“Fronting”: The dodge to get in close to you. The frontal assault, as opposed to the ambush.

Fronting can be either a direct confrontation (intimidation) or it can make use of “artifice”, i.e. “got a light?”, “got the time?”, “how do I get to such and such?” Anything “innocent” to throw you off your guard and allow the assailant to “get into your safety zone”. That is the area where action is ALWAYS faster than re-action.

The key here is NEVER TRUST anyone’s “intention”, NEVER!

It’s been a long time in coming. But finally, after more than a decade of sensational seasons, NBA superstar Kobe Bryant has finally won the illusive title of Most Valuable Player.

The Lakers star, who entered the league straight out of the Philadelphia area’s Lower Merion High School in 1996, has been a constant bright spot for the game. Since then, we’ve seen this boy grow into a powerhouse player right before the eyes of sports fans everywhere.

Arguably the best player in the world for several years, Bryant has been in the running annually but could never seem to acquire enough votes for the top spot.

Jesper Parnevik claims (and I believe him) that he walks straight off the course and into a nightclub. His golf clothing works on the course and off the course. Actually, whilst you’re probably not looking to hit the nightclub, there’s a good chance that you’re looking for more from your golf clothing than you previously did (and so you should).

This doesn’t mean taking your cue from GQ! It means understanding the technology (climate control and freedom of movement), and being able to choose clothing that supports your needs on-course and off-course.

Many of the people are yet to get familiar with the new activity flopping the dating scenes; speed dating. Life is really fast in some areas and certainly for some busy people out there. Speed dating is an alternative type of dating where one is exposed to a variety of potential people to date. It only allows time enough to get to quickly absorb the basic details of a potential date. This is a perfect arrangement for people who are not likely to meet their lovers in a bus, in a plane or elsewhere. It is mostly for people who know what they want in a relationship and are searching for people who don’t need a lot of convincing or cooing in order to get to date them. People are different. In any case you thought that every man thrills in chasing game, you are mistaken. It is hard to convince a mature man or woman to like you while dating is the last agenda on his mind.

Following on from my first article on belaying. The two methods of controlling the rope when holding a fall are the static belay and the dynamic belay.

The static belay does not allow the rope to run. It is used when a climber falls from a position below the belayer. When using this method, the belayer should bring their brake hand across his body immediately after the fall. Firmly holding the rope so that no rope runs through their hands. The belayer must prevent any slack between themselves and the climber if the static belay is to be effective. The energy produced by the fall is absorbed by the rope. This results in high impact forces, even in short falls.

The New York Giants, off their Super Bowl triumph, knew that some key personnel would have to get paid. One such member, Head Coach of the Champion New York Giants, Tom Coughlin, is ready to roll with a brand new deal, to the tune of $20 mil.

The New York Giants, with about a month left in the season, were probably not sure if they were even going to keep Tom Coughlin, much less grant him a Super Bowl-sized contract. Details are said to be a four-year deal, in the range of $20 million. Coughlin would be 65 years old at the end of the deal, as he is wrapping up a 4 year, $12 million contract, which ended in the New York Giants’ Super Bowl win. Timing is everything.

In the previous three Girls Basketball College Selection Tips articles, I have given 6 tips to consider when deciding what University to play basketball for. Here is another tip.

Academic Assistance

Sometimes it is forgotten that you are a student-athlete and not just a basketball player. Life as a student who is involved in athletics on a collegiate level is not easy. For example, consider this daily schedule. You have already been to one practice before class. After class, your class mates are heading back to the room to study or relax and you are heading to another two to three hour practice. You do not get the opportunity to relax nor study until late in the evening. Some may say that’s how it was when you where in high school. Trust me it is not the same. As you look at colleges, find out what kind of academic support is available, if any.

The business world is full of self-made prophecies that are seldom adhered too. ‘Don’t work with family’; that’s one of them. ‘Be weary of mixing business with pleasure’; that’s another one. Married East Midlands couple Sean and Julie Hutton are guilty on both counts, but they really don’t seem to care. “We love working with each other,” they say, with a natural confidence that exudes not only pride in their work, but also great success.
