Brain Fitness Training - (USA)
by Martin G. Walker In breaking the world record for the 100m sprint in Beijing, Usain Bolt completed the distance in 9.69 seconds. Not since Carl Lewis has a sprinter been this dominant and so far ahead of the field. Yet in 1984, Carl Lewis ran 0.3 seconds slower than Bolt in winning his gold medal - that would have put him about 3 meters back from Bolt. In fact, all but two of the eight finalists in Beijing would have beaten Carl Lewis. This doesn’t take anything away from Lewis. But it tell

Chip Vaughn: A Post-Draft Analysis - (USA)
I have to admit: I didn't know anything about Chip Vaughn. I read up on Louis Delmas, on Patrick Chung, on William Moore and Rashad Johnson and even Derek Pegues—who wasn't even drafted. But Vaughn slipped right past me. He didn't slip past Gregg Williams. I've found what I think is compelling evidence that Williams saw something in Vaughn that may have reminded him of the best football player he ever coached. First of all: the Saints needed safety help. Everyone knew it, and that was par

Software Review: JumpStart 3D Virtual World My First Adventure - (USA)
Hi all! As a parent of two young girls, ages 3 and 7, I’ve regularly struggled with what brand or type of educational software to pick up for them. Over the last few years, I have to admit the track record of this type of software has been hit and miss, but the JumpStart series from Knowledge Adventure has been one of the most consistent vendors we’ve run across. So when I saw a chance to review JumpStart 3D Virtual World My First Adventure, which is geared towards ages 3-5, I saw it as a per

Where is DianeCA? On Facebook! - (USA)
Hi folks! Some of my friends may be wondering where I have been…I haven’t seemed to be around as much, but aha some of you may have seen me a lot. Where? On Facebook. Yes I confess that I have been quite caught up with the ultimate time waster…facebook. And the source of my demise…I have discovered games. You see I never considered myself much of a good game player. Didn’t have the amazing hand eye coordination of my young sons and didn’t find it interesting to push a button repeatedly in order

Get Ready for Beer Pong Season! - (USA)
The Opening Day of Beer Pong Season is September 4th which reminded me that I wanted to draw some attention to The Book of Beer Pong which details all the strategy, tactics, rules and lore behind America’s quickest growing competitive sport. Think that on Labor Day weekend you can set up a ping pong table and a few cups and just start blindly lobbing balls in hopes of winning? Sure you can, but if you want to dominate (and humiliate) your competition, you’ll need to bring more to the table.

PT Playbook: Badminton Basics - (USA)
Badminton is distinguished from other racquet sports, all of which use a ball of some size, by two features: the use of a shuttlecock (birdie) and the fact the shuttlecock cannot touch the ground during a rally. It’s also considered the world’s fastest racquet sport since the shuttlecock (a small bouncy ball with a cone of feathers glued to it) can leave a player’s racquet at a mind boggling 200 miles per hour! Competitive badminton is far different from the game played in the backyard at fami

Jump to Comments When Sami Salo won the game in OT, I cheered so loud it was like the Canucks won the Cup. Heh. I think I might have spilled my drink all over myself as well. I LOVE this team so much! Sure, they got outshot by the Wings, and outplayed in the first period, but damn. They smoked them in OT and that’s what counts. To be honest with you, I thought the game was over when Datsyuk scored with three minutes left in the third, but this year’s team just doesn’t quit. The defence was
