Sea Eagle Paddle Ski Kayak: a Good Way to Unwind

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

There was this one incident that I would never forget. I messed up at work and I don’t know if I can still have that position. It was really the worst day of my life and I had no one to run to. Good thing my dad came for a surprise visit and asked me to go with him. He wanted me to check his brand new Sea Eagle PaddleSki kayak.

I know it’s not a perfect timing but I could use the time to get my mind off the problem.

Dad and I had a wonderful time together. I enjoyed the smoothness of the water and the gushing of the wind. He sensed that I was not in a good mood and I told him everything.

He promised to buy me my own Sea Eagle paddle ski to cheer me up. He really knows how to make me feel better ever since I was a little boy.

Soccer Training Begins with the Basics

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011

As a former professional soccer player I get asked all the time how people, players, kids, anybody and everybody, how they can improve their game and I always tell them the same answer. Soccer is about mastering the ball so really start with the basics. Learning and practicing effective soccer training drills is something you should really do every time you step onto the field and that should be at least 3 times a week on your own.

Just look at all the players you see in the league your in or even on your team. How many of those players are actually skilled with the ball with both feet equally? How many of those players are able to rocket a shot with both left and right feet? Well this all starts when you are young but no matter what age you are, you need to always be working on your weaker foot as well. This will elevate your game far beyond the average or even great players.

I decided to pick up some backpacking gear, because I wanted to take my family hiking for the first time, because I thought it was going to be a great bonding experience for all of us, and also I wanted my children to see what it’s like to spend time outdoors. I had been an avid outdoorsman most of my life, but once I got married I found that the demands on my time prevented me from getting to spend much time doing the things that I was used to as a bachelor. However, now that my children were getting older, I thought that this would be the perfect time to take them on a hiking trip and I had planned out a really nice and relaxing hike for all of us. My family was really excited about the trip as well, and we of course had a great time and are planning on doing it again real soon.

Starcraft 2 Guide of Strategies – Banelings

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

One of the most fun units to use in the game is indeed banelings. They are zerg ground units that are unique from any other unit in the game because they are self destructive units.

They do a lot of damage especially against structures. They are gas heavy so if you plan on going for early banelings which is very common for zerg players be sure to get two extractors quickly. A baneling nest will enable you to spawn banelings with zerglings.

They can be spawned anywhere on the map. There is a very popular strategy known as the baneling bust which you may learn about in detail inside a starcraft 2 strategy guide.

It is pretty simple and effective especially against terran players as they will always wall off their base against zerg to avoid the zergling rush. Once they wall off you can blow up with supply depots with banelings and then send in a fleet of zerglings for harassment.

A Disaster in the Kitchen

Saturday, November 20th, 2010

Sometimes, I just do not think that I am cut out for cooking and baking, as yet another disaster in the kitchen confirmed the other day. This time it was bread making, and despite using the best stand mixer and following the instructions precisely for making bread, once more I ended up with something that looked a little, but tasted quite entirely, unlike food!

It’s not like I don´t try either. I really do put my every effort into it, and yet I seem incapable of cooking anything more complicated than a packet if instant noodles. Even then, I run the risk of burning the water. Yes, I am that bad! I should actually have my own TV show, where it shows my recent disasters in the kitchen. It would be far more entertaining than watching a professional chef get things right! Anyhow, it’s off to the shops to buy some bread that neither looks nor tastes like concrete!

Pros and Cons of Bruder Trucks

Sunday, October 31st, 2010

If you’re a parent you are constantly on the hunt for great toys for your kids. You’re also aware of how rough kids can be on their toys.

So how do you make a decision about something like Bruder trucks which are admittedly quite realistic, but are fairly well known to be made of somewhat inferior materials? It’s great to give your son or daughter a realistic garbage truck that they can actually pick up trash with. But it’s not much fun to see that same toy break in just under an hour.

But all is not lost. Why not teach them to appreciate the aesthetic beauty of their toys? You can also use the trucks to teach them about the quality of craftsmanship and that while a toy may look beautiful, it’s sometimes important to consider the function of that toy and whether or not that toy is a good value for the money.

I’m not saying that the kids will fully understand any of these lessons. But there’s certainly no harm in trying to instill those kinds of ideas early on.
