Today everyone has a cell phone and are able to be reached at anytime of day. This has lead to an increased amount of telemarketer calls and even anonymous texts from folks that you may not want. And now with the political campaigns heating up and the latest law that passed where all cell phone numbers are now public unless you take action to block it you may see a rise in the number of calls you will receive.Luckily you may have a simple solution to lookup those numbers through a service called callerbase.com. Through their reverse lookup database you  can trace annoying prank calls or telemarketers and let them know that you no longer wish to take their calls. You can use their service in the US and Canada and all lookups are 100% confidential.

Last year this is how the playoffs looked about this time of year. Now the Cowboys are in much better shape to capture the NFC title. The playoffs are set and the NFC East comes limping into the playoffs. Many people are placing bets with online casinos for the title game coming up.Dallas looks to get an early exit after their awful play the last few weeks. The NY Giants backed their way into the playoffs. After starting off 6-2, they then lost 6 of their last 7. And the Eagles are hoping that the journeyman QB, Jeff Garcia, will be able to create more magic.  This years playoffs will see some good match ups, but the NFC will definitely be the under dog, as their only hope is the Chicago Bears. They remind me of the Tampa Bucs, when they won because of their defense. The Bears QB, Rex Grossman, will not be able to win the game, just as long as he does not loose it for the Bears and keeps them close. The San Diego Chargers with LT, will make it to the AFC championship on the legs of the best running back in the league.

I just finished reading, Now, Discover your strengths, and can say that this is a must read for all those who manage people. There is a special website and code on the back of the book cover that will allow you to take a simple test to discover your strengths, and then how to hone and sharpen those strengths. The basic premise is that we need to focus and continually improve the strengths, not focus on how to improve a persons weaknesses. The great benefit I found is that it gives you the different types of profiles and how to manage to those people.

We were just reading a report on MSNBC that the stars of Zach Efron and Vanessa Hudgens may be holding out for more money if there is a High School Musical 3. This is the start of things to come as cast members gain fame and forget how and why they got there. The kids who love these characters do not understand the business of Hollywood and it would be tragic to let the kids stars ruin the rest of the casts ability to carry on. More to come.

I am sure Danny and Sandy would have never made such a request.

Based on the popularity of Disney’s hit High School Musical 2 this could be the “Grease” for the new millennium. A reported 200 million people have seen the first High School musical and the second is well on it’s way to breaking those records. There are already plans to have a movie and additional follow-ups to this hugely successful. My kids love this show and have the first one on DVD and will sure to get the newest one when it comes out along with the music CD. While I see the story line continuing it could make for some interesting times as the characters get older. Do you introduce new characters, or just let the story  line end once they all head off to college.

Winning

We have included an excerpt from a poem that I received over 15 years ago. I do not know who the author is but I read this almost everyday:Winning is helping someone who’s downIt’s sharing a smile instead of a frown

It’s giving your children a hug by the fire

And sharing the values and dreams that inspire

It’s giving your parents the message ” I care

Thanks, Mom and Dad, for being so fair”

Just some positive words for our readers!

Being a new blogger, Bloggerwave will be a great place for me to get started. I think that having the ability to give my opinion about a wide variety of different subjects will be fun and it will also give me the chance to learn about new things. The best part of all this is that I get paid to do it.

For many people today getting on the internet has become part of their daily routines. You get up, shower, and then check your email.

This is a development in progress, and it will probably take on many new faces and directions. Please take a moment to click on over to Community Thought and let us know what you think. we also hope to be able to incorporate consumer generated media in our content, and make a quick refernce for sources that promote and provide avenues for CGM.

Last night as we saw results from the elections, I was amazed at how early the news sources were calling most of the races. There was one in Ohio, where they showed the Republican Congressman ahead by 5K votes, with only 1% of the precincts, but had made the call that the Democratic challenger had already won? WHAT? I nearly threw my remote through the TV. The left wing media should give the American public some credit and not start to insult our intellegince with such rhetoric.

While the outcome of the mid-year elections were not in favor of the Republicans, the public has spoken and the war was obviously playing a big part. The great part of about our country is that we are free to vote, and express our opinions, and I think some people forget that freedom comes with a price. We will wait and see what the public sentiment is when the Presidential elections take place. I hope that we can see past the negativity and elect those who will not be afraid to take a stand for the country.
