What is it about speed that makes it so damn exciting? F1, the 100m sprint event and Sonic the 'super fast' Hedgehog... it all just seems so exhilarating. Sonic's SEGA Mega Drive 2D days are still heralded as the best in the series with the first 3D version, Sonic Adventure on the SEGA Dreamcast, being seen as the best 3D game in the franchise to date. Question is: what direction did the developers go with the latest installment?

 

Sonic Team, who have been working on this franchise since the first incarnation in 1991, have made it clear that they are going back to their roots with 2D elements being incorporated within a 3D universe. One could say 2.5D, something like Pandemonium, where you get the best of both worlds. Let's not beat about the bush, the bits that you play as Sonic 'The Hedgehog' are absolutely brilliant. From the beautiful coastal backdrops of the Mediterranean to the sky-scraping dragons in China, it is all presented in glorious detail at a pace that will peel your eyeballs back like onions.

 

The stages gradually increase in difficulty and become exceptionally tricky as you jump between 2D and 3D viewpoints. Everything seems to have more purpose now. Rings provide boost and boost blasts Sonic through enemies while drifting around corners and wall jumping in the process. It is one of the rare games, if not the only, where being out of control is actually a good thing; where split-second decisions determine triumphant discoveries or untimely deaths. It's divine to see the Hedgehog on top form again. But it is short lived, we're afraid.

 

There is a surprise 'shock' separation. You see, Sonic now has an alter ego – Sonic 'theWerehog? Erm... yes, not exactly what you were expecting? Sonic Unleashed has brought with it new RPG elements where day and night change Sonic's appearance from Hedgehog to Werehog. This is, so the story goes, after Dr Eggman, his arch enemy, transformed him into a werewolf-like creature with the power of the Chaos Emeralds.

 

The Werehog presents new gameplay features, but you won't be running at high speeds anymore. Instead you will be beating up enemies using basic button combinations in a hack and slash fashion, with the pace dropping down to walking speed. There are some interesting additional abilities like arms extending to grab ledges or pillars, similar to that of Mr Fantastic, and great for misjudged jumps. Together with this you can now pick up and carry items, sometimes walking slowly over beams, and position them in a noticeable opening that in turn opens a door or disables a force field.

 

With the day and night feature intervening, the worlds are quite confusing to get around in, which is a shame for younger gamers, to whom these bright and colorful worlds will appeal. Added to this are 'Sun' and 'Moon' spheres scattered all over the stages which also have a purpose... and they are sadly not optional.

 

To progress through to the next area you need a certain amount of spheres. Jumping back and forth between stages, including the annoying 'Werehog' ones that tend to host most of the spheres, challenges your patience instead of your skills. Unfortunately there are some modes that have been neglected such as an online mode. It might not work all that well playing this online with eight other players, but a Time Trial leaderboard would have been a splendid addition to add some replay value and show off your skills. Mirror's Edge is proof that online time trial modes can be very rewarding and push your skills to the limit.

 

It is clear that the 2D segments in the game stand out as the more memorable sections and sparkle with future promise. SEGA is on the right track once again, but we pray that this is the last time Sonic howls at the moon.

It seems too good to be true right? Exercise while enjoying a fun video game? Wii Fit seeks to do just that. Shigero Myamoto, the computer whiz behind Mario, Donkey Kong, and Zelda, has a new product that is aimed at everyone. Wii Fit goes along with the original Wii console and comes with a CD full of exercises, information, and a balance board. You get a 12-inch by 20-inch plastic slab that looks a lot like the steps used in aerobics classes. The balance board is used extensively in the game. All the exercises are done on the board or next to it. It senses whether you're correctly positioned, and even functions as a scale. The balance board will tell you your weight and body mass index when you first start using Wii Fit. In addition to balance games, Wii Fit offers strength training, yoga, and aerobics. With each category you will have four our five options to begin and as you progress you can "unlock" more options for each exercise.

Strength training, for example, allows you to choose between torso twists, lunges, jackknifes, single-leg extensions, and push-up/side plank combos. The balance board will tell you whether you are doing these exercises correctly. It counts how many times you do them and will offer general suggestions. For example, while doing a side plank it will tell you not to drop your hips.

Aerobic exercises start with a basic step, a run, or hula-hooping. All of these offer a fairly low level of cardio activity, but by advancing in the game it will offer you more and more difficult exercises

Balance games consist of the ski slalom run, a ski jump, table tilt, and soccer "heading" during which you butt the onscreen ball with your head. These are a key component to Wii Fit because they determine your fitness level throughout the game.

Although the Wii does offer several solutions for excellent home fitness that are fun and entertaining, this is only part of the equation if you are really trying to get more fit. As any fitness trainer will tell you, your diet is at least 80-90% responsible for making any real progress with your physical fitness. You need to pay attention to what you eat, staying away from fat, sugar, and empty calories. Try to eat plenty of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables each day in place of junk food.

If you want to really make a difference in your fitness level, it is wise to use your diet as a tool to help you. Protein supplements are a very common way to quickly and easily boost your protein level so that your muscles have the necessary fuel to grow. By increasing your lean muscle, you effectively increase your metabolism, which naturally helps your body to burn fat. Whey Protein is one of the best protein supplements you can buy. It is 90% protein and a naturally byproduct of dairy, so it is an all-natural, extremely efficient way to metabolize plenty of additional protein. With this kind of fuel, your Wii Fit workouts will be more pleasurable and you will see results faster than you ever thought possible.

There is a distinct mindset that separates the rich from the poor. It is that the rich have chosen to be paid for the results of their performance, but the poor have chosen to be paid for their time.

In the book Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, he debunks the idea of going to school to obtain good grades so you can have a great paying job with a regular paycheck, and then eventually retire. As most of you already know, that scenario usually does not work in today's economy.

It is okay to receive a steady paycheck, unless it keeps you from earning your true value. And that is the problem - it usually does! But people with a poor mindset prefer to trade time for money; they would rather have that consistent paycheck coming in to make them feel secure. Security is the issue for them, but there is a price to pay because you cannot typically reach your highest financial potential within that framework. The security issue is really based in fear – fear of thinking they cannot earn enough money to cover their needs. People with this mindset do not believe in their abilities to perform well enough to be paid for their performance. So they trade time for money and limit their earning potential because time is a limited commodity.

The reality is that most people who have made their millions earned it through their own business. The rich understand that you never want to be in a position that produces a ceiling on your income.

If you are one of those individuals who are paid hourly or by salary, you can begin to escape that scenario by proposing a compensation plan to your boss; at the minimum, you can be partially paid for your individual results. If that is not possible, start your own business, even if it is part-time, and that will still enable you to begin the process of reaching your full financial potential.

Implement one of these two strategies today and you will have created the pathway to financial freedom!

Sexual abuse is a major crime with long - term consequences. Sexual assault can be defined as any type of sexual behavior or contact that occurs without the consent of the recipient of unwanted sexual activity. Sexual activities such as forced sexual intercourse, child molestation, incest and attempted rape define sexual assault.

Globally, one out of three women is sexually abused in her lifetime. Going by the facts, 17.6 percent women in USA have been victims of attempted or completed rape. 3 percent of American men have experienced sexual assault.15% of sexual assault victims are under age 12. Not just the facts, but the aftermath is alarming.

Victims of sexual assault suffer from anxiety, stress, depression, bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. They are more likely to attempt suicide. It is extremely difficult to cope with the psychological response of the victims. Most of the survivors have feelings of self blame, guilt and shame.

The trauma of childhood sexual abuse can last for years. Generally the children feel self- distressed and lonely. In order to escape the feeling of guilt and self –hatred, the children often start consuming alcohol and drugs.

Recovering from sexual abuse is not an easy task. There are organizations that conduct recovery treatments and programs to help them come out of this trauma. The experienced and efficient staff members can help them resolve feelings of shame, guilt and depression.

The professionally trained clinicians design custom tailored plan for the individuals. They include medical and psychiatric treatment to rehabilitate the mind and body of the victims. Often these organizations offer holistic services such as spiritual counseling, meditation, breathing exercises and nutritional counseling.

Anybody suffering from this terrible crisis should visit a rehabilitation centre to add a new meaning to his/her life. Family members should be extremely supportive to help the sufferer come out of this trauma.

Bran Damaging Habits

Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Over eating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping

Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness

Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain.

I think all of you careful in future. Enjoy reading!
