Joe Crede's Exceptional Fielding Skills

By Remy Marramores

Joe Crede has been magnificent at third base for the Twins in 2009. Not only is his fielding percentage the best in the AL, but he also has the least errors at the position. In addition to this, there's a stat called the UZR, which measures a player's effectiveness at a position relative to how many runs it costs his team. Crede's UZR here is best of breed.

Crede is a very valuable Minnesota Twin offensively. Relative to where he hits in the order, his numbers are solid to the point where any team would be happy to have such numbers later in the lineup. His fielding has been better though.

As far as the UZR is concerned, there's a more telling stat called the UZR 150. This essentially tells you how many runs a player has either saved or cost his team over the course of his last 150 games played at that position. Crede's UZR is unbelievable, somewhere between 25 and 30. This means he's saving the team a run once every 5 or 6 games. No one else comes close to this defensively in the AL, only Adrian Beltre, whose UZR is 10 less, between 15 and 20.

It'd seem that Joe Crede should be a shoe-in for the Gold Glove at 3B. All of his stats beat out the competition. Somehow, no one really seems to know what he's accomplished at the position.

Crede gets very little respect for what he does. He's a solid hitter and people recognize this, but virtually no one ever discusses his efficient play as a third baseman. He's simply been phenomenal this year.

There's no question that Crede should win the gold glove at third base this season, in my opinion. Looking at the stats, he dominates his competition in UZR, fielding percentage, and errors. I don't see why he wouldn't.

The Twins seemed to get snubbed for these awards every year. Save for Morneau's recent MVP award, there have been quite a few worthy fielders in recent years who haven't won the award. Castillo, Morneau, and Mauer, to name a few.

The voters for the award are far from objective, and this unfortunately shows. With a small market team like Minnesota, it's hard to get the "pull" that the bigger cities have.

Make Your Own Stained Glass Jewelry Boxes - The Perfect Craft For Kids

By Christine Pinkston

It is not that difficult to make stained glass jewelry boxes that will look just as beautiful as the genuine thing. It is a project that is perfect for the beginners in the handcrafting art.

The glass that is used on this project is rather small, and this will make it a very good beginner project. You can make the details on the glass very simple or highly detailed, as you want to decrease or increase the difficulty of the project.

The first thing to do is to sand the outer surface the stained glass jewelry boxes with a piece of light sand paper. Subsequently, carefully wipe the box with a damp cloth and remove the dust elements. Now let the glass jewelry boxes dry.

Now, you need to paint the box with your preferred choice of colors. You may use some faux finishing methods in order to make the jewelry box look pretty decorative. Next, you need to leave the surface of the jewelry box unpainted in the area the glass will go.

Next, you need to apply some polish as a layer on the painted stained glass jewelry boxes. Let them dry completely and sketch the desired design on a piece of paper. The paper needs to have the same size with the surface of the glass. Place it carefully under the glass.

The next step is to paint the main lines with the most important shade of paint. You need to let the principal paint dry entirely. Next, you need to cover the stained glass jewelry boxes design with the selected colors. You should let the glass dry carefully. The last thing is to glue the glass with the painted surface downward on the box. After you glue cord around the border of the glass, your stained glass jewelry boxes will be ready.

Dangerous Animals Of Australia

By Jennifer Schellington

If you've decided to visit Australia, I'm sure there is a slight amount of nervousness setting in about some of its creatures. No doubt someone has told you a little horror story that has set your mind racing. This article will tell you more about some of these nasty creatures. It also aims to reassure you that there is a VERY low chance that you will encounter one of these dangerous Australian animals.

Australia has more than its fair share of nasty creatures that can in fact kill you. Some are so poisonous that you could be dead in less than 3 minutes. There are at least 10 deadly animals that are found in Australia ranging from the very large to the very small. The Great White Shark and the Funnel Web Spider are often the ones that travellers have heard of or been scared half to death by horrible stories.

The truth is that there is a very slim chance that you will encounter any of the dangerous Australian animals. There have only been 11 shark fatalities in Australia over the last 50 years. These tended to be by those who did not follow the basic rules. There have been no deaths from funnel web spiders over the same time period as there is now an anti-venom available. So, as long as you follow some practical advice you should not feel threatened or in danger when here in Australia.

So, lets meet some of these dangerous Australian animals.

The Great White Shark

Did you know that sharks have an extra sense? They can detect electromagnetic fields that are emitted by the movement of living animals. They are also huge. The great white shark can be as long as 6m and can weigh over 2,200kg. Clearly not something you would like to see whilst you are out swimming.

It's a fact that there are sharks in Australian waters but most of them are harmless. Don't be put off for going for a swim as part of your holiday. Just take some sensible precautions. These include not swimming at dusk or dawn when sharks are more active. You should also avoid swimming too far out or near schools of fish. Don't go in the water if you have an open cut that is bleeding either.

It's true that over recent years there has been a slight increase in shark attacks although no-one has actually died. Experts can't seem to agree why this may be but it is believed to be due to an algae that is now in our waters as well as the fact that our waters are getting cleaner. Both these factors could be bringing sharks further into our bays.

The funnel web spider

This spider looks like something you might find in a joke shop as it's very black and can be glossy. You are unlikely to see one on the grass as they prefer to create little burrows in places like garden rockeries or garages. They are fond of water so are sometimes find floating in swimming pools when they have accidentally fallen in. The Sydney funnel web is so called because it lives in and around Sydney.

If you see any spider in Australia, it's best to keep away. Most are in fact totally harmless but it's better to be safe than sorry. If the funnel web is going to bite you, he'll lift up onto his back legs and show you his fangs. Now would be a good time to run!

Sometimes the funnel web will give a dry bite i.e. no venom. So, only 25% of their bites contain venom. You'd feel pain pretty much straight away and you'd need to get yourself to hospital in case you need anti venom. There are ways to stop the venom from spreading through your blood stream, giving you more time to get to the hospital. These are detailed on the website (see bottom of this article)

Saltwater Crocodile

There are in fact 2 reported deaths from crocodiles every year. That makes them the most dangerous animal in Australia from a statistics point of view. They are found in the very north of Australia but can be seen as far down as Broome to the west and Tropical Queensland in the East. It's easy to avoid an encounter with a croc by following some simple rules.

Firstly don't be fooled by their name, these crocodiles prefer to live in freshwater rivers and lakes. They are extremely territorial, ferocious and can grow very large.

If you do plan to visit the top end, obey any NO SWIMMING CROCODILES signs. The government may not have put signs up in the less visited areas. Keep this in mind if you decide to explore of the beaten track.

If you do decide to camp in this area, don't camp too near to the waters edge and don't wash etc at the same point near the water every day as one day you may have an unexpected guest!

There are 7 other dangerous Australian animals to find out about. Which one could kill you in less than 3 minutes? What would you do if you got bitten by a snake? For more information go to the Real Australia Travel Website.

Win Lotto: Improve your Chances

By Coral Larsen

Joining a lottery syndicate is a must for people who want to improve their odds of winning a lottery. In being a part of a lotto syndicate, you are thirty six times more likely to win than if you purchase a lottery ticket on your own. Though the jackpot will be split up between several people, there is a much greater chance of getting a prize than there would be if purchased separately, even though the prize would be larger.

It has been said that over a quarter of all lottery wins are won by lottery syndicate groups. This is a very high number, proving a much higher chance of winning the jackpot. Normally, as a member of a lottery syndicate, the average person spends a lot less than he would if he was purchasing the tickets on his own. It costs less, but the chances of winning are much higher. That doesnt leave much to the questioning of whether to join one or not.

Though, to be completely fair, one must realize that joining a syndicate can have its drawbacks as well. The biggest one being that the prize will be split between several different people. This means that, if you win, you may have enough money to buy a new car or even a new house, but will not likely be able to quit your job and live off of the winnings.

If a syndicate is not set up properly, there could be many problems that could arise. One is that a greedy syndicate member could decided to keep all of the winnings for himself and the other syndicate members would have to try and prove that they have been ripped off. Another potential problem is that one member could forget to pay their dues, but still expect a chunk of the winnings, since he or she has been involved in all of the past drawings.

The best thing to do when joining a lottery syndicate is to find one that has legal backup. There should be legal contracts involved, stating who gets the money if the lotto is won.

The benefits to joining a lottery syndicate far outweigh the negatives. As long as it is put together well and you know that the prize amounts will be smaller, there is absolutely no reason to hesitate to join one. It is best to do a little bit of research and find one that works well for you.

The Short Of Aion Power-Leveling Services

By James Megabull

Many websites currently offer Aion power-leveling services to fans of Aion. It is a service which helps players to reach higher levels within the game. Aion, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) is also known as Aion, The Tower of Eternity. The game was first developed in South Korea in 2006. Other versions now have begun in China, Taiwan, and Australia.

Many of these websites offer similar services for their customers. They note that they have experienced staff to help those who would like to achieve higher levels of the game. This is all done for a set fee in which most services accept credit cards, Paypal, or Western Union. They provide 24/7 service to their clients, and most allow a live chat to answer questions. Some sites will have different packages to choose from depending on the customers needs. Service is usually available in minutes of signing up.

If someone would like the assistance of power-leveling for other MMORPG's, these sites also provide this service. Many other games aside from Aion include World of Warcraft and 2 Moons.

To describe the service more in-depth, players who have more difficulty defeating the enemies may employ these online services. These players may have several years of experience who are more skilled at defeating these challenges. An example of other strategies may include killing in one spot of the game repeatedly to gain levels.

There are some critics of the practice of power-leveling. The belief is that achieving these higher levels was not what the inventors intended and it reduces the game's original challenge. Some have labeled it as a form of cheating. Developers of this game and others are trying to prevent this. They do this by making certain adjustments in the game usually by the how the player is rewarded. They may allow a player to only gain a certain amount of reward per level.

This game is a worldwide sensation with recent releases. It was originally developed by a company in South Korea called NCsoft in 2006. Other variations have been marketed in Taiwan, Europe, Australia, and North America as well. Power-leveling services are also available for users worldwide.

The basis of the game revolves around combat. The premise of the story is of a civilization with agod named Aion. This god created the human race of Draken who, in time, became the nemesis of Aion. They wanted to fight against the rule of Aion. He then, in turn, created lords to fend the Draken. The lords created a wall which also protected some of the humans within this barrier to keep them safe.

The player can choose between a wide selection of characters to play. Each character has their special capabilities to travel through each level, and they each have different combat skills. These characters can also be modified to the player's preference such as height, appearance, and wear such as armor.

A player can score more points by capturing or killing higher level targets. The higher the level of the enemy which the player defeats, the more points are scored and the higher they go in levels. Points are lost if you are killed or injured.

An Introduction To Online Casino Slot Games

While many people enjoy the fun of playing slots at a casino, it seems that many of them aren't aware that they can enjoy the same fun by playing slots online. The casino slot games that are available online are the much the same as the ones the casinos have, with the main difference being that the slots are virtual. They aren't machines that you can actually touch. Even though you can't really touch the machines, the online casino slot games pay the same kind of winnings that the slot machines in the big city casinos pay.

The game is played the same online as it is in physical casinos. Before you start playing and spending any money, you need to be sure that you research the different online casinos. While the majority of them are legitimate, there are a small number of them that are not considered to be among the top online casinos.

You want to feel confident that you are playing online casino slots with an online casino that has a reputation for paying their winners the money they won. How do you actually receive your winnings while playing slots online? Since everything is done online, many people find this aspect of the game to be a bit confusing even though its very simple.

Once you've found an online casino that interests you enough to start playing with, you will have to use your credit or bank card to deposit the amount of money you want to play with. The money you deposit to the online casino account doesn't have to be spent at one time. You can use it any time you want or need to.

As you play the casino slots, the money you deposit will be deducted according. The money you win will also be deposited directly to your casino account. You will have two choices regarding how you use this money. You can either play more slots in an effort to win more, or you can choose to have the money transferred to your offline bank account so you can spend the money elsewhere.

One thing you should watch for when you are new to online casino slots is free money. Many of the legitimate online casinos frequently offer their new players free money as an incentive to spend money in their casino rather than another one. The better they make the offer, the more likely the will get more players. If you keep your eyes open you will be able to get your hands on plenty of free money to play with. It's really nice to play with free money.

Be sure you use caution as you play each of the games. It's usually a good idea to play the casino slots that you can understand when you are first starting out. This gives you a chance to get the hang of how things work. As you gain experience you will feel confident enough to play some of the more complicated slot set ups or an entirely different game. However, you may find that you enjoy the slots so much that you never even want to try any of the other games.

Quality Halloween Costumes Promising To Send You To The Top

By Susan West

Halloween is one time of the year we get to be something different. Forget the norm and try something bizarre, terrifying, or exotic! This is the one holiday that should be nothing but pure fun! Children and adults alike prepare for grotesque quantities of goodies, Halloween costumes, and clever tricks. Only a single day long, it can be easy to put off your holiday planning until the last minute. This can cause major problems when you run to the store, searching picked over Halloween costumes. Remember, if you choose the wrong Halloween costume, you may find your dark holiday turns into a terrifying event.http://www.costumecauldron.com/Kids-Angel-Fairy-Wings-Costumes.html

Be frightening or hilariously funny, on this day anything goes. Make the most out of this time of the year by getting into all the Halloween costumes and choosing one you'll like wearing as well. Take account of your own personal tastes and then go for it. Will you be a rock star like Mick Jagger; or possibly a classic character like Wonder Woman. This is the one day to take off those conservative clothes and step outside of you into the costume filled world of Halloween.

Before you commit to a certain costume, consider where you plan to wear your new one night only persona. Certain costumes may not be appropriate for certain situations. For example, do you plan to wear that terribly revealing belly dancer outfit to the office? You would be better off to forgo the exotic performer for something more conservative.

Halloween costumes don't have to show a lot of skin to be revealing either. If there is something that you really want to wear that you don't think will be inappropriate consider adding something to make it appear less so. This way you can have the best of both worlds. Halloween is for fun, but you still want to have something that works for where you are.

Immoveable would be a good word to describe many Halloween costumes. What about a character from Star Wars or even ET himself? Choose whatever character or celebrity you want; just make sure that you select one that will conform to the environment you are in. It's nice to hear tons of ooh's when people see you in your costume, but you don't want to feel trapped while wearing it.

Some Halloween costumes are positively immoveable. Sure, it looks amazing, that elaborate recreation of the Death Star from Star Wars. The one that encompasses you from neck to knees. However, are you going to be able to safely maneuver your fully operational battle station as you go for another glass of spiked punch? Rather than risk a spill, choose something less immense. A compromise to consider would be designing an outfit that folds down, or that you can remove and stow the cumbersome pieces after the ooh's and ahh's have quieted from your triumphant entrance.

The durability of your Halloween costume can make or break your frustration levels. If the hair piece keeps sliding down your head into your face, or pieces keep popping off at the worst times, say when you're trying to chat up that cousin of your friend you have had your eye on, you may regret your outfit decisions. Always perform a test run at home.

A clever Halloween costume is going to be a wonderful conversation starter. Putting in a little time can make all the difference. There are certain outfits we see year after year. Sure, the occasional variation may make them stand out, but who do you really remember from last year's party? The guest who came in the watered down French Maid costume, or the one who dressed as Cher, full wig, makeup, microphone, the works, and was a guy! http://www.costumecauldron.com/Kids-Biblical-Jesus-Nun-Costumes.html

Halloween costumes are one of the main things that make the holiday fun. This is the time to let go and dress up in any wild or crazy way you want. This is an opportunity that you shouldn't let pass. Plan it out, take your time, get ready early and have a ball this Holiday with an appropriate costume that you'll enjoy wearing! Edited by Glinda Zuladra

Discover How To Get Celebrity Hairstyles Without Paying Too Much

This way, it would be very easy to manage and you will not have difficulty in achieving the kind of celebrity hairstyle that you like.

You might need to go to a salon for a hair cut that will give you your chosen celebrity look. It is advisable to just go to a cheaper salon or go to one that offers discount. You could use your rollers or curling iron to achieve curly or wavy hairstyles using mousse or other styling products.

How To Get The Best Bang For Your Buck In A Poker Tournament.

By Sean Pratch

Most poker tournaments will advertise what the starting chip stacks are. They will announce a tournament with 5,000 chips, 10,000 chips, or more. That sounds good but may not be a little bit of "too good to be true." Having a seemingly large starting stack is attractive to many tournament poker players.

Poker tournament players can often make this mistake. The problem is that there are no rules about what a starting stack should be and there are no rules regarding the starting blinds or even the blind structure. A poker tournament that starts with 10,000 chips may have starting blinds that are 25/50, which would make it very deep-stacked, or it could have starting blinds of 100/200, which is relatively short-stacked.

Short-stack tournaments may attract some poker players. Tournaments like this can be an opportunity to be aggressive and take advantage of small edges. The reality is that most poker players are more comfortable in a tournament where they have a deep stack. Consideration of the starting blinds and the blind structure is very important when deciding on a poker tournament to play in.

Generally, the cheaper the tournament, the shorter the starting stacks will be. A $50 daily tournament at a casino will normally be very short-stacked with a quick blind structure compared with a $500+ special event tournament. The reason is that the casino wants to make as much money in the shortest amount of time. They are not making much money with a $50 tournament so they want it end quickly.

Besides the starting blind level, you must also consider the blind structure. If the starting blinds make it seem like a deep-stack tournament it may have a blind structure where the blinds double every round and the rounds are only 20 minutes long. While the players may start with a deep stack, they will quickly be short-stacked with a structure like that.

The next time you consider a tournament make sure you get as much information about the tournament so you can make a fully informed decision. The important facts to know are starting chip stacks, the starting blind level, and the blind structure. There are other considerations to take into account, such as number of players, the vig that the casino takes, and the payout, but for now just make sure that the poker tournament structure is one that you are most comfortable to play in.

Tiger Woods Blows it for Himself and the PGA

By Tony Lamazza

Golf fans were all stunned today when Tiger Woods was defeated by an unknown Y.E. Yang at the PGA championship. The lead was all Tiger's, and to have seen him blow it, well, many weren't expecting it to put it lightly. Yang is the first ever Asian golfer to ever win a major event, and this is the first time Tiger Woods ever lost a major on the last day after having held the lead.

Yay? I don't think the PGA, it's sponsors, or the casual golf fan are very happy. Tiger Woods in the starter, middle reliever, and closer for the PGA. Without Tiger, as we saw last year, no one cares. Now, people are getting the feeling that Tiger has lost it. He didn't win a major this year and pretty much choked away the PGA Championship after missing the cut at the British Open.

Woods is by no means past his prime. After returning from an injury that ended his 2008 campaign, Woods has bounced back with wins at five tournaments. Some of these involved some vintage Woods Sunday comebacks. Unfortunately, the majors are far more watched than the other tournaments, so the typical sports fan doesn't realize that all's not lost in Tiger's corner.

For the short-term, Yang's victory makes for an interesting story and may feed the media with some fuel for now. But the 2009 PGA season is devoid of stories. A lack of a Tiger win, and Tom Watson's falling short at the British Open both make for some major disappointments compared to what could have been.

Yang will probably make few headlines anytime soon, and the once "sure prospect" of Woods beating Jack Nicklaus' record for majors one is suddenly not such a sure thing anymore.

And for the 2009 golf season, there's not exactly much that fans can look forward to at this point. Will a Fedex Cup tournament excite them? Not exactly. There's really not much to look for.

Tiger must bounce back in 2009. He is the face of the PGA, and any story lines lacking Tiger Woods will do anything but help the sport grow.

Here's to hoping that 2010 brings us a Tiger resurgence, and most notably, a major or two. The sport really needs it.

How To Find The Best Video Slots

It seems that more and more people are finally starting to catch on to how fun video slots can be. The games themselves are a lot of fun to play and you might just be able to win yourself a little money in the midst of having all of that fun. Maybe you will be able to buy yourself a few candy bars, an energy drink, dinner out or the vacation of your dreams.

In order to make sure that you are giving yourself the best shot possible at winning the big bucks, it is important to make sure that you are getting the absolute best video slots available. But how does one go about doing this? It can be hard to simply trust the gaming site because they all want to claim that they are the best of the best.

So what should you do? Trust the gaming site with the video slots? No, but you can trust the reviews of other people. Look into player reviews to see what others are saying about the video slots that you are interested in. Are there a lot of good reviews about the slots or are there a lot of bad ones? If you are finding that there are more complaints than praises you may want to rethink playing that particular slot game.

Be careful though. You want to watch for reviews that sound like they come directly from the gaming site or from someone that was hired by the gaming site to post positive comments about them. If the praises seem a little, "practiced", then they probably are. You may want to keep a close eye on sites that have a lot of that type of praise. If they are not truthful with user posts and reviews, what else could they be hiding or being dishonest about?

You can talk with friends and family to see what their take is on particular video slots. They may not know which are the best ones out there, depending on their experience, but they can at least provide you with a little direction in regards to their personal experience with the video slots that they have played.

And then, there is always the trial and error process. Try out some of the various video slots and see what they are all about. Do not go overboard with any particular one until you have properly seen what they are all about. By having some first hand online casino gambling experience you will be able to make a well rounded judgment call on which is the best for you out of all of your options. And then maybe you can be the one giving advice to your friends on which are the best video slots.

Now that you have a little better idea on how to find the best video slots, you are probably ready to get started with your search. Just make sure that you are taking your time, going for only the best of the best and you will be playing some amazingly fun slots in no time at all.

It has attracted video game designers such as EA to make games for the system. The system can be hooked up to the internet which has caused downloadable Xbox 360 games to become a highly profitable market. This has also caused people to create scams for profit for fake Xbox games.

We all know that there is nothing for free and that there is always a "catch". A lot of people tend to go to websites offering free Xbox games or even to a torrent site in order to save money.

But they don't know how dangerous these methods are, considering that 8/10 free games contain viruses, spyware and other malicious programs made to steal personal information or just for the sake of sabotage. Even the other 2/10 are not guaranteed to be of a 100% functionality.

Stores That Has Great Outfits

By Rene A Lacape

Have to go for a costume party and don't have an idea as to what costume to go for? Getting a costume is not an easy task, both for women and men. It is well known that women are too conscious about the way they look, but so are the men. So it is equally difficult to find men's costumes. You would definitely not want to look silly in a costume party.

Though it can be tiring, but purchasing a costume can really be fun and enjoyable. It is surely a challenge for you, but when you are on to get a costume for couples, the challenge might get tougher.

Selecting a women's or a men's costume is something that requires some effort. And it requires some real hard work if you are on to go for a costume for couples. You can take it this way-choosing one costume requires hard work, so selecting two will require double the hard work.

If you are new to the whole process of selecting a costume, you might find this a bit of challenge about how to get started. The most important thing you would need to address first and foremost is to determine where you are going to get your costumes in the first place before you can even decide what costumes you want. That is because you might have already had an idea of what you want to dress up as, but you need to keep in mind the availability of the costume you want. If you can't find what you are looking for, it is pointless anyway so you might as well go the stores first and see what options are open to you before making a choice.

The best option for you would be the local stores. This is because once you have decided the store you might want to drop in, you can even try the costumes. If you like the same, get it, or else move to other options.

Internet is one of the best sources to get whatever you want, even the costumes! You can browse the internet to choose the right costume form a wide range. The internet will also suggest you some tips for selecting the right costume. The sellers will get the costumes shipped to you at your doorsteps. But you will not be able to try the costumes.

You don't really have to worry about the size as the costumes are available in various sizes, shapes and styles. If you plan, know what do you want and start early, nothing could beat the fun in getting a costume.

For those who are worried they might not be able to find some party costumes in their sizes perhaps, not to worry because adult plus size costumes are now much more easily found than ever before, because costumes these days come in all sorts of styles, shapes and sizes that you don't have to worry. Picking a costume is not that hard really. It is all about the planning and the better you are at planning and getting started early, the easier finding a costume will be.

First Steps To Playing The Guitar

By Mike Wong

If you love performing, you will throughly enjoy trying to play the guitar. There's nothing better than performing in front of your friends and family by playing their favorite guitar songs. Unfortunately, it is not easy to learn guitar for beginners especially if you don't have anyone to teach you. It takes time to master the guitar, and if you are impatient, you may quit before you are able to play the simplest song.

To be successful guitar player, you need to start from the beginning. First off, you will need to figure out how to tune your guitar, otherwise every note you play will sound awful. If you don't tune your guitar on a regular basis, the strings will become stretched and sound distorted. E-A-D-G-B-E is the standard guitar tuning. While there are other tuning you can use, it is a good idea learn this one first.

Once you have tuned your guitar, you can start playing some notes with it. To play a note, take one of the strings, and press down on it on one of the frets with one finger, and pluck at the string with your other hand. Play around and do the same thing with different frets on the same string. Congrats, you can now play different notes with your guitar.

Now that you are able to play a few notes, you will want to start learning some chords. Using a guitar chord chart, try to find a few chords that you can play. It will take some time to train your fingers to play chords properly, but don't give up. You will get the hang of them, and eventually you should be able to go back and forth between a few alternate chords at once.

You may become bored playing these simple notes and chords. Nothing will get you more excited about playing the guitar than being able to play your first song. For this, you should find some guitar tabs to play. Guitar tabs allow you to play songs without the ability to read sheet music and you can find guitar tabs for almost any song imaginable. The tabs are basically a picture that shows the 6 strings of the guitar along with numbers that represent the fret you should hold down for each note. Just pick a simple guitar tab to learn and go over it until it becomes natural for you to play. Don't get frustrated, as it will take you some time to master it. Although there are still many skills to learn, you are now on your way to mastering the guitar.

Online Casino Slot Games (An Introduction)

While many people already know about the great fun that they can have at a casino. Playing the slots, it seems to be new knowledge still that the same fun can be found online. The casino slots that you find online are the same kind of casinos with the only difference being that they are virtual than something that you can actually physically touch. But the online casino slots are the same game and produce the same kind of winnings that slots in big town casinos produce.

The game is played exactly the same. The best thing to do, before spending any money, is to make sure that you are researching the various online casinos. This is because while most of the casinos online are legit, there is always a chance that you would come across one that is not considered a part of the top line.

You want to make sure that you are playing casino slots with an online casino that is known for paying their winnings their money. But how is it that you actually receive the winnings? Since the entire game is played online, many people find this part of the game very confusing. It is rather simple though.

Once you find an online casino that you would like to play with, you will need to use your bank card or credit card to upload a dollar amount that you would like to play with. The amount of money that you deposit into your online casino account does not have to be spent all at once. You can dip into as needed or desired.

As you play the casino slots, your casino account will be deducted the proper amount of funds. The winnings that you receive will be deposited into that online casino account. You, as the winner, can chose to play with those winnings in an attempt to win more, or you can have that money transferred into your bank account so that you can spend your winnings elsewhere.

One thing that you will want to keep your eyes open for is free money, especially since you are new to the online casino slots. Many legit casinos are offering new players free money. This is an incentive to play at their online casino instead of another casino. The better the incentive is, the more likely they will receive more business. Because of this, you can really find yourself earning a lot of free money. When you play with free money, you really are not out any of your own.

Make sure that you are playing each game with caution. You also want to start off with the casino slots that are easy enough to understand. This will allow you to get the hang of everything. As you become more advanced you can move on to more complicated slot set ups or even a new type of game all together. You might just find yourself thrilled with the slots so much that you never want to play any other games again.

Absolute Hiking Essentials

By James Warner

These are the most important items in your pack. Applicable to both dayhikes and backpacking trips, these will improve your safety, comfort and quality of your outdoor adventure.

Obtain a map of where you will be hiking. Usually, you can pick one up at the park visitor center or ranger station. You can also download maps from various websites. Having a good map will not only will not only prevent you from getting lost, but it can help rescuers find you if you suffer an injury.

Get yourself a good map reading compass. Using the map and compass together, you can orient your map to your direction and surroundings, choose the correct path and keep yourself on course.

Two, one liter bottles of water so that you stay hydrated. This is your minimum required intake per day, but since hiking is physically demanding you will drink more, especially in warmer climates. You can survive for a month without food, but only two or three days without water. You should have some sort of water treatment with you. I carry Aqua-Mira, which is a liquid purifying agent.

It's possible to spend an unexpected night in the woods. Always have some extra food, enough for an additional day if you need it. Even having a few back up whole food bars with you should do the trick. Especially if they constitute meal replacement. You will have the extra energy with you just in case.

A few more layers of clothing for comfort and safety. Temperatures can drop unexpectedly or at nightfall. If you hike through rain or fall into a creek, having only one layer of wet clothes when it starts getting colder can spell disaster. Make sure to wear synthetics as they are more insulative when wet and dry quickly.

Take a flashlight with you. You may want to purchase a headlamp so that you can be hands-free. Every once in a while, you will be out a bit later than expected. Negotiating a hiking trail in the dark is dangerous.

Having an accident or injury in the backcountry is no fun. Bring a small first aid kit with you. You can create one out of household supplies but don't forget hiking needs like moleskin or blister treatment. I recommend taking a basic wilderness medicine course.

On rare occasion one must light a fire in the backcountry as a matter of survival. I've been on a kayak trip where someone overturned and they were soaked just as the temperature started to drop. Do not light a fire unless absolutely necessary. Bring matches and a lighter in a waterproof case and use caution to avoid wildfires.

A folding camp knife will serve many a purpose. Be sure that the one you choose has a blade that locks when open. I've seen knives that don't lock take off finger tips.

Ultraviolet protection is really important. The suns rays can be damaging to eyes and skin, so bring a good pair of sunglasses, a small tube of sunblock and perhaps a wide brimmed hat.

Synyster Gates - The Best Modern Guitarist

By Nathan Spencer

Brian Elwin Haner was born on the 7th of July better known as Synyster Gates which is his stage name, he is the backup vocalist and the lead guitarist for Avenged Sevenfold, an American heavy metal/hard rock band. After attending 2 different schools in California he later on also attended the Musicians Institute situated in Hollywood. Despite the fact that he did not graduate from this institute, music flowed through his veins. He had taught himself the rudiments of music by reading books and viewing music videos prior to joining Musicians Institute.

This comes across a surprise since his father was guitar player and also a songwriter who had played with Frank Zappa. Synyster, who prefers to use Bogner amps and Schecter guitars, received a phone call from The Rev of Avenged Sevenfold and was asked if he was willing to join that group as their lead guitarist this occurred after he attended the Institute for roughly six months. Opting to pursue the career of a studio musician, Synyster forsake his education and joined Avenged Sevenfold.

He had joined this group when he was just 18 years of age and towards the end of the year 1999 Synyster joined this group. This was just prior to the recording of Avenged Sevenfold's 1st album titled `Sounding the Seventh Trumpet'. Synyster featured on the extended play of Avenged Sevenfold, `Warmness of the Soul' and also on the re-release of the first album of that group. Synyster also plays the piano for certain selected songs from time to time. The name Synyster Gates was thought by The Rev during the course of a drunken drive. Some of the members of his band alleged that Synyster had often thought of himself as too good a player for that type of band, but these thoughts were brushed aside by Synyster.

This famous guitarist, along with The Rev had also played for Pinkly Smooth, a metal band. Since they wanted to devote all their time behind Avenged Sevenfold, both of them finally left this group. Synyster Gates has won various awards like the `Young Shredder' award in 2006 and also the Total Guitar Magazine's guitarist of the year award in 2006. He has also featured in guest appearances in music videos like `The River' (Good Charlotte), and Dirty Little Girl (Burn Halo). This famous guitarist is also endorsed by Schecter guitars and there are two different versions of his signature model.

Winning At Slot Games

Are you interested in finding some slot games that you can play for a little fun? Or maybe you really need to win money to pay off a new car you just had to have. In either case, whether it is your goal or nice, it is always fun to win at slots. Money is something that everyone needs. Just think of everything you could do with an extra five hundred, thousand or even ten thousand dollars!

You may be thinking that you will never win at slots but people do win big amounts every single day. Why can't that be you? Why can't it be your turn to finally have a little good luck sprinkled your way? You might just be thinking that now it is your turn for a little fun and luck to come your way.

If you want to win money at slot games, the best thing you can do for yourself is to educate yourself on the games and the system in general. When playing with online casinos, the most important thing to do is to make sure that it is legit. The last thing you want to do is to hand your hard earned money over to a casino that is just going to take it and run. Picking a reputable online casino is the first step to winning.

Check out the payout history of the casinos you are looking into. Casinos are often proud of the amount of money they have paid out in winnings. It brings more customers in. So, if they have truly been able to give out thousands or millions of dollars in winnings, you want to know about it. The casinos that do not have a history of paying anyone anything will probably continue with that road so avoid those casinos at all costs, unless you enjoy giving away your money without expecting anything in return.

Another way to win at slot games is to play with someone else's money. This does not mean that you should sneak into your friend's purse. That is illegal. What is legal is casinos handing you free money to play with. This is money that you can play the slots with and you are actually entitled to keep any and all winnings that you receive. You are not forced to put your winnings back into the pockets of the online casino. Of course, you can choose to do that or you can simply transfer your winnings to your bank account.

What better way is there to win than to win with free money? The more free money you are given, the more you can play the slots. And the more you can play the slots, the better your odds are of winning. It just cannot get much better that that. So now that you know a little more about how to win at online slot games, you can join some online casinos and starting making the big bucks. Just make sure that you are having with the slot games and you will easily see that playing the slots is anything but a waste of time.

Bring On a Super Fight!

By Adam Orbach

There seem to be a few great MMA fights each year, highly anticipated. Generally speaking, there's still a favorite in each fight, as fans know who to expect to win. Once in a blue moon, the type of epic fight comes along that has a feel of the "Frazier/Ali" hype to it.

Looking at the current state of the UFC, middleweight and welterweight champs Anderson Silva and Georges St. Pierre have both defeated all of their recent competition with relative ease, leaving many fans to ponder how they can do something interesting from here.

Once "GSP" and Thiago Alves' fight came to a close during UFC 100 it was obvious "GSP" had manhandled Alves and was going to walk away with yet another dominant victory. He did. St-Pierre's next opponent will be the winner of Mike Swick and Martin Kampman at UFC 103. Two guys who've fought their way to the top of the division and one will get a shot at Georges St-Pierre. Although both men are very capable MMA fighters it's really hard to say either of them have a chance at defeating the champ. St-Pierre is simply in another class of fighter. When the Swick v St-Pierre or Kampman v St-Pierre fight comes and goes we'll probably all be left with a burning question, whose next?

After Anderson Silva and Forrest Griffin's "fight" at UFC 101 this past Saturday some questions were raised. What was Anderson Silva going to do next? He had just defeated former light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin in an embarrassing fashion. Knocking down Forrest twice before offering to help him up, then seconds later knocking Forrest down for a third and final time. Before the fight Forrest said something like "you may beat me, but nobody will ever break me." Really Forrest? He ran out of the octagon and then the building. Avoiding the post fight press conference and has still not released an official statement. I think broken is a nice word, words like crippled, shattered and disintegrated come to mind.

Next on Silva's list is Dan Henderson, who earned a shot for the title against Silva after defeating Britain's best, Michael Bisbing. Still, no one sees this as a fight to take too seriously and fans and experts alike predict an easy win for Silva. What's left for Silva to prove now?

Despite the fact that Silva can roll with the best in his class, he still isn't willing to move up to the light heavyweight division and accept a fight with its champ, Lyoto Machida. Silva and Machida are great friends and he'd prefer not to fight such a close friend.

At this point, it looks like both St. Pierre and Anderson are at their peaks, with no one posing any kind of threat to the two. Interest may wane due to the lack of competitiveness in their fights, so why not put the two against each other?

As for who would come out on top, well, that's the beauty of a fight like this. No one really knows. It's been a while since we've seen a super fight, and I think the UFC is due.

An Overlooked Pitching Prospect

By Chad Calloway

It seems like everyone has always had criticism for Clay Buchholz, Boston Red Sox starting pitcher. Whether they point out his young age, his height, the unworthy hype he receives, or anything else, people are always ready to point out his flaws.

Lately, Buccholz has been more than solid. Just this past week, he started in Toronto against the always intimidating Roy Halladay. This was a very difficult match-up for Buchholz, and anyone following the game would have expected Halladay to out-pitch him.

But Buchholz continued to be unfazed by all of it and put up his third-straight solid start, going six innings and allowing just one run on six hits on 94 pitches for the win while Halladay looked like the inexperienced one (five innings, eight hits, four earned runs, 103 pitches). He's learning on the job and despite going up against the other team's best, Buchholz continues to send a message to anyone that will listen that he has earned his spot.

This was a great start against the Blue Jays, and adds to the list of recent impressive starts we've seen the young pitcher put together. His last three match-ups have all been extremely difficult ones, as we've seen him pitted up against CC Sabathia, Justin Verlander, and Roy Halladay in consecutive starts. His starts against the Yankees and Tigers were on the same level as the start against Halladay, as he allowed just one and two earned runs respectively in these.

While there have been struggles - namely a horrendous outing against Baltimore before this stretch of quality starts - Buchholz (2-3, 3.99 ERA) has been pitching well enough to keep his spot until Tim Wakefield and/or Daisuke Matsusaka returns and deserves credit for filling a hole left by John Smoltz's abysmal run in a Red Sox uniform.

Incidentally, Buchholz was the subject of many rumors leading up to the trade deadline. It's very well possible that these rumors had a real impact on his performance, which is when his struggles essentially took place.

Don't let the haters fool you: Buchholz is for real and this three-start trial by fire against three of the AL's best shouldn't be overlooked. Those that say he isn't pitching well should explain what their criteria is, because from everything I'm seeing, this is exactly what you should expect from a top prospect with 25 career starts pitching for one of the highest-profile and most covered teams in sports.

The Red Sox are sorely in need of a reliable starting pitcher. With Matsuzaka and Wakefield sidelined, and Smoltz back down in the minors, there couldn't be a better time for Buchholz to establish himself as a steady hand in Boston's rotation.

Tiger Woods Blows it for Himself and the PGA

By Tony Lamazza

In a very interesting and atypical twist today, Tiger Woods blew a lead entering the final round of the PGA Championships, losing to Y.E. Yang, a relatively unknown golfer. Woods had simply never lost a major after leading or being tied for the lead, and the world was shocked after witnessing today's events.

Yay? I don't think the PGA, it's sponsors, or the casual golf fan are very happy. Tiger Woods in the starter, middle reliever, and closer for the PGA. Without Tiger, as we saw last year, no one cares. Now, people are getting the feeling that Tiger has lost it. He didn't win a major this year and pretty much choked away the PGA Championship after missing the cut at the British Open.

Woods hasn't regressed as much as people like to think. He's still won a very impressive five tourneys in 2009, and has staged some remarkable comebacks this year. Only the more serious fans realize this, but the media will be all about Tiger's lack of a major in 2009.

Yang winning is good, at the moment. But looking back 20 or 30 years from now, wouldn't you rather tell your kids or grandchildren about how the greatest golfer of all time beat some other guy in a 12-hole playoff after holing out from the fairway on 18. Wouldn't you rather have told your grandkids about how Tom Watson, the old geezer like you, won the British Open instead of pushing an 8 foot putt way to the right and self-destructing in a 4 hole playoff?

Yet, this pushes it to another level. You're talking about the greatest golfer on Earth, losing to some no-name from South Korea who probably won't win another major. If Tiger had won, it would've given hope to next year, a hope maybe he finally does what he was destined to do, win all the major in the same year and pass Jack Nicklaus for the most Major wins ever.

And for the 2009 golf season, there's not exactly much that fans can look forward to at this point. Will a Fedex Cup tournament excite them? Not exactly. There's really not much to look for.

We need the Tiger, the best golfer, to be well, the best golfer. He needs to hold leads on Sunday. He needs people to be scared on the last few holes with Tiger on the prowl. We need Tiger Woods to dominate everybody and ask questions later. If he's labeled the best, he needs to start performing in the biggest and best events.

Here's to hoping that 2010 brings us a Tiger resurgence, and most notably, a major or two. The sport really needs it.

The Different types of Unions for Filmmaking

By Marcy Burlock

As you begin your filmmaking career, unions will not really be much of a concern. For the most part, you will do all your hiring of actors and crew members from non-union members. However, after you have successfully completed a couple of films and made some money, you will most certainly need to start hiring union member actors and crew.

There are many unions affiliated with this industry including local ones. Here is a short list of a few you may encounter when embarking on your filmmaking career.

ACTRA

The Alliance of Canadian Cinema and Radio Artists is obviously a Canadian union. It's the sister union of the US based AFTRA. This is an actor's alliance, including performers in film, television and radio. As well as voice over artists, puppeteers, stunt performers, dancers and background performers.

This union was founded in 1943 to promote as well as protect its members. They negotiate wages for the actor's as well as benefits such as medical and dental and even retirement benefits with one particular branch.

ACTRA has their own awards ceremony to honor their performers much like the Academy Awards.

The requirements for membership include a onetime initiation fee of $75, plus a $75 annual fee. In addition, the actor must have had at least one speaking role in a film or television production, however this rule does not apply to background performers as they o not typically have a speaking role.

AFTRA

American Federation of Television and Radio Artists is based in the United States and like ACTRA, protects their members by negotiating wages, working conditions and benefits.

AFTRA represents Actors, Journalists and anyone working in the media and entertainment industries.

Founded in 1930, this makes AFTRA one of the oldest unions in the United States. In 1937, it began including radio artists and has now evolved to include negotiations with the Screen Actors Guild or SAG.

CFTPA

This is the Canadian Film and Television Production Association. It represents Television and Multimedia companies. They manage labor agreements, taxation, trade, copyright, broadcasting and film.

This union also trains young people about the industry and how to compete in it. This union is mostly for independent producers and production companies.

Directors Guild of America/Canada

This union represents Directors in both Canada and the United States. Assistant Directors, Unit Production Managers, Associate Directors, Stage Managers and Production Associates are also included.

Like with the others, they negotiate wages and working conditions of Directors in Film, Television, Stage, Media, Broadcasting and any form of production.

This union has evolved into a worldwide union from its humble beginnings in 1934 with only 100 members.

SAG

Screen Actors Guild union is probably one of the most well known of the unions. Founded in 1933, this union has stood up for actors back when the studios held control over contracts of their actors. Helping actors break free of long term contracts that didn't benefit them and making sure they were treated well.

The main reason for founding this union was that at the time, studios and producers held actors contracts and forced them to work excessively long hours. In addition, many of these contracts controlled the actors lives, including their personal lives.

This union has stood the test of time and is well noted for its best to protect its members. It was founded by a group of 21 actors who felt their rights were being violated.

In order to become a member, you must apply and have had at least one speaking role.

WGA/WGC

Known as the Writers Guild of America and the Writers Guild Of Canada, these unions represent writers in the film and television industry, media, CD-ROM, movies and news broadcasts.

The unions purpose is to negotiate contracts for its members and then enforce them with producers and directors. They also ensure their members receive medical and dental benefits in their contracts as well as residual pay for all screenwriters.

Members are offered training programs and resources and novel authors and screenwriters can register their work with the union in order to protect it from theft and plagiarism.

Many unions are also available for those in theatre, projectionists, camera operators and post production. The best way to ensure you are choosing the right union for you is to do some thorough research.
