itself. This is something called the 'Law of Attraction'. What the law of attraction basically states is that if you believe something, it's going to happen. If you want a better life than the one you have now, you have to be able to envision it, feel it, 'be in it' in your mind's eye, and think about it as though it were really happening. Eventually, it will. It's going to take some practice, likely, but if you persist, you will succeed. Truly, your mind is very powerful and an absolutely amazing instrument of creation.

Every one of us is born with this mind power, but most of us don't believe that it can actually help us or even that it exists. It's been proven, for example, that humans only use about 10% of their current brain capacity for power; now, think about that for a second. That's crazy, but it's probably true. Most of us just stick with the 'tried-and-true,' and never try to break out or our comfort zones. And what that can mean is that we have trouble in life that we simply think 'just is.' We think negatively because we don't think that what we want can truly be ours. So basically, we begin to think that the negative circumstances we now attract are simply all there is. However, if we only understood that we're attracting what we're experiencing, we would see our own thoughts happening before our eyes.

The truth is, what happens in your 'reality' actually happens in your mind first. Whatever you've gotten in life so far has been as a result of the power of your mind. Many people say that absolutely everyone has psychic and extrasensory abilities, but that sounds pretty specialized and 'out of this world.' What it really shows is that those who have these abilities have learned how to tap into mind power at its fullest. If you want something, you first have to think about it and then it will eventually appear. And this is true whether you want the best or the worst. If you always think about the worst, in other words, that's what's going to happen.

You can begin to increase your mind power to the positive. One of the ways you can do this is by using visualization. This is a very intense technique that will help you tap into your mind's current power. It may actually help you flip the switch in terms of gaining more power.

Visualizing simply means that you sit down and think of images and pictures inside your head, of things that you want. These images can eventually be brought to life in reality, but first you have to start with yourself and ultimately, your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind is more powerful than anything else, in that it can really bring your visualizations to life like nothing else. The images in your mind have to be positive because that's the only way they can get to you. You need to think about how you want your life to be before you try to do this, though.

It may be a help to you if you write everything down on a piece of paper, either in bullet format where you simply list the things you want to achieve, or by creating a story whereby you are the central player, living your best life. What goals do you have for yourself? Write those down so that you have something to shoot for. Then, create visions around those goals. When you write things down, it makes it hard to forget what you've visualized and it also helps cement them in your subconscious mind as well.

You can also use affirmations to increase your mind power. Affirmations are simply little, encouraging positive sayings that you can save yourself throughout the day. It can be about anything. For example, if you want to lose 10 pounds, you can say something to the effect of, 'I'm losing the extra weight effortlessly and easily.' As you continue to say this, you may notice that truly, the weight is actually coming off pretty easily. It'll just naturally start to happen. And it doesn't matter if it's something you're not used to it first. If you do it for 28 days, you'll notice that it'll start to become a habit.

There's also another technique you can use to develop your mind's power, called 'entrainment.' Entrainment is simply synchronization of brain waves using different frequencies through audio technology. Our brains are naturally attuned to doing several different things, one of which is to heal themselves. You can tap into this power even more by using this kind of advanced audio-based technology. You can also enhance your memory and bring into effect the psychic powers you have, which already exist. This is a pretty advanced procedure, but it does work.

Hypnosis, too, can be used to tap into your subconscious mind. For example, hypnosis has worked wonders for those who want to quit smoking. These people simply are able to go into a session whereby they use the services of a trained hypnotist, and then they are slowly led to the suggestion that they don't want to smoke anymore, that it tastes bad, it's not something they desire, and so on. After several sessions, many smokers do indeed quit and they don't have the desire to do so anymore. It's pretty simple; they simply got someone who was trained in hypnosis to lead them through the mental blocks they had toward smoking, so that they could tap into their subconscious minds and ultimately quit.

So as you can see, everyone has this type of mind power, but they just have to believe in their abilities. It may not happen overnight, but you can change your life and turn things around if they're not going so well for you. To do this, you have to be able to direct your energies into the universe and know that what comes back to you is what you have manifested. It all starts with your subconscious mind, and only you can harness the mind power you have. How much do you think you have?

Bengals Blast Struggling Bears

By Ross Everett

Former Chicago Bears running back Cedric Benson got revenge on the team that let him go in the best possible way. Benson amassed 189 yards rushing and led his new team, the Cincinnati Bengals, to a 45-10 rout over the visiting Bears on Sunday. Carson Palmer threw for five touchdowns with no interceptions in the blowout victory.

The Bengals also made short work of the NFL pointspread, easily covering as +1' home underdogs. Cincinnati improved to 4-3 against the number while Chicago evened their ATS mark at 3-3. The 55 combined points sailed OVER the posted total of 42'.

A smug Benson described his feelings after the win:

"Everybody knew it was going to be an emotional day. Everybody knew. What a wonderful day and a wonderful thing, to go out there and strut your stuff."

Despite the evidence to the contrary, Benson downplayed the motive of revenge:

"I continue to be as graceful as I can be. I'm not shoving anything in anybody's face. Like I say, it wasn't a revenge day for me. I just wanted to take advantage of the opportunities."

He said his biggest problem was trying to keep his emotions in check and play under control:

"There were a few times where I may have gotten a little too hyped up, a little too antsy. A couple of drives, I found myself having to calm myself down and gather my emotions to stay poised. Once I got past that, we were good to go. Keep it rolling."

Bengals' receiver Chad Ochocinco had 10 catches for 118 yards and two touchdowns. He shared his thoughts postgame:

"I don't understand why it went this way today and why it didn't go that way last week or the week before that. The offensive line played unbelievable. For Ced to run the way he did today and for us to be able to throw, we could have done what we wanted to do."

Chicago gave up more points than in any game all season, a fact that left defensive end Alex Brown looking for answers:

"That was pretty embarrassing. It's embarrassing to come out and play like that. I tip my hat to their whole team. Cedric ran the ball like crazy. They did whatever they wanted to do."

The Bengals will enjoy a bye week before hosting the Baltimore Ravens on November 8. They'll then play two games on the road at Pittsburgh and Oakland. Chicago will try to get back on track this Sunday as they host the Cleveland Browns. They'll host the Arizona Cardinals the following Sunday before heading west for a Thursday night game against the San Francisco 49ers on November 12.

Use Vintage Pin-Up Girls to Make Your Checks More Glamorous

By Alan Plastin

Absolutely nothing says glamour like the pin-up girls of vintage Hollywood. If you would like to make your personal bank checks a little more glamorous, then you should really think about getting retro-inspired pin-up girls checks. Aside from the fact that they look great, your checks will definitely be remembered.

In the 1940's, WWII was raging, but Hollywood was alive and kicking. The pin-up girls of that era graced magazines, calendars, and even playing cards. They were beautiful, glamorous, and sexy. With perfect hair and makeup, gorgeous clothing, and secret smiles, they were more than just sex symbols-they were icons. Men wanted to be with them, and women wanted to be them.

Not all pin-up girls were movie stars and not all movie stars were pin-up girls. In fact, it took something a little more than beauty and sex appeal to be considered a pin-up girl. A woman had to have glamour and a quality about her that set her apart from everyone else. She also had to be accessible, which was one of the reasons why pin-up girls became so popular-their images were mass-produced and had wide appeal.

One of the earliest pin-up girls was Betty Grable. You could find her posters "pinned up" in soldiers' lockers during the War. Another popular pin-up girl was the Gibson girl, who was actually an illustration. Other fashionable pin-up girls of the 1940s consisted of Jane Russell, Carmen Miranda, Lana Turner, Veronica Lake, Rita Hayworth, and Ava Gardner. In the 1950s, Betty Page, became one of the most popular pin-up girls of all time. Today, merchandise containing her image can still be bought, even though many of her modern fans were not even alive during her glory days.

While there are still pin-up girls these days, some fans argue that these modern women lack the glamour and style of the women in the past. Although posters can be purchased with images of the majority of popular female movie and televisions stars and models, the Golden Age of the sexy sirens of the past is over.

If you would like your personal bank checks to have something a little different and you love the 1940s and 1950s, then the pin-up girls checks and their vintage feel might be right up your alley. They come in 4 rotating images so each lovely girl will be different from the one before her. Not only do these checks look great, but they can be conversation pieces, too, and they can say a lot about your personality and individuality.

If you buy your checks online from a site you can save as much as 50% off what your bank might charge you. You will also have a wide range to select from. You can anticipate receiving your checks in about 5 days. Don't forget to have your routing number and checking account number available when you place your order.

How To Take Care Of Your Golf Bag

By Joe M. Randolph

Golfing takes up plenty of time in some people's weekly schedule. Besides going to the course itself, they spend much time outside buying the things that they need like apparatus and clothing.

One of the crucial components of the basic equipment to play golf is the golf bag. A golf bag is very important because it is where you keep everything; from the essentials to the extra apparel. However not many people know how to take care of their golf bags.

Golf bags are nowadays not only limited to golfers but also too many other groups of people, especially college students. Golf, which was once just limited to playing inside the golf course, is now even played in colleges. But sometimes people just congest their bags with whatever possible, and some even put in their books and college things inside, and use them as their college backpack alternatives.

The Different Types

Basically there are 3 sorts of golfing bags, which are staff bags, carry bags and cart bags. A staff golfing bag is a massive bag made from leather or other prime quality material that can accommodate all of the 14 clubs in a set, and it includes many segments to put other tools and equipments. A cart bag is a golfing bag which is smaller and has less segments, and used on carts. A carry bag is the tiniest type which is made of cheaper materials and only can accommodate the basic appliances.

What Should You Carry?

Basically a golf bag is where you keep the necessary equipment you would be using for the game; such as the balls, the clubs and the clothing. When we say the golf club, it would comprise all sorts of the club; woods, irons, wedges, hybrid and putters.

Some people keep other things such as drivers, the grit and so on. And for the night owls who like to play golf in the dark, they keep a travel light, or a simple torch-light.

Besides that, some also keep their tees or other golfing shirts and track pants. Otherwise if you do not desire to do that, you can have another bag to keep all these. Almost all of the golfing bags come with padded segments so the clubs wouldn't annoy the clothing that's in the bag, or perhaps crumple them. But the lower-end ones don't have many segments and are restricted to just a few things.

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. Oakland is +16' road underdogs with the total set at 42'. 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, with New York a -3' home favorite and the total set at 40'.

A Different Look At Wedding Photography

By Roger Wong

Wedding photography includes pictures of the couple before the marriage, as well as coverage of the actual event and reception. The two approaches in wedding photography are traditional and photojournalistic. Traditional wedding photography consists of classically posed images. In this approach, there is much interaction with the photographer on the day of the wedding. In the photojournalistic approach, the images recorded are much more subtle with less photographer interaction. These two approaches are the two extremes of photographic styles. Most of the modern day photographers' fall somewhere between these two styles.

When you are hiring a bridal photographer to shoot your special day, there are a few things you should keep in mind. Every photographer possesses an individual style. There is some research you should do before you decide who you want photographing your wedding. It is recommended to start looking for the right photographer well ahead of time. If you are hiring a wedding photojournalist to cover your wedding, it is recommended that you focus more on the creative side than on the business process involved. One shouldn't be concerned about comparing various package details or the number of prints he is going to get. Once you have chosen a photographer for the job, take care of all minute details then and there so that the photographer you hired is not preoccupied about with thoughts of collecting his payment, on the wedding day.

Always remember NOT to give constant direction to the professional you have hired. The biggest pet peeve of wedding photographers is that they are given instructions by the brides, grooms, parents, relatives and everyone on the wedding party. No photographer likes to be directed as to what to shoot and how to do it. The more there's third party interaction, the less creativity in the photography. Sometimes the relatives and friends are so preoccupied in instructing the photographer that they almost miss the entire wedding.

Go for trust on your big day with your photographer is one of the best tips to give. Trust allows natural expression to flow from everyone. After all you want the day to flow with joy and fun so trust is a prerequisite for that to happen.

Most importantly, do not starve your photographer. Your photographer will need to eat, no matter how professional and hardworking they are. This should be the last person you want to starve at your wedding. And try not to give your photographer a very long list of things to do. He might not get what you actually hired him to do.

Steelers Send Vikings To First Defeat Of Season

By Ross Everett

Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings are undefeated no more. The Pittsburgh Steelers' used a couple of big plays from their defense in the fourth quarter to break open a close game and defeat the Vikings by a final score of 27-17. Favre put up decent yardage in the loss, throwing for 334 yards but had no touchdowns and an interception. The defending Superbowl Champion Steelers improved to 5-2, while the Vikings are now 6-1.

NFL pointspread players who backed the Steelers as -6 home favorites were rewarded with the cover. Pittsburgh had only covered one of their first six games heading into the contest, and the win improved their record against the number to 2-5. Minnesota dropped to 4-3 against the spread with the setback. The 44 points scored went UNDER the posted total of 46'. It was only the Vikings' second UNDER of the season against five OVERS, while the Steelers have gone OVER in four of their seven games.

The Steelers largely shut down Minnesota's rushing game, holding Adrian Peterson to 69 yards. Pittsburgh safety Ryan Clark underscored his team's dominance against the run:

"That's the biggest point of the game. You have the best running back in the world and you don't give it to him. They're saying they can't beat us running, and that's a major statement when you have the guy they have back there."

Favre gave a feeble justification for the loss in his postgame interview:

"There were a lot of what ifs, a lot of reasons we didn't win. The red zone was one of them. They're physical, and they were as good as we thought they'd be. ... When I came here and looked at our schedule and saw the Steelers game, I went, 'Oh-h-h.' "

Favre has only thrown three interceptions in a Vikings' uniform, but #3 was a costly one as it was returned by Steelers' Keyaron Fox for a touchdown to put the game out of reach as Minnesota was driving for a potential game tying field goal. Afterwards, Fox recalled the play:

"Brett tried to force it in there and the running back bobbled it and slipped out of his hands and it fell into my lap. I had just run across the field after Peterson and I was winded, so it felt like it was 100-plus yards."

The Vikings now face another big game next week as they head to Favre's old stomping grounds in Green Bay for a battle with the Packers. It'll be Favre's first appearance at his old home in an enemy uniform. The Vikings are a +3 road underdog with the total set at 48. The Vikings will then have a bye weekend before hosting the lowly Detroit Lions on November 15. Pittsburgh will enjoy a bye week this week before returning to action on Monday, November 9th facing the Denver Broncos on the road.

Make Money From Sports Betting

By Louise Jackson

I am going to speak for a few moments about sports betting and whether or not it can be used for a profit. There are many betting systems being sold throughout the internet promising easy money but unfortunately this isn't the case.

I wish that sports betting were as easy as some of the sales pages that I've seen make out but it isn't, it is very difficult. The first thing that you need to do if you are going to bet on sports is to pick a sport which you have knowledge about.

Your chance of winning will obviously increase if you know details about who/what you are betting on. Also, if you have knowledge of the game you are betting on, you will also have better chances, as you will know how the individuals/teams are doing at the moment.

The next step is to correctly figure out your odds. The majority of systems focus on bets on games' outcomes and different amounts to put your odds up.

It is also vital that you manage your money. Mainly, betting systems will have you increasing your bets each time you lose. This method is known as the Martingale System, it can give good results providing it is used properly enough.

Unfortunately though, a lot of people have ended up losing all their money because of the martingale system because they found it impossible to walk away. It is so addictive and it makes it even worse when you lose more money and for this reason I recommend approaching it with caution.

An example of a great sports betting system available to buy is sports betting champ. It uses really good mathematics and logic to help you to achieve the best bets you possibly can.

There are other sports betting strategies that I have used but sports betting champ is the best. It is more expensive than most of its rivals at $197 but you get what you pay for and all of the correct principals that you will need to follow to make money from sports betting are covered in the guide.

Free Easy 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.

Before you join a pay ultimate guitar tab website, you should first try out and download several of the free services until you find one that is best for you. These pay sites have a huge selection but that also comes with a very steep price.

Learning the chords and scales will help you learn the guitar quickly while building much needed finger strength at the same time. Learning how to play a song using an ultimate guitar tab sheet is an even quicker method to use.

When you first try learning to play a song with an ultimate guitar tab book, you can learn most songs in a few hours. This depends on how difficult the song is and how long you have been playing.

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.

The ultimate guitar tab notes will help a person learn a song very quickly by showing them the exact notes and what strings to strike. By just using the chords and sheet music, you will have a general idea of how the song is suppose to sound. Learning all of the chords and scales is very time consuming and a much slower way to learn how to play the guitar.

Another advantage of ultimate guitar tab is that you can see precisely what notes are being played in a particular song. You can play any song precisely as it was written. Playing a song with just the chords rather than the precise notes makes the tune sound similar, but not precisely how it was written.

Some people are able to find those rare notes that are hidden behind bass and drums, but most people can not. If you learn from an ultimate guitar tab sheet you are able to pick out all of those notes that most people cannot hear otherwise.

You can really impress any person you like by playing the notes to their favorite song to them in a couple of minutes. There is not any faster and simpler free way to teach yourself how to play the guitar than by learning an ultimate guitar tab transcription.

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.

Picking Out a Swimming Pool Cleaner

By Judy Mott

Who knows where to start when shopping for the right swimming pool cleaner? The most popular deciding factor for many shoppers is price, though that priority will still not narrow the choices down to a handful. Prices can range up to a few thousand dollars or be as low as a few hundred. There are other things to consider, though, to make your choice.

Water purity seems to be the vital front-burner issue with most pools. Pool owners need to be sure to keep pH and chlorine at the right levels. Ordinarily, a water testing kit and a chemical treatment are the way to keep the water cleaned and treated every day.

Other important maintenance tasks involve checking filter pressure, pumps and hoses, and the strainer basket. Additionally, the pool owner should use either brushes or an automatic pool cleaner to keep the pool liner and walls clean.

These simple routine tasks might become a bit of a tall task for the pool owner. The luxury of an automatic pool cleaner, however, makes it a little easier to breathe in the short term and to swim in a well-maintained pool.

It is important to know what your limits are and hire someone to take care of your pool when you cannot properly do the job. If you are not honest with yourself and your pool suffers from neglect, you could face serious health problems for swimmers and damage to your pool.

Determining the major kind of debris that will affect your pool is a good start point for choosing a swimming pool cleaner. If you live near a lot of trees, the debris will mostly consist of twigs, leaves and random natural objects like acorns.

Your budget and your desirable work load will decide whether a manual or an automatic cleaner is best for you. Manual cleaners (which also require more manual labor) will get your pool cleaner. There is also more cost associated with using automatic swimming pool cleaners.

Suction side or pressure side varieties are the norm for automatic swimming pool cleaners. Top-of-the-line machines called robotic cleaners can be programmed and map out an entire cleaning grid for you. The catch is that they cost more than $1,000.

Solo Or Multiplayer Casino Games

Internet casinos resemble the La Vegas casinos in may ways. They use intense-audio effects, a large selection of games, and flashy graphics. On the Internet though you have a choice between multiplayer or solo casino games.

In Las Vegas there are also games that are played with other players such as poker, or the games that one plays by themselves such as the slots. However, with an Internet casino you normally get to choose how you play. Numerous games are played solo but other games are played with multiple players.

Games Played Solo

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.

Casino Games Played Multiplayer

There are numerous casino games that are designed for multiplayer for you to play. These games let you socialize with others, while you display your abilities for the game.

Most Internet multiplayer casino games also have a chat room available. This chat room give the players a chance to have conversation similar to what they would have in a Las Vegas casino. This makes the whole experience seem more realistic and helps you check out the competition since you can't see them. Slots even become interactive with having the chat room to use to talk to people playing it.

Multiplayer versions are offered for most of the kinds of casino games. From bingo to blackjack to poker, you will see these versions offered so that you have the ability to interact with other people, that are playing the games too.

Multiplayer versus Solo Casino Games

Multiplayer versions of casino games give you a different type of enjoyment for your experience in Internet gaming. You can even make new friends with playing these games. Having this adds to the Internet playing enjoyment.

Internet gaming is fun and convenient, some of the Las Vegas enthusiasm for the games are lost though, if you only play solo ones. It may be faster to play the solo game which you can play at your convenience, but you will get more social interaction with the multiplayer games.

You will have to see if the rooms are open for the mulitplayer games. Most of the online casinos have more than enough rooms available so you will not have to wait that long if all are full. It is well worth the wait though, because it is so much fun to play the multiplayer games, due to the social interaction.

A Guide To Casino Special Offers

Online casinos are increasingly popular, with gamers choosing these virtual casinos over brick and mortar establishments in many cases for their convenience. Even through online casinos are so popular, competition in this industry is stiff, with casinos always in search of promotions that will attract gamers to their casino sites.

How Special Offers and Promotions Work

These casino special offers can be a boon to gamers and casinos alike. The casinos are happy to get new players' business and of course, gamers are thrilled with the free games, sign up bonuses, extra winnings and other casino promotions that they benefit from.

Casino special offers vary from one online casino to the next, as do the terms and conditions of these offers. Gamers should always read the terms and conditions in their entirety to make sure that they fully understand the conditions of these promotional offers. Not all of these promotions are what they seem - and the last thing you want is to enter some sort of agreement which benefits only the casino.

Types of Casino Special Offers

You'll see a wide variety of different online casino promotions out there, but the ones which follow are the most commonly used by casinos in the effort to retain existing players and attract new business.

- Sign up bonuses: These are bonuses which are offered to players who are new to a given casino. When first signing up for an account at the casino, new players may be given what is essentially free money to play with. The average signup bonus is around $100, though players are usually given this amount in installments over a few month's time.

- Percentage bonus: A percentage bonus involves the casino matching (up to a specified limit) the money that you deposit into your account. This percentage may be anywhere from 10% and up, though is typically above 50% and sometimes as high as 500%.

- Matching bonus: A matching bonus is a type of casino special offer where the casino will match the amount that you put into your account. As with percentage bonuses, there is almost always a limit on how much the casino will match.

- Reload offer: This is a type of bonus which may be offered to existing players rather than new ones. These bonuses involve the casino "reloading" the player's account with money to encourage them to keep coming back and gaming at the casino.

- Preferred deposit: This is a type of casino promotion which encourages gamers to use a specific type of payment, usually through some sort of percentage bonus for this form of payment.

- High roller reward: These promotions are designed to reward gamers who make large deposits. Typically, this is in the form of a matching or percentage bonus, though this depends on the casino.

These are just a few of the more common casino special offers and casino promotions you may find online - there are many others which you'll come across when looking into different online casinos. Casino special offers are intended to get the interest of players and there are many of these promotions which represent a good deal to players. Just make sure to read the terms and conditions carefully to make sure that what sounds like a great value actually is before you commit to anything.

Win Big by Playing Progressive Jackpots

Playing Progressive jackpots is far more exciting than playing for a standard payout. These money pots can contain hundreds of thousands of dollars and it all goes to the lucky winner. 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

Make sure you do your homework and understand the casino game and the rules regarding progressive jackpots before you decide to play. 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.

Why Jump Higher?

By Lindsay Barnes

Some people seem like they were just born to play sports. They appear to have a natural ability in using things like tennis or badminton rackets and baseball bats, they seem to always hit their target or goal easily, they seem faster, and they look like they have been blessed with an incredible physique that seemed to have been crafted effortlessly. They were the ones who were always picked first for the team back in school, the ones who are living an incredibly active lifestyle today, joining marathons and the like, and the ones who look like they are the ones lording it over the gym and running miles and miles on the treadmill without their lungs exploding.

With such people around, you might become a little bit discouraged about your own athletic abilities, especially if you are part of a sporting team, like maybe a local basketball or volleyball team, and think you have a long way to go before being one of its stand-out players. But feeling helpless and defeated won't get you anywhere. Instead you should focus on honing the skills you need and studying the principles each game in order to improve your skills. As a basketball or a volleyball player, you have a lot of skills to develop, one of them being the ability to jump higher.

Jumping higher is a valuable skill in these two sports. In volleyball, with the ball being able to sail into the air way above everyone's head, seemingly out of reach, you can hit it back if you can get high up into the air. In basketball, the basket is situated high above the court, and not everyone can make a slam dunk. When you learn how to jump higher, you can make these winning shots. Learning to jump higher, of course, is not just for you to become an excellent athlete. Being a high jumper entails work, and this work involves a lot of workouts that can help you become faster, stronger, and fitter, in turn making you healthier.

You can learn to jump higher using a variety of methods which you can learn from your fitness trainer or coach; all you have to do is indicate that you want your training regimen modified in order to make your body do higher jumps. You can also look up videos and resources online that can help you learn how to jump higher.

Remember that learning to jump higher takes dedication and work. So don't be discouraged if results are taking a while. Just keep at it and soon, you'll notice a big difference in your game.

The Los Angeles Lakers Look to Repeat

By Herman Solomon

The Los Angeles Lakers made a statement last season. In the face of so many naysayers, Kobe Bryant proved that this team had what it takes to win a championship. Many fans and experts doubted Kobe Bryant once the Lakers lost Shaq.

Well, for one, they're the defending champions. They defeated the Orlando Magic with relative ease in the NBA finals, and looked very solid throughout the duration of the 2009 NBA playoffs.

It should also be noted that the only significant player the Lakers have lost is Trevor Ariza. While Ariza was a valuable role player in Los Angeles, he's not one of the team's stars, so all indicators would point to the notion that they should be okay without him.

Much of the Lakers' success last year should be attributed to a lot more than just Kobe himself. This was a team effort through and through.

Contributions from Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, Andrew Bynum, Trevor Ariza, Derek Fisher, and others made the Los Angeles Lakers a team with many dangerous weapons, and a team that no one wanted to face in the playoffs. This was an extremely deep team.

The Lakers are looking to repeat this season - their chances are very good. The last time a team repeated as champions were the Lakers 01' & 02'.

It's hard to repeat as champions in professional sports because players get hurt and more trades happen now then ever before. The Lakers still have Kobe Bryant and he is playing at an elite level.

As long as Kobe continues to play at this level, the Lakers will continue to be contenders for another championship.

Mind Over Matter - A Strange Myth?

By Jackie Traveller

Many people doubt the validity of claims that you can change your own circumstances easily. In fact, most people believe that your current lot in life is the one you are stuck with. Understanding what 'mind over matter' is all about will change your outlook on life.

The truth is, everything can be put down to mind over matter. We all have the capacity to master our own mind power. You just need to know how to do it.

One of the ways you can begin to develop using mind over matter is to practice turning your negative thoughts into positive affirmations. Spend some time thinking about what it means to control every aspect of your life with your thoughts. You could bring about a better job, more money, happier relationships, a healthier body and a happier disposition easily when you know how.

Another very simple way to begin using mind over matter is to start using affirmations. When you go to work and think silently to yourself, "I hate my job, my co-workers, and my boss", all you are doing is setting yourself up for disappointment.

If you say 'I have my job and I never have enough money', your sub-conscious mind will begin to make sure these things come true for you. Your actions are dictated by your thoughts and your choices are influenced by your beliefs. So if you believe these negative thoughts, they will very quickly become your reality.

Now imagine what power you could have by changing your own thought processes and beliefs. Imagine saying to yourself regularly 'I deserve a better job with much more money'. Say this to yourself firmly every time you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts. Your sub-conscious is listening and you will begin to reprogram it to accept these positive thoughts.

When your sub-conscious is aware of the positive reality you want, your choices will be influenced by more positive actions, which lead naturally to more positive outcomes.

Affirmations are an excellent way to begin the re-programming process. Take a moment to think about your current situation. What thought processes led you to make the choices you did? Did you accidentally sign the papers for so much debt? Did you get into your relationship by accident? Did you accept your current job by accident? Each of these choices was a result of your mind being programmed to believe that was what you needed at that time in your life.

Now think about what you want your future to look like. Mind over matter is about teaching your mind to create, look for and accept more positive results than the ones you've been accepting in the past.

This is because the sub-conscious mind becomes programmed by telling it what you want to believe over and over again. At first a person in such a negative relationship might think 'I'm not those things'. The thought doesn't feel right, but over time they begin to believe it and then they begin taking actions that reinforce that belief.

The mind can do amazing things. Scientists believe that humans use only 10% of their brain power. The remaining 90% is sitting latent in your skull, waiting for an opportunity to exert the power to create a life of abundance and joy.

Believing in yourself has never been easier, and neither has living a life full of abundance and joy. It's mind over matter!
