Tibetan Yoga- a relaxing way to get into (or stay in) shape

One of the oldest forms of yoga is Yantra Yoga. This yoga was first practiced in Tibet and is one of the oldest recorded yoga systems in existence. I had the privilege of trying out two of their instructional DVDs recently.

Both DVDs were of the Tibetan Yoga Movement series, part 1 and 2. These discs introduce the viewer to the system of Yantra Yoga. This system consists of seven phases of movement which are connected to seven phases of breathing. This series teaches us the seven phases. The first three in level one and the remainder in level two. Level one should be done first, by the way. No skipping.

This is a learning/meditating/exercising/relaxation technique, [Read more…]

Don’t be censored – Take a stand and #stopSOPA, it affects us all.

If passed, the law would give greater powers to the U.S.
government to essentially blacklist foreign websites accused of hosting copyright-infringing content.

All you have to do is be accused of infringement and poof…you’re shut down. The laws are excessive and would essentially make it impossible for sites such as Twitter, YouTube and Flickr to exist in their current form. Anyone who uses the internet is affected in some way.
Because the legislation could punish someone who links to a site that happens to also host copyrighted content, those doing the linking could [Read more…]

Training My New Dog Update! #CBias #iLoveMyK9

Last time we went shopping for new treats and now its time to find out how this training is working out.
Well first of all, Leela hasn’t gotten out of the yard in a while. She is still a work in progress. She is picking up on some new basic commands like leave it, wait, come, and in. She already had a few down but needed some obedience training in general and some listening training with the kids. The kids work with her as often as the adults do, and you can tell, she is doing better with listening to the kids. And she really loves the Milk-Bone

Nuclear CowBoyz- a show that’s not your average fare

Looking for something a little different? Maybe something a with a little more volume, more power, more….fire? Let me suggest to you Nuclear Cowboyz– a show that will not leave you wanting. You want to get pumped, see some action, and be blown away by incredible stunts! Who needs yet another night watching some junk movie or TV show when you can experience it LIVE- Nuclear Cowboyz!

Not cowboys in the traditional sense- but more like urban cowboys. Let me tell you, these bikers don’t mess around- they know their way around the ring.
This amazing cast of performers and athletes work to put on a show that will blow your mind- and if that were not enough, the pyrotechnics sure will! Accompanied by the lovely lady Cowgirlz, this is a show for all the senses, complete with pulse pumping rock music, lasers, and flames blasting the air.

Become drawn in to a turn war between two rival bike tribes- the Metal Mulisha and the Soldiers of Havoc- who are returning to this event, staged in Los Angeles in 2150. If the never ending battle for supremacy is not enough action for you, then the entrance of the evil (though enticing) Tempest and her Cyborg Army will keep you on the edge of your seats. Who will reign and rule the city? The tribes fight to stay free, but are forced to make an unlikely alliance in order to attempt to defeat this siren.

Watch gravity defying stunts, [Read more…]
