Manchester United starts training for tour

Manchester United, minus many of its stars, has begun training for its North American tour with a 59-minute session at the Chicago Fire's home ground before about 1,500 fans in 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius) heat.

The Red Devils open their four-match trip in Toronto on Friday against Scottish Premier League side Celtic. After two matches against Major League Soccer sides, it concludes in Houston on July 28 with a match against the MLS All-Stars.

"That will probably be our toughest game," United manager Alex Ferguson said. "It's probably a bigger game for MLS than it is for us. I think you'll find they'll be well motivated because of that. We're used to the fact teams always want to play well against us."
It's Manchester United's third preseason trip to North America since Ferguson became manager in 1986.

"Each time I see an improvement in American soccer," Ferguson said. "The MLS has proven itself now. The performance of the (U.S.) national team helps. They were very credible in their performance in the World Cup, and I think that helped the younger people in the States.

"We know there are millions of kids playing. The MLS has to structure itself so these kids can eventually get to MLS. It'll take time to build a pyramid of soccer so they get to the MLS."

Manchester United was without World Cup participants Wayne Rooney, Patrice Evra, Michael Carrick, Nemanja Vidic and Park Ji-sung at training Wednesday. They get 30 days rest before they're required to begin their next season.

Manchester United's English Premier League season begins August 16, when it hosts Newcastle.
The training session, the first on-field event of United's trip, was held in the southwest suburbs of Chicago because the team's new corporate sponsor, AON, is headquartered downtown.

Inception - The Movie (Released 2010)

What is Inception means?

According to Cambridge Online Dictionary, Inception is the beginning of an organization or official activity.

Is it sound like another movie's concept like "Matrix" Series?

Christopher Nolan, who famous on his work, Batman Begins (2005) and The Dark Knight (2008), had directed this film. According to him, the idea was based on the notion of "exploring the idea of people sharing a dream space - entering a dream space and sharing a dream. That gives you the ability to access somebody’s unconscious mind. What would that be used and abused for?" Furthermore, he thought "being able to extract information from somebody’s brain would be the obvious use of that because obviously any other system where it’s computers or physical media, whatever – things that exist outside the mind – they can all be stolen ... up until this point, or up until this movie I should say, the idea that you could actually steal something from somebody’s head was impossible. So that, to me, seemed a fascinating abuse or misuse of that kind of technology". He had thought about these ideas on and off since he was 16 years old, intrigued by how he would wake up and then, while falling back into a lighter sleep, hold on to the awareness that he was dreaming, a lucid dream. He also became aware of the feeling that he could study the place and alter the events of the dream. He said, "I tried to work that idea of manipulation and management of a conscious dream being a skill that these people have. Really the script is based on those common, very basic experiences and concepts, and where can those take you? And the only outlandish idea that the film presents, really, is the existence of a technology that allows you to enter and share the same dream as someone else".

Originally, he had envisioned Inception as a horror film but eventually wrote it as a heist film even though he found that "traditionally [they] are very deliberately superficial in emotional terms". Initially, Nolan wrote an 80-page treatment about dream-stealers. Upon revisiting his script, he decided that basing it in that genre did not work because the story "relies so heavily on the idea of the interior state, the idea of dream and memory. I realized I needed to raise the emotional stakes". Nolan worked on the script for nine to ten years. When he first started thinking about making the film, the director was influenced by "that era of movies where you had The Matrix, you had Dark City, you had The Thirteenth Floor and, to a certain extent, you had Memento, too. They were based in the principles that the world around you might not be real". He first pitched the film to Warner Bros. in 2001 but in retrospect felt that he needed more experience making large scale films like Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. He soon realized that a film like Inception needed a large budget because "as soon as you’re talking about dreams, the potential of the human mind is infinite. And so the scale of the film has to feel infinite. It has to feel like you could go absolutely anywhere by the end of the film. And it has to work on a massive scale". After making The Dark Knight, Nolan decided to make Inception and spent six months completing the script. For the director, the key to completing the script was wondering what would happen if several people shared the same dream. He said, "Once you remove the privacy, you’ve created an infinite number of alternative universes in which people can meaningfully interact, with validity, with weight, with dramatic consequences".

Leonardo DiCaprio was the first actor to be cast in the film. Nolan had been trying to work with the actor for years and met him several times but was unable to convince him to appear in any of his films until Inception. DiCaprio finally agreed because he was "intrigued by this concept - this dream-heist notion and how this character's gonna unlock his dreamworld and ultimately affect his real life". He read the script and found it to be "very well written, comprehensive but you really had to have Chris in person, to try to articulate some of the things that have been swirling around his head for the last eight years". He and Nolan spent months talking about the screenplay. Nolan took a long time re-writing the script in order "to make sure that the emotional journey of his character was the driving force of the movie".

Law of Attraction

You can manifest your destiny when you understand the law of attraction and how it works. If you want to manifest your destiny, you must know the things that you want in your life and you must also take control in your life. We have many things in life that we want to manifest such as wealth, love, health and others. With the law of attraction, you can manifest your destiny and your desires. You can actually use it to open up new opportunities in your life.

There are people who actually just go about their everyday life on a routine basis. Although they do not really like the way things are going, they still go on about it because they have been used to it and this is how they expect the things to happen. What some of us actually fail to see is that we can do something about it. Try stopping for a while and look at the opportunities that you could obtain. Take opportunity as it comes knocking on your door.

The trick here is to remain constantly open to things that can make you happy. Why settle for something lackluster when you can in fact make yourself happy? You can truly live your life the way you want it to be. If there are people who have been successful in their life, you can be too! You just have to learn how to manifest your destiny.

Re-claim your life and walk the path that you really want to. Otherwise, you can be one of those who feel incomplete with their lives. Remember, when you want something, the universe creates it for you. But you have to do your share in manifesting your desires so that it can become reality. You can essentially attract the kind of life that you want to live! Wouldn't that be great?

Earth Day friendly dating ideas

April 22nd 2010 is Earth Day so do something different and plan an eco friendly date. Being ‘green’ or environmentally friendly is becoming more important to people as we are more aware of how our simple actions affect the environment.

You might think that an eco friendly date means a cheap one that you won't enjoy, but that isn't the case at all? Yes, some of our tips require less or no money involved but who says it won't be a fun date in the end? With a little bit of know how and effort you can go green on a date while having the time of your life.

Plan your own Earth hour
If you prefer staying in then get those candles out and turn everything off like you've done during Earth Hour. If it gets hot, especially without air conditioning, use some ice cubes to cool each other down, or brave that cold shower together. There's more than one way to keep cool at home and exploring some of these options are half the fun. Plus, you'll get the ultimate intimate session with nothing much around to distract you.

Getting ready
Instead of wasting energy by using the water heater, step into the shower and have a cold one instead. Make that shower and extra fun one by sharing it with your partner. Not only will you be getting wet and wild time, you'll be saving a lot of water at the same time. But if the moment gets too heated up, remember to turn off the shower before you proceed to the bedroom.
Another thing you can do is to resist that urge of blow drying your hair. Let it dry off naturally if you have a lot of time before heading out or, you can unwind the windows of your car on your way to that date. Nothing beats a natural and cost efficient way of hair styling.

Eco friendly undies
Yup, you read that right! Organic cotton, hemp silk, bamboo, and other renewable fibres make ultra-sexy lingerie and underwear. We suggest shelling out the extra bucks for something classy, sexy, and sustainable that can be donned when the mood is right for years to come rather than one off novelty panties that tatters in less than a year.

Ditch the car
Pack a couple of backpacks with an organic gourmet lunch for two, take those rusty bicycles out of the store room and head to the nearest park. When you reach your destination, find the best spot to sit on and whip out the picnic. Feed each other grapes, organic cheese and organic wine. Enjoy the peace and tranquility of nature and each other's company.

Green gifts
If you’re planning on giving that special someone a gift then try organic massage oils, fair trade chocolate or a bottle of biodynamic red wine. These items are available at organic shops which aren't a rarity in Malaysia.

Be crafty at home
Get crafty and use recycled paper and natural plant dyes to make one of a kind, green works of art. Use a scrapbook to put your first date pictures in or re-write those romantic emails on recycled paper. You can also find your inner child and play board games rather than watching TV. Don't stop there, dig out that old Twister board and make it a little more interesting. You never know what position you may find yourselves in!

Put on a green summer party!
Introduce your special someone to your friends and family, and show them what you stand for by being green. BBQ with 100% natural, additive-free charcoal or use gas or electric for a more environmentally friendly option. Choose organic, free range meats or go vegetarian. Portobello mushrooms are a great burger substitute. Use regular dishes, glass cups and cloth napkins. Go to a thrift store and buy an extra set of cheap dishes and napkins just for BBQ's and casual parties. Promote being responsible and eco-friendly, while having fun in your new relationship.

Eco friendly holidays
Eco resorts are a great way to minimize your carbon footprint. If you don't mind spending a bit more money, go on a holiday to these destinations.
Borneo Highlands Resort is a unique eco-friendly resort in Kuching and is also known as the home of The Hornbill Golf and Jungle Club, which has a world class championship golf course. If you are both golf fans, beginner or want to learn this resort offers the perfect eco-friendly date and after a day out on the fairway you can both take advantage of the jungle Spa.
If golf isn’t your thing then what about Bukit Merah? It is three hours outside of KL and boasts the only conservational orang-utan island in Peninsular Malaysia, a unique eco-park with educational walk-in enclosures and a lakeside camping ground for the more adventurous.

Why go for one-night stand?

What is the purpose of the one-night stand? Does it accomplish anything? I don't condone one-night stands; for me they've led to awkwardness, and self-loathing (of course I'm filled with self loathing without sex in my life, so what's the difference?).
I'm reluctant to accept "I was drunk" as the sole reason for a one night stand. Alcohol contributes to risky behavior or clouds judgment. As a depressant, it also enhances negative emotions. In light of this, there are temporary mindsets we should not mix with alcohol--mindsets that make us more vulnerable and prone to a one night stand.
Here they are:
Lonely Mentality
Sex can seem like a quick fix for loneliness. It's not that we feel validated when we have sex, but it is nice to know that we are attractive. That physical and mental intimacy, while fleeting, is nice in the moment. Unfortunately, though, when that person leaves your life, your loneliness intensifies.
Vengeful Mentality
It's pretty twisted, but sex can be used for revenge. Sleeping with that jerky ex's best friend, or some other "strategic" person to hurt someone else is the M.O. However, using people to hurt other people will only lead to a bad outcome.
Risk-taking Mentality
You know those periods in your life you're more inclined to take risks? Sex is sometimes risky behavior, along with drugs, alcohol, etc. It's unhealthy to take risks that impact the body and mind, but it's also thrilling.
Desiring Mentality
It's not always mental. Sometimes you just want to get laid. Unfortunately, for me, when I want to get laid, I don't. When I don't feel like getting laid, suddenly opportunities abound.
Liberated Mentality
You think you're over your ex, so you run out and exercise your rights to freedom. But if you're going to an extreme, such as having a one night stand, to prove you're over someone, then you are probably not really over them.
Closing the Loop Mentality
There are some people in your life with sexual tension. Things should have happened, but circumstances didn't permit at the time. All of a sudden, you've got an opportunity and you both know you have to do it. It's all about getting it out of your system.
I've had three one night stands in my life. They can all be traced back to a mentality above:
College - Freedom Mentality/Revenge Mentality - I had just broken up with my first serious girlfriend and I met a random girl at a party and slept with her, partially because I was free to do so, and partially because I wanted to (pun intended) stick it to my ex.
Italy - Risk-taking Mentality - Living abroad in Italy for two months, "what happened in Italy stayed in Italy". This was the most random encounter I ever had with a girl from Xavier University. That's the only thing I knew about her, that she attended Xavier.
High School Friend - Closing the Loop - I ended up having a one night stand with a girl I had dated in high school years later. We flirted for years and finally got the whole thing out of our systems.
The mindsets outlined above are about vulnerability. When we go away from home, feeling lonely, or just got dumped, the vulnerability feeds the one-night stand mentalities. The alarming thing is that there are guys out there who know how to sense this mindset in a woman. They intentionally look for vulnerable women with sex in mind, but no intention of dating or communicating afterward.
The other ingredient, of course, is animal attraction. But this attraction lives in us every day. We only act upon it when our mentality dictates it. So, I contend that a one night stand is 90% mental, even though it's a physical act.
I have outgrown one night stands. Sex without connection, laughter, love, compatibility, and mutual experience is empty. This explains why it's awkward the next day when everyone comes back down to earth.
Do you agree that one night stands are mostly mental? What mentalities would you add to the list, and what kinds of experiences have you or your friends had with one night stands? Did you ever have any that turned out well, or didn't lead to negative self-perception?
