Howie, AJ and Nick – A Sure Fire Hit For The Backstreet Boys

August 20th, 2009
by Patrick Daniels

In 1993, the Backstreet Boys were considered to be just another boy bad that Lou Pearlman put together. The group consisted of five talented singers, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell. Although Kevin Richardson has decided to opt out of this album, to start up a family, his band members are still foreseeing a comeback somewhere in this singers future.

Once again the Backstreet Boys have worked together, minus Richardson, to bring us their seventh, and said to be best, album yet. “This Is Us” is scheduled to be released by RCA Records, in the European areas, on October 5th. The United Stated release, by Jive Records, is scheduled for the following day.

Trying to regain some of their lost momentum since their incredible Millennium album hit the charts in 1999 with hits like I Want It That Way and All I Have To Give, they are once again collaborating with producer Max Martin who was responsible for the I Want it That Way hit track.

They are not only collaborating with Max Martin, but have also sought help from producer and songwriter Red One who has been able to help Lady Gaga pull off some of her hit singles like Poker Face and Just Dance. Red One has helped the Backstreet Boys on This Is Us by producing the albums lead single entitled Straight through My Heart.

This band has experienced its share of ups and downs, and each of the band members has attempted a solo career, which also seems to have just been a fleeting thing. Overall this band keeps trying to reinvent and so far hasn’t really found their niche, but with thirteen top 40 hits and having sold over 100 million albums, they are definitely do for a hit album and word out there is that This Is Us is just the album to push them back up to the top of the charts once again. The best boy band of all time Backstreet Boys are back and better than ever.

Pinball Struggles To Survive In A Digital World

August 19th, 2009
by Ross Everett

Having survived a couple of World Wars, countless recessions, the indignation of lifestyle police, and most recently the video game phenomenon it appeared that pinball was just too tough to kill. Thats why it was a surprise when WMS Industries, the dominant player in the industry for the past decade and the maker of Williams and Bally machines, announced that it was getting out of the business several years ago. WMS wasn’t in any sort of financial peril, but rather they wanted to focus on their more lucrative slot machine and video poker business.

At one point, pinball dominated the arcade. During the mid to late 1970s and on the heels of the movie version of the Who pinball themed rock opera Tommy arcades nationwide featured row upon row of gleaming new machines from one of over a half dozen US manufacturers (with many others made worldwide). The first salvo of the video game industry was fairly innocuous”Pong didnt do much to dent pinballs popularity since it didnt exactly offer the same immerse challenge. The first challenge to the popularity of the pinball machine in the arcade began with Midways Space Invaders and Ataris Asteroids. These games could be played alone, and offered the same sort of escapism that pinball provided. For the arcade owner, these games took up less space, required less maintenance, and offered a higher customer turnover.

Pinball put up a good fight, and popular games continued to appear through the mid 1980’s. Several pinball games were actually spinoffs of popular video games–”Spy Hunter and Space Invaders and a number of not so good ones based on the Pac Man video games. For awhile, pinball and video games enjoyed an uneasy co-existence, much like Mac and Windows in the computer world.

In the late 1980’s, however, pinball began to lose its way. Gottlieb and others made simple, traditional games that just couldnt compete with their video counterparts. Bally and other manufacturers went the opposite route”by cramming so much onto a playfield that the game hardly resembled traditional pinball. Some of Ballys late 1980s games”with so much playfield gimmickry going on”were nearly unplayable. By this point video games had taken over the arcade. Some larger arcades continued to offer a few pinball machines to placate hardcores, while some eliminated pinball altogether.

Pinball began to experience a bit of a comeback in the 1990’s driven by well designed, enjoyable games that finally got the balance between traditional gameplay and modern technology right. Williams and Bally (whom WMS later acquired), along with Data East, were making the majority of new games and some would become classics. Pin-Bot, Earthshaker The Adams Family and Diner are among my favorites of this era. Articles started to appear in the traditional media about the durability and timelessness of pinball, about how the average pinball machine received much more repeat business than the average video game and about the devotion of the pinball player.

With the century drawing to a close, it seemed that the Williams/Bally outfit had found a niche and would be able to grind out pinball machines for the aficionados forever. The final nail in the coffin, however, was a lot of societal changes beyond their control. For one, video games and video arcades became less profitable as companies like Sony and Nintendo were able to transform a lot of the high end gameplay to the home platform. Meanwhile, trends like new urbanism,which saw a return to downtown storefronts and the growth of online shopping combined to hurt traditional shopping malls. Eventually the WMS corporate braintrust decided to pull the plug on pinball and concentrate on their highly profitable gambling machine business. From a business standpoint, it probably made sense but that didnt make it any easier for lifelong pinball enthusiasts to reconcile with.

So what now? Stern Pinball is still committed to building new games, and is starting to get some traction both among retail owners and home collectors. Still, it appears that the only hope for pinball players is that some effort will be made to preserve the machines that already exist. With the capital investment required for a new company to get into the business, its hard to envision any new manufacturers popping up.

Rollovers in Currency Markets

August 19th, 2009
by Ahmad Hassam

Rollovers are transactions in currency trading where an open position from one value date or settlement date is rolled over to the next value date or settlement date. Rollovers are unique to the currency markets. Rollovers represent the intersection of interest rate markets and forex markets.

Rollover rates depend on the difference between the interest rates of the two currencies in the pair that you are trading. Only remember that what you are trading is in fact the good old cash. Dont forget currency is money after all.

You should expect an interest gain/expense on holding a currency position over time. It is similar to earning interest on a bank deposit and paying interest on a loan. It is like having a deposit in a bank account when you are long on a currency. Its like take a loan from the bank if you are short.

Interest rate differential is the difference between the interest rates between the two currencies. You should think of the open currency position as one currency with the positive balance (the currency you are long) and one with negative balance (the currency you are short).

You should look for the base or benchmark lending rates in each country. The interest rates of two different countries apply because your accounts are in two different currencies. You can find the benchmark lending interest rates of different countries from any good financial website like the Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, CNBC etc.

The larger the interest rate differential, the larger the impact from rollovers! The narrower the interest rate differential, the smaller the impact of the rollovers! Rollovers are usually carried out by your forex broker if you hold an open position past the settlement date.

Some online forex brokers apply the rollover rates by applying the rollover credit or debit directly to your margin balance. Other forex brokers apply the rollover rates by adjusting the average rate of your open position. Rollovers are applied to your open currency position by two offsetting trades that result in the same open position.

Rollovers are applied to open position after 5.00 PM EST change in value date. Rollovers are not applied if you dont carry a position over the change in the value date. For day traders, who usually close their positions at the end of each trading day, rollovers do not apply. Rollovers only apply to your over night open position carried over to the next day.

Rollovers can earn you interest income if you are long the currency with the higher interest rate and short the currency with the lower interest rate. Rollovers will cost you money if you are short the currency with the higher interest rate and long the currency with the low interest rates.

Thriving During The Tough Economic Times

August 19th, 2009
by Jay Polmar

We are some of those who are prospering during these seemingly challenging times because we are driven with new business opportunities, increased revenues, things like new book deals, and stronger and healthier relationships that have more intimacy than we ever thought.

Why are we thriving, no matter what is going on in the world around us, while others seem to be challenged? The difference between those who are magnetizing their fair share of abundance to them, and those that are either only getting by or feeling stuck, is the vibration level ” the frequency at which their own energy vibrates. When we turn on a higher frequency in our inner worlds, our outer world must mirror that back to us in everything we do!

The body is very much like a radio tower constantly transmitting thoughts and feelings on a specific frequency into the Universe. The thoughts and feelings that you have mentally creates a vibration of energy that you send out throughout the universe. Then its reflected back to you by the Universe, producing results you can see, smell, taste and touch! Its an automatic manifesting machine and you cannot shut it off. It works according to the Law of Attraction and it will never stop working while you are still living and breathing. The only power you truly over it is to choose where to place your focus and your intention in this process ” in the HERE AND NOW!

“Every type of focus, intense thought, visualization, emotional imagination, intention, all sets energy into motion. Whether you know it or not, energy is all there is.” ~ Dr. Jay Polmar

If your body energy has been living in a heightened state of feeling free, abundant and in love with life as it is, you will attract all sorts of positive outcomes with effortless love in your life, you will attract the people and things you desire into your life.

If your body energy repeats daily feelings of being afraid, not having enough or being (in any way) needy, you will manifest experiences that are very hard. You do not want to focus in this direction, just release this old pattern of thinking and feeling, reprogram your vibration to FEEL alive and positive about everything in life! The key to being able to transform life is very simply to imagine it and walk into the frequency of a super positive way of thinking and feeling ” its that easy, and everything will follow that natural path that you are creating.

Yes, you are a supernatural, yet quite natural, magnet, attracting to a something you always focus on in your life; good or bad ” its up to you. Do you know how to shift from negative to positive and, to stay positive. Thats was success with this system brings.

If you are not getting what you want out of life, its time to transform your vibration! You already have all the tools you need to shift your vibration and harness your own powers to manifest ” 1) thought 2) vision 3) focus 4) feelings all you need is desire ” passionate desire and watch how the Universe is assisting you to naturally attract prosperity, better relationships, more opportunities, and everything else you really want.

If you order Dr. Polmars ” The Course on Money, you will receive the first 4 monthly supplements on The Millionaire Mindset, and a Copy of the Millionaires Ten Commandments and Money, Power, and Sex to complete your studies from Dr. Jay Polmar, whos earned millions during his life, but dedicated his life to helping others become millionaires.

NY Giants Beat Carolina On Last Second Fumble Return For TD

August 19th, 2009
by Ross Everett

The NFL couldnt have scripted a better ending to their first nationally televised Monday Night Football contest of the year. New York Giants rookie Tommie Hill returned a fumble 18 yards for a touchdown with 0:00 on the clock to break open a tie game and give his team a 24-17 victory over the Carolina Panthers in NFL preseason action .

Carolinas fourth string QB Hunter Cantwell was in a position where he just had to take a knee and run out the clock on first and 10 from his eighteen yardline. Instead, he tried to throw a pass only to have his arm hit forcing a fumble. Hill grabbed the loose ball and headed to the endzone for the shockingly bizarre finish and a Giants victory.

Tommie Hill was in shock as he spoke about his game winning touchdown return:

“I’ve never seen a game end like that, not that way. I’m just a rookie trying to make the team. Anything like that that helps the team win in turn helps me. It was just a fortunate situation and I made the most of it.”

Hill, an undrafted rookie out of Colorado State had already become a favorite of Giants fans due to his tenacious, high impact playmaking.

Carolina coach John Fox sounded bemused at his teams unusual loss:

“Kind of an interesting ending. Both sides have a lot of work, but we have time. We have three weeks to do it

Giants QB Eli Manning, who recently became the NFLs highest paid player, put a positive spin on his short night of work:

“We ran the ball really well, hit a couple passes and we got a touchdown. That is always the goal. We did a nice job with it, so I thought we were effective as the first group.”

Carolina will travel to Miami for a game next Saturday against the Dolphins. The Giants will head to Chicago to face Jay Cutler and the Bears. The Panthers will kick off the NFL regular season hosting the Philadelphia Eagles at home on Sunday, September 13th while the Giants will start their NFL campaign with a big divisional grudge match against the Washington Redskins.

Why Medication is Not the Answer For Anxiety Panic Attack Symptoms

August 18th, 2009
by Anne Torres

Even if you are healthy, coping with any of the anxiety panic attack symptoms initially could easily be one of the most frightening feelings anyone ever experiences ~ no matter what age, male or female.

Often the experience is enough to bring on the worry of having another panic attack, making the victim try to find any kind of anxiety attack panic treatment. The convenience of medication is often what people choose because it is thought to be more convenient and also because some victims are worried about facing their next panic attack without help. This is why a natural cure for panic attack is usually best.

The first medication usually prescribed to ward off anxiety panic attack symptoms are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) which greatly reduce the frequency of the panic attacks, but it takes several weeks from starting the medication to see any benefits.

Another medicinal option is benzodiazepines which are a lot faster in dropping the panic attack frequency. However, this benefit comes at a cost in that these drugs are well known to give many nasty side effects, and have to be taken throughout the day over a period of a few weeks.

Why then are doctors handing out prescriptions for SSRIs, benzodiazepines and other drugs that are used for anxiety attack panic treatment when they are costly, produce nasty side effects and are generally troublesome? Mainly because many patients regard them as the only answer to their problem ~ basically they are seen as a quick, easy fix.

Patients who have gone through anxiety panic attack symptoms often just need the reassurance that they will not fall over the edge ~ what they need primarily, more than just any anxiety attack panic treatment, is the assurance to get through another day.

Medicinal prescriptions often foster a feeling of dependency and take away the means to build up confidence and the drugs often make the victims think of the medicine as some kind of crutch that they totally rely on and that without the medicine they cannot deal with anxiety panic attack symptoms alone.

This problem is what should really worry both doctors and patients, even more than the nasty side effects. The drugs only provide temporary relief and if used constantly the victim will continue to worry for the rest of their lives that the panic attacks will return.

Another problem with medicinal remedies is that eventually the body will build up a natural tolerance so that with prolonged use the drug will become less effective and it will come as a huge shock to find that one day the crutch that was relied upon is no longer there.

All the reasons that I have outlined must surely confirm that natural cure for panic attacks should be given preference to medication. Obviously natural remedies do not give instant relief but when the benefits do start they will last indefinitely and by following this course patients will learn that they can overcome anxiety panic attack symptoms and regain their confidence alone.

Anyone can overcome the need to eliminate panic attacks without medicine. When patients realize there will be no more panic attacks they lost the fear thus reducing the threat of anxiety panic attack symptoms to nothing other than an awful memory.

Saskatchewan Survives Hamilton Comeback In Wild CFL Affair

August 18th, 2009
by Ross Everett

It was just a week ago that the Saskatchewan Roughriders blew a 22-0 first half CFL lead to the Edmonton Eskimos en route to a 38-33 loss. On Sunday afternoon, it looked for a moment like history was repeating itself. The Riders led 23-0 at halftime before the Hamilton Tiger-Cats came roaring back with 16 third quarter points. Hamilton would tie the score at 23-23 early in the fourth quarter before the hosts pulled it out with a late touchdown and field goal to win 33-23.

After the game, Roughriders coach Ken Miller talked about the importance of not blowing another big CFL lead:

“We didn’t want to do that again, “In the first half in particular it was sensational. In the third quarter we gave up some points … but overall our defence played pretty good.”

Hamilton head coach Marcel Bellefeuille said there was no moral victory in falling short after a big comeback:

“You’ve got to play 60 minutes to win in the CFL, you can’t play 30 minutes.”

An important component of the Roughriders victory was their improved rushing attack. Wes Cates becoming the first Roughrider to rush for more than 100 yards this season as he finished with 117. After the game, Cates spoke of his accomplishment:

“It was not as much for myself but more for the naysayers. Yeah I needed a big game like that to stop the rumours and stop people from talking bad about me.”

Saskatchewans defensive line also starred, completely shutting down the Hamilton rushing attack limiting the Tiger-Cats runners to a mere 31 yards on the ground.

Both Hamilton QBs struggled against the Saskatchewan defense. Kevin Glenn came in after the first quarter and finished the game 12-for-27 with 183 yards. starting QB Quinton Porter was 1-for-5 for only three yards before he was yanked.

The Tiger-Cats now have a bye week in which to try and regroup before they return to action August 29th on the road against the Edmonton Eskimos. Saskatchewan will head east to take on the CFL best Montreal Alouettes on Friday night.
