Here is a 4-step process to help you hone your ability to sell successfully.
1. Start with the end in mind by "thinking like a closer."
Your 30-secs Elevator Sales Pitch is Dead... Fix it now!
The stinky, old and boring elevator sales pitch is dead. Yet, most sales people are still using it! Duh!
Refer to these 4 tips to strategise and create a sales pitch that doesn't sound like it was written in 1900s.
"The elevator speech is dead, or at least it should be," says Cliff Suttle, author of The Anti-Elevator Speech. "Elevator speeches are too long, too boring, and too pushy."
Based on his sales training, he said, "Most sales trainer highlighted that an elevator speech is a pre-planned 30-second-to-two-minute response to the question 'So what do you do?'". Business people today have become hyper-sensitive to commercials. If anything even hints at being sales-y or fake sounding, people will tune out. "The goal of networking is not to gather sales leads, but to start genuine relationships and that begins with a conversation, not a sales pitch." says Suttle.
It was a busy Wednesday and I received a call from a Sales Manager from a software company who is prospecting me and called me for a sales appointment. His purpose of calling me is to meet me. When I asked for what purpose? He said, "I want to meet you to find out more about your business." I replied, "Ok, understood and for what purpose?" and he got stucked with no answer.
I asked him, "Is that all? Is this how you sell? What is your results?". This guy became very uncomfortable and started apologising.
Folks, if you are out there to create value for the world, selling is a skill you must constantly develop! Always research the person, company or industry before you call them and "KNOW WHY" you are calling them. Don't waste people's time!
1. Gratitude. Today I am thankful for all the wonderful things in my life: my sight, my voice, my hearing, my experiences, my brain, my existence, my health, my home, my family, my mastermind brothers, my friends, my colleagues, my customers, my business, my home, my mentees, my mentors, my advisers, my successes and, yes, my work.
2. Creativity & Learning. Today I will seek opportunities to think and do something new and different and thereby changing the world for the better. I read positive quotes and schedule posting of those quotes that resonates with me. I also seek to learn at least 1 thing everyday.

Brooke Baldwin Reflects Back on Her CNN Story
Brooke Baldwin Reflects on Her CNN Story
The journalist and new author is saying goodbye to the network after a decade in the anchor seat.
By Wendy Kaur Published: Apr 6, 2021
Brooke Baldwin's job is everything a journalist dreams about. She has met with presidents, and interviewed first ladies, members of Congress, astronauts, scientists, and activists. She has traveled the country and world covering everything from natural disasters to terrorist attacks. On a slow news day, she might enjoy a little light banter with actors and rock stars. But Baldwin doesn't let any of this get to her head. "I'm a Southern girl," she tells me. "So I grew up with the saying: 'You best not get too big for your britches.'"
Baldwin's southern sensibility also doesn't allow her to take anything for granted. "I'm privileged to have a front row seat to history and grateful to have a platform that allows me to engage in difficult dialogue, and to listen and observe," she says. It's a Friday afternoon in March and I'm speaking with Baldwin via Zoom from her CNN office in New York City. Wearing a T-shirt that's emblazoned with Stevie Nicks, she looks a lot more casual than I'm used to seeing her on television. Her weekday show, CNN Newsroom with Brooke Baldwin, airs in the middle of the afternoon when news often breaks, so she's frequently on camera experiencing historic moments with the rest of us in real time. So when Baldwin looks down at her phone a couple of times, saying "I'm sorry, my phone is blowing up," I think, It must be breaking news, and perk up in my seat. But not exactly. "I had a crazy dream of a day last week guest-hosting The Ellen Show and it's airing as we speak, so I'm getting tons of messages," she laughs.
In reality, Baldwin has been living her dream since 2008. "I was born and raised in Atlanta," she says, where CNN is headquartered. "For as long as I can remember, all I ever wanted was to be a CNN anchor and have this unique window to the world." Some of her assignments have certainly been out there. "When I was covering the 2016 election, I interviewed the group Bikers For Trump in Ohio, where I found myself riding on the back of a Harley Davidson emblazoned with TRUMP," she says. "Later, when I was assigned to cover Trump's motorcade at his inauguration, I was stationed on the back of a moving flatbed truck a couple of feet away from his limo." Hanging out on musician Willie Nelson's tour bus was a dream come true and so was creating her digital series American Woman for CNN a few years ago. For two seasons, she sat down with a succession of trailblazing women, including voting rights activist Stacey Abrams, Oscar-nominated filmmaker Ava DuVernay, and fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg.

With a career like that, it's no wonder many viewers were thrown for a loop when Baldwin abruptly announced on air in February that she would host her final newscast on April 16. "It was a painful moment when I made the decision because working for the network has been my calling for so many years," Baldwin tells me.
Even as far back as 2001, when she graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, she was certain she would one day call the network home. "I knew in my bones that I was going to be a journalist and that one day I would work at CNN," she says. Baldwin felt like an anomaly among her sorority sisters who had a more relaxed approach to their futures. "They were more like 'Oh, we might do this or we might do that,'" she says. "Their plan was to more or less wing it in New York and live a Sex and the City kind of life." But if Baldwin was going to be on TV, she knew she would have to head in another direction, so she made her way to the stepping stone city of Charlottesville, Virginia working at a small news station.
At first, she found the industry less welcoming than she hoped. "I grew up watching Oprah Winfrey, Barbara Walters, Diane Sawyer, and Katie Couric," she tells me. "All of these women had already broken the glass ceiling in television, so I naively assumed the door was wide open for women in this field. I thought there would be this huge support system with tons of women in newsrooms and that I would go out into the TV world and crush it. But it was so not like that." Instead, Baldwin found that like many white collar jobs, journalism was largely male-dominated ("and still is," she adds). "There was a scarcity mentality among women who felt they needed to be ambitious and focused on landing the few available spots to us," Baldwin explains.

In Charlottesville, when Baldwin was assigned to the prized beat of Albemarle County—"the biggest county"—she was thrilled. "I was excited for the chance to report on crimes, court cases and property disputes," Baldwin says. But before she could begin reporting in earnest, the beat was snatched away. "The rumor was that a female colleague of mine had gone behind my back and convinced the bosses that the spot should be hers," she says. Baldwin was blindsided and furious, not because she felt she deserved the job more, but because she felt there should have been room for both women. "I wish she had just come to me," Baldwin says. "We could have worked something out like splitting the beat as partners or we could have rotated on and off."
In hindsight, Baldwin can better see why her colleague did what she did. "It was a response to an environment in which we were both struggling to be seen and heard," she says. "But that was the beginning of my 'Oh man, this isn't going to be as girlie kumbaya as I thought it was going to be.' It knocked me back a little—and probably in a good way because I needed to develop some thicker skin to prepare myself for the next few years."
On the cusp of turning 30, Baldwin moved back to her childhood home in Atlanta to pursue her singular lifelong desire: working at the one and only CNN. "I had spent the previous eight years scraping for airtime in Virginia, West Virginia and Washington DC.," she says. "I had lived alone in tiny apartments—at one point with my baby brother, and other points bunking with sympathetic friends." Baldwin's plan was to move back home and freelance her way into a stable job with the network. "I did a lot of hustling and started working for the network two days a week. One day I could be thrown into a story about gun laws changing in Georgia and the next day I'd anchor international news at 2 a.m.," she says. "But I would show up every day to put my name on a Post-It note on a temporary office door. I was trying to convince myself that I owned the place when I so didn't," she says laughing.

But after working her "ass off for a year," nothing permanent was coming through. "I had left a decent job in D.C. for this," she says. "I was trying to move my career forward but it felt more like a step backwards; I was very discouraged." But that wasn't the whole story. "My boyfriend of three years had recently cheated on me and I felt so defeated that I took him back—which only added to the indignity of the situation." And for the kicker: the boyfriend also happened to have a full-time job at CNN. "Every single day, I jealously watched him clock into the life I wanted."
The drama was too much to bear. "One day I slumped into the yellow chair in my mom's bedroom and cried my eyes out," Baldwin says. "I'm not a quitter, but that was the closest I came to quitting my pursuit of my dream job. I was just so tired of all the clawing." That moment was also the culmination of the loneliness of her twenties, she says. But Baldwin's mother talked her out of quitting. "I'm grateful I had the advice and soft landing of my mother's support—especially at a time when her marriage of forty years to my dad was also dissolving," Baldwin remembers. "She also may have consoled me with some Disney lyrics," she laughs.
As her fairytale would have it, just a few weeks later, Baldwin got a call to be the fill-in anchor for the weekends. She also started serving as a part-time correspondent in the studio to Rick's List, a hit news and commentary show hosted by Rick Sanchez. About a year later, when she was just 31 years old, Baldwin would be offered the full-time anchor spot. As she says: "The rest is history."

The job has been everything she has wanted it to be, and then some. "I spent much of 2015 and 2016 covering the wildest presidential election we reporters thought we would ever see in our lifetime—until 2020 rolled around," she says dryly. "I've also covered the pandemic and had COVID myself in April last year." A decade in the anchor's seat has also changed her as a person: "I've reported on far too many school shootings, but I've also become friends with some of the survivors," she says.
Even though CNN has been a huge part of her life for so long, Baldwin believes the time has come to move on. "Dreams change," she says. "When I interviewed all of those amazing women for American Woman, they weren't the kind of women who were just going to sit there and be interviewed," Baldwin tells me. "They would say: 'Okay, tell me about you. What makes you tick and tell me about your platform.' It did something to my soul and it led to some really deep inward thinking and dialogue. That was when I started to realize that CNN perhaps wasn't my calling anymore. It was a little scary."
Brooke Baldwin Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power
Baldwin has been pursuing another passion behind the scenes: on April 6 she will be releasing her book, Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power, about the power women can possess when they join forces. "Over the last five years in the background of all the breaking news, I've noticed a growing phenomenon of women in politics, activist circles, sports, Hollywood and many other walks of life coming together to incite meaningful change in their fields," she says. "I chose the word 'huddle' to describe these groups of women because it's essentially a masculine word: we automatically think of men strategizing and motivating each other on a football field. I wanted to flip the word on its head, and for women to feminize and own the word."
Over the course of doing American Woman and writing the book Baldwin says she realized that she can't be in the same space as these amazing women and not be the best possible version of herself. "But I'll be the first to admit that I have no idea what this next version of me will look like," she laughs. "Whatever I do, I know it's going to involve diving into the deep end of storytelling, and having more time and space with extraordinary Americans." She says that could involve writing another book or creating content on a network. "It might even mean doing a talk show," she tells me. Sounds like CNN might have some new competition.

Nicole Kidman Shared an Emotional Instagram of Keith Urban Amid Major 'Voice' News
Keith Urban is saying goodbye to The Voice Australia, and Nicole Kidman has his back. On October 8, the country singer performed in Nashville, Tennessee for his world tour "The Speed of Now." After paying a heartfelt tribute to the late Loretta Lynn, Keith was joined by his wife behind the scenes.
She later shared the sweet private moment with a candid Instagram picture posted on the heels of Keith revealing that he is leaving The Voice Australia ahead of season 12 to focus on his family and music. "On tour backstage Nashville, Tennessee 🖤," Nicole captioned the Instagram snap.
Reacting to the intimate glimpse of the couple, fans immediately took to the comments section to share their thoughts. "Seeing the love and support you give to each other warms my heart," one person wrote. "Like pieces in a jigsaw. You both just fit. ❤," another added. "They are so cute and perfect together. ❤❤," a different fan said.
Speaking with The Sunday Telegraph, Keith opened up about the different projects he has in the pipeline, including the Australian leg of his tour that was postponed in December 2020, working on a new album for a 2023 release, and spending Christmas with loved ones.
A post shared by Nicole Kidman (@nicolekidman)
"Unfortunately the timing of it means that I won't be able to come back for this next season of The Voice," he told the outlet. "My mum just turned 80 and Nic's mom, who knows how many Christmases we get with anybody ever but particularly with our moms, I really cherish that chance to spend [Christmas] with them and our family in [Australia]."
A post shared by The Voice Australia (@thevoiceau)
But Keith's latest career announcement doesn't necessarily mean that he's done with the singing competition show. As folks may know, after joining The Voice Australia for season 1, he departed from the series. The "Blue Ain't Your Color" vocalist later returned for season 10 and season 11.
"I actually don't think of it as the end of a chapter at all because I love doing the show," he said. "I feel very close to everybody on the set and hopefully the door can stay open because I would jump back in a heartbeat."
In the meantime, Keith is looking ahead at what the rest of the year looks like with Nicole and their daughters Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret while The Voice Australia gears up to discover more talent.

The chaos engulfing Iraq, where a brutal radical Islamist group seems poised to take power, has led to a predictable political blame game in the United States and lent new urgency to the debate about U.S. foreign policy and the wisdom of interventionism. Right now, those who believe American leadership has generally made the world a better place are on the defensive. Yet the complicated truth is that abandoning leadership may lead to even worse results.
In a New Republic essay titled "Superpowers Don't Get to Retire," Brookings Institution fellow and "liberal hawk" Robert Kagan warns against retrenchment, arguing that the post-World War II "liberal world order" established under U.S. stewardship created unprecedented peace and prosperity in Europe and Asia. My Reason magazine colleague Jesse Walker offers a trenchant critique of Kagan on the libertarian magazine's website, pointing out that his account of 20th century history leaves out places where America's role was far less positive — such as Latin America, the Middle East and parts of Asia, where the United States supported repressive dictatorships, most notoriously the Pinochet regime in Chile.
Walker makes a persuasive case that Kagan's account of U.S. leadership and its effects is "prettified" to the point of inaccuracy. But Walker's rendering leaves a major unanswered question. In the cases he cites as examples of negative U.S. influence, it was the global contest between the West and the Communist bloc that had disastrous effects on liberty and self-government. What would have been the effects of American non-intervention or retrenchment under those circumstances, essentially leaving the field to totalitarian regimes?
Historical what-ifs rarely have clear answers. But a further expansion of the Soviet empire with no significant resistance would have likely prolonged communism's life and created more repressive dictatorships. South Korea during the Cold War was not a nice place, but it was a paradise compared to North Korea.
The leading anti-interventionist in the Republican Party, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, has invoked Ronald Reagan's legacy as one of leadership and restraint in foreign affairs. Another libertarian critic, Daniel Bier, points out on the Mediaite website that Reagan's foreign policy had its own share of disasters. Yet the fact remains that the West's Cold War victory, which Reagan helped bring about, was a definitive if imperfect victory for freedom. Today, there is no clear contest between "the free world" and a totalitarian empire; but there are many anti-freedom forces whose ascendancy is bad for the people within their immediate reach and the world, including the United States. In our age of globalized business, trade and culture — and, unfortunately, globalized terror — no retrenchment can shield America from the effects of crises abroad.
To think that liberty and peace would triumph in most of the world without American meddling is no less naive than to think that we can export democracy if we just find the right formula. History shows that freedom, human rights and peace are not the natural state of humanity; they are rare and hard-won achievements. American leadership has not always promoted these values, and has often compromised them in foreign conflicts with no identifiable "good guys." But a world with a drastically reduced American presence is unlikely to be a kinder, gentler place.
Perhaps the only palatable answer is that we need both the hawks and the anti-interventionists to keep each other in check. Superpowers may not get to retire, but they must learn prudence.

David Bowie – Never Let Me Down (2018) REVIEW
Ben Gurney· October 22, 2018
There's been a new David Bowie album out this month. That's a strange sentence to type, knowing that the man himself passed away more than two years ago, but it's true: Never Let Me Down '18 released on October 12th as part of a new compilation by Parlophone Records.
It's not a new album in the conventional sense; there are no songs on this one that haven't been heard before. In fact, it's a track-for-track re-release of Bowie's 1987 album Never Let Me Down – an album that Bowie himself called his "nadir" and "an awful album". Why all the fuss then? Well, this is no simple remaster; the album has been remade from the ground up, with almost every musical element except for Bowie's vocals re-arranged and re-recorded in an attempt to improve on the late musician's work.
This does raise some ethical questions. Though Bowie expressed a desire to "redo" the album before his death, is it fair to do so in his name? Can one improve somebody else's art? And is it right to profit from the attempt? The cynic in me would believe that Parlophone are wringing the legacy of David Bowie dry. However, a slew of Bowie's former friends and collaborators were involved in this release. It features Mario J. McNulty (who worked directly with Bowie on remixing the track 'Time Will Crawl' back in 2008), Reeves Gabriels (Bowie's bandmate during the Tin Machine years), Sterling Campbell (who toured with Bowie's band for over a decade) — the list goes on. I can only imagine that, for most of the people responsible, Never Let Me Down '18 was an earnest (though perhaps misguided) attempt to vindicate one of Bowie's lesser works.
So, how did they do?
Right off the bat there are some promising results. The synth horns and strings on track one (Day in Day Out) have been replaced with recorded instruments, and they sound delicious. Track two (Time Will Crawl) follows in strong fashion with a new emphasis on guitar and drums that vamp up the original's intensity. These first two tracks are fresh and exciting yet feel authentic to the mood of Bowie's originals.
Unfortunately, this feeling of authenticity slips as we move further into the album. The stadium-like drama of Zeroes is eschewed for a more down-to-earth mix. The campy synth of Glass Spider is stripped and replaced with an industrial rock soundscape that calls Nine Inch Nails to mind. Mickey Rourke's ridiculous rap bridge (yes, that's a thing) on the track Shining Star (Makin' My Love) has been scrapped entirely, replaced with new vocals by Laurie Anderson. While personal taste will dictate whether or not these changes make for a better collection of songs, the character of the album has undeniably been altered. Eighties bombast has been replaced with something more modern-sounding and occasionally drab.
Listening to the two albums side by side, it is evident that the remake misses something of the original's charm. And yet, there are some very interesting changes to be found on the new version. Is Never Let Me Down '18 an improvement on the original? No. But does it offer some lively new interpretations of old classics? Yes.
Newcomers should stick to Bowie's original, warts and all, but this version of Never Let Me Down offers a fun new take for fans and enthusiasts.

Amongst probably the most frequent electrical wiring questions is on how to wire a switch. While applying switches in your house is sort of simple, wiring one particular might not be that quick for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is definitely quite simple to wire. You'll find various kinds of switches, but for this instance, let us say you might be installing a single-pole toggle switch, an incredibly typical swap (along with the easiest).
You will discover 3 hues of wires in the standard single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and green. Splice the black wire in two and hook up them around the terminal screws - one particular on prime as well as the other to the bottom screw from the swap. The white wire serves being a source of uninterrupted electricity and it is typically linked into a light-weight colored terminal screw (e.g., silver). Connect the green wire towards the ground screw of your respective change.
These actions would generally be sufficient to create a standard swap operate without having a dilemma. However, should you are certainly not self-assured that you simply can complete the job correctly and safely you better allow the pros do it as an alternative. Just after all, there is a reason why this activity is without doubt one of the commonest electrical wiring inquiries questioned by most of the people.
For a few cause, ways to wire a ceiling fan is additionally one among probably the most prevalent electrical wiring questions. To simplify this activity, you need to use an individual swap for a single ceiling fan. To wire the admirer, it can be merely a make any difference of connecting the black wire with the ceiling fan on the black wire on the swap. When there is a light-weight, the blue wire must be related to your black wire in the change also.
You will discover good reasons why these are by far the most usually asked electrical wiring issues. 1, many consider it can be simple to accomplish, and two, these are the popular electrical jobs in your own home. But then you shouldn't put your protection at risk in the aim to save cash. The stakes could even be a great deal bigger in case you try and save cash and do an electrical wiring work without having enough information or knowledge.

In early summer 1929, O'Keeffe traveled from New York to northern New Mexico, having first seen the area in 1917, when she returned to Texas from a vacation in Colorado. As she later explained:
When I got to New Mexico that was mine. As soon as I saw it that was my country. I'd never seen anything like it before, but it fitted to me exactly. It's something that's in the air, it's different. The sky is different, the wind is different. I shouldn't say too much about it because other people may be interested and I don't want them interested."
O'Keeffe spent the summers of 1929 and 193o in Taos, exploring areas to the south by car. She sketched and painted the sand hills and majestic mountains in and around Alcalde and Abiquiu, and in 1931, she stayed in Alcalde.

There's a lot of tea leaf reading to be done about the decision to move this match from Summerslam to Raw, and then have the rematch at Summerslam with Tozawa as champ. On one hand, it's a demotion, but on the other hand, would it have gotten lost in the shuffle, but on the third hand, Brooklyn smarks might have loved it. It was an OK match, but I'm still not sold on Titus Worldwide being a group of faces. The celebration on 205 died several deaths as Titus tried to keep the crowd engaged until Neville's interruption.
I haven't been super into the will they won't they romcom that is Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose getting back together, but the reunion this week worked for me because it was so hilariously dewy-eyed and melodramatic. Plus, a hot Boston crowd helped. Weird that they still do their fist bump at like a 60 degree angle as if to leave room for Roman Reigns even though that's never gonna happen.
I can see this two ways. First, getting away from the MitB briefcase being a sure thing is probably a good idea, so having guys screw up their cash-ins every once in a while is fine. But given that history, it's hard not to see what happened on Smackown as a demotion for Corbin. Which is fine by me. Never been the biggest Corbin fan, although he's certainly progressed to "acceptgable" since his callup.
We all knew that was going to be the call, but her match defeating Nia Jax for the spot was fantastic.
Finn Balor lost clean to Bray Wyatt, then had a bucket of fake blood that the announce3rs refused to call blood poured over him in what was, admittedly, the best spooky stunt Wyatt's pulled in over a year. Unfortunately, WWE's need to tell, not show, led to first, Balor talking backstage about he has demons, then the announcers wondering if that means what they think it means, and then a full on promo card showing Balor in Demon mode. Way to ruin a good thing, WWE.
Big Show's Hand Is "Broken"
Anderson and Gallows, in pure Nothing Better To Do mode (see, als, Hardys tagging with Jason JOrdan), helped Big Cass break Big Show's hand before their Summerslam match. Not sure what this means for the outcome.

The UK and US have come to an agreement regarding open skies following Brexit. The new deal will replace the existing European Union (EU) aviation agreement with the US.
The deal guarantees that aircraft flying the transatlantic route out of the UK will have the same access to the US as they currently have, allowing airlines to continue to operate between the two continents.
The other agreements that have been finalised are with Albania, Georgia, Iceland, Israel, Kosovo, Montenegro, Morocco and Switzerland. Discussions with Canada are at an "advanced stage", according to the Department for Transport (DfT).
According to the BBC, the deal allows for EU majority-owned airlines to continue operations on existing routes between the UK and US, as long as they remain in the ownership of EU or UK nationals. Airlines that do not meet this requirement will need to seek a waiver from the US government.

Kyle Busch Talks Racing Ahead Of Re-Signing With Joe Gibbs And Mars
Andy Frye Contributor
I do Q&A's with pro athletes. I've written previously for ESPN.com and Rolling Stone

It's safe to say you'll see NASCAR's Kyle Busch wearing more yellow for quite some time. The Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) star driver of the No. 18 M&M's Toyota will remain in partnership with Mars Incorporated. The company announced today that it has re-upped its relationship with JGR and the 2015 NASCAR Cup Series champion with a multi-year extension, while Busch also re-signed with the JGR team.
Since his debut with JGR and Mars Incorporated, Busch, who is also known by the nickname "Rowdy" among fellow drivers, has clocked 40 wins behind the wheel of Mars sponsored race cars. In addition to an unforgettable 2015 in which Busch come back from injury to win his first season Championship, Busch became the first ever Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series driver to win on every track where he has raced. Adding to that, Sunday Busch won his 52nd NASCAR Truck Series race, constituting a new record.
"Since the start of our partnership together in 2008, our relationship has been strong," said Joe Gibbs, owner of Joe Gibbs Racing. "As a team owner, the hope is (always) to find partners and drivers that help us grow as an organization." Gibbs also called the relationship "one of the longest partnerships in all of sports."
"This relationship started over a decade ago and we have experienced more success than any of us ever thought possible," said William Clements, Global Vice President, Sponsorship & Family Properties, Mars Incorporated. Clements called partnering with Joe Gibbs Racing and Busch a unique opportunity to elevate their brands.
Before today's announcement, I caught up with Busch and he spoke about where he most loves to race and who his racing influences are.
Andy Frye: Are there any tracks or races, such as Talladega or Daytona, that you prefer or look forward to?
Kyle Busch: I think if I had to pick my favorite track, it would probably be Bristol, just with the amount of success we've had there over the years. Richmond is another really good track for us. We won both races there last year, so Richmond, and short tracks, in general, are ones I really enjoy.
We are pretty good now at almost every place we go and even places (where) I struggled at like Kansas and Martinsville, are places that I really enjoy now and run well at too. Charlotte Motor Speedway is another one of my favorites, not just as a driver but also as a fan growing up. As a kid I used to love watching the All-Star Race under the lights, seeing those guys going after those hard-fought wins. As a driver, the Xfinity and Truck series have always been good to me there, and last year we got our first Cup Series win in the Coca-Cola 600 in our M&M'S Red White and Blue paint scheme. That one was special one of the crown jewels to the trophy case.
Obviously, the Daytona 500 has been a race I really want to win. It's been challenging, to say the least, over the years with a few good finishes but a lot of frustration too. Certainly would love to win the Daytona 500.
VIDEO: Close up with Kyle Busch
AF: How do you prepare physically or mentally for race day?
Busch: I'm not one of those guys who has a certain race day routine or any superstitions. In terms of the off-season, ours isn't very long so I try and stay in good shape, eat as healthy as I can. This off-season I've worked pretty hard on my conditioning every day. I think earlier in my career when I was younger, you can get away with not working out as much. But now that I'm older I've made a more conscious effort to stay in shape, but I really think it makes a big difference for me on the track, both mentally and physically.
We've had some really hot races during the summer months and (when) I get out of the car I'm not completely exhausted. Whether it's before the season or during the season, I'm always focused and where we need to be both physically and mentally, to make sure we give ourselves the best shot possible to win every week.
AF: What race car drivers did you watch growing up?
Busch: There's a lot of guys to choose from. When I was a kid, I was just a fan of NASCAR and all the drivers really. But certainly, Jeff Gordon is someone who stands out as a huge inspiration for me (and) made me want to become a NASCAR driver. I always admire what he's done for our sport, being a four-time Cup Series Champion and being a huge ambassador for the sport, his fans and his partners over the years. I was lucky enough to be his teammate at the start of my career and I tried to learn as much from him in those early years as I could.

Corps de Ballet
The Hamburg Ballet is an internationally acclaimed ballet company based in Hamburg, Germany. Since 1973 it has been directed by the American dancer and choreographer John Neumeier. In addition there is The School of The Hamburg Ballet, established in 1978. The performances of the Hamburg Ballet are usually held at the Hamburg State Opera, while the training and education facility is the "Ballettzentrum Hamburg - John Neumeier". The Hamburg Ballet is well known for guest performances at home and abroad. In the season 2012/13 the company celebrated its 40th anniversary.
On August 16, 1973, John Neumeier took over as ballet Director and Chief Choreographer of the ballet department of the Hamburg State Opera. At that time the dancers worked at the opera the whole time, as the opera house included the stage and the ballet studios.
The first performance of the company under the new leadership was a Ballet Workshop ("Ballett-Werkstatt") titled "Classical Technique in Modern Choreographies" on September 9, 1973. Later the Ballet Workshops developed into a hallmark of The Hamburg Ballet. On September 30, 1973, the dancers presented their first program with "Divertimento No. 15", "Allegro Brillante", "Désir" and "Jeu de cartes". In January, 1974 The Hamburg Ballet had its first premiere: "Romeo and Juliet" originally choreographed by John Neumeier for the Frankfurt Ballet in 1971. Neumeier danced Romeo, and Marianne Kruuse was Juliet. For the 40th anniversary, this ballet to Sergej Prokofjew's score was revived on April 11th, 2013. On May 12th, 1974 the first world premiere of a ballet by John Neumeier took place in Hamburg. The ballet "Meyerbeer - Schumann" tells the story of the composers Giacomo Meyerbeer and Robert Schumann. The lead roles were danced by Max Midinet (Meyerbeer) and François Klaus (Schumann).
In 1974 the Hamburg Ballet was invited to perform abroad for the first time. Since then touring is part of every season of the Hamburg Ballet. Over the last 40 years the company has travelled to 29 countries and 4 continents - including France, Russia, China and Brazil. During the 2013/14 season they will perform in Costa Mesa (California) and Vienna (Austria). From June 14-22, 1975 the first Hamburg Ballet Days ("Hamburger Ballett-Tage") took place. Together with the "Nijinsky Gala", which concludes the Ballet Days, they became a tradition. On January 1, 1978 John Neumeier founded the School of The Hamburg Ballet. Originally, the students trained at the Hamburg State Opera. Later the school moved to the "Bierpalast" and on September 23, 1989 the "Ballettzentrum Hamburg - John Neumeier" opened. The Ballet Center is the home of the company, the school and the National Youth Ballet ("Bundesjugendballett"), which was founded by John Neumeier in 2011.
Over the last 40 years, The Hamburg Ballet has developed a broad repertoire, which includes over one hundred and twenty of John Neumeier's choreographies. The main interest of the Director and Chief Choreographer of The Hamburg Ballet is to create new, contemporary forms in connection with the classical ballet tradition.
One of John Neumeier's artistic focuses lies on the revision of evening-length narrative ballets such as "The Nutcracker" (1971), "Illusions - like Swan Lake" (1976), "A Cinderella's Story" (1992), "Sylvia" (1997), which was originally created for the ballet of the Paris Opera, and "Giselle" (2000).
The repertoire of The Hamburg Ballet also includes a variety of ballets choreographed to orchestral music. Of special importance is John Neumeier's "Third Symphony of Gustav Mahler" (1975). Taken together with other ballets set to the music by Mahler, Neumeier's works form a cycle. In addition, John Neumeier has created ballets to Johann Sebastian Bach's "Saint Matthew Passion" (1980) and "Christmas Oratorio" (Part I - III premiered in 2007, the complete work will premiere on December 8, 2013), Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Requiem" (1991) and George Frideric Handel's "Messiah" (1999). In addition, various composers were commissioned to compose for John Neumeier's ballets. One of them is Alfred Schnittke, who contributed the music to "Peer Gynt" (1989). Lera Auerbach composed the music for "Préludes CV" (2003) and "The Little Mermaid" (2005).
In addition, the company dances ballets based on world literature. John Neumeier created "The Lady of the Camellias" (1978) based on the novel by Alexandre Dumas and "A Streetcar Named Desire" (1983) based on Tennessee Williams for Marcia Haydée. Neumeier has also created adaptations of Henrik Ibsen's "Peer Gynt" (1989), Homer's "Odyssey" (1995), Anton Chekhov's "The Seagull" (2002) and Thomas Mann's "Death in Venice" (2003). William Shakespeare plays a very important role for the Director and Chief Choreographer. With inspiration from the Elizabethan writer, John Neumeier choreographed "As You Like It" (1985), "Hamlet" (1985), "A Midsummer Night's Dream" (1977), "Romeo and Juliet" (1971), "VIVALDI or What you will" (1996) and "Othello" (1985). A revival of the latter opens the season 2013/14. Most recently John Neumeier turned Ferenc Molnár's "Liliom" into a ballet (2011).
Another important aspect in John Neumeier's artistic work is the exploration of musical genre. He staged Leonard Bernstein's "West Side Story" (1978) and "On the Town" (1991). He also developed a rhapsodic form, which can be found in the ballet revue "Shall we dance?" (1986) and in "Bernstein Dances" (1998).
The Hamburg Ballet does not only dance creations by John Neumeier though. The repertoire of the company includes ballets by George Balanchine, Maurice Béjart, John Cranko and Mats Ek, among others. There are also reconstructions of historical choreographies, such as Vaslav Nijinsky's "Le Sacre du Printemps" by Millicent Hodson. In the season 2010/11 the works of "Dances at a Gathering" and "The Concert" by Jerome Robbins became part of the repertoire as "Chopin Dances". In 2012, The Hamburg Ballet performed "Renku", choreographed by company members Yuka Oishi and Orkan Dann. The same year a new production of John Cranko's Onegin was staged at the Hamburg State Opera.
Film versions
A film version of John Neumeier's "Lady of the Camellias" premiered in 1987. The lead roles were danced by Marcia Haydée (Marguerite) and Ivan Liska (Armand Duval). In addition, the German broadcasters NDR and ZDF filmed "Third Symphony of Gustav Mahler", "Wendung" (String Quintet in C major by Franz Schubert), "Kinderszenen" (1974) and "Othello". "Illusions - like Swan Lake", "Death in Venice" and "Saint Matthew Passion" with dancers of The Hamburg Ballet were also filmed.
Ballet Workshops
Since 1973 the Ballet Workshops ("Ballett-Werkstätte"), shown several times each season, are traditionally held on a Sunday morning. John Neumeier speaks about a topic, which is then illustrated by the company. He explains creative processes to the public and examines other dance related subjects, such as: "The Petipa Era" (1978), "Revival of a Ballet - Copy or Creation" (1987) or "Danced Violence" (1988). Newer Ballet Workshops covered themes such as "Orpheus and...", "The Little Mermaid reappears" or "Debut". A four-part Ballet Workshop was recorded by the German broadcaster NDR. It made the work of the main soloists in the 80s (Marianne Kruuse, Ivan Liska, Kevin Haigen) known to a wider audience. In 1982 four more workshops were produced for television. In the season 2012/13 John Neumeier and his company gave the audience insight into the development of his ballets for the 200th time.
Hamburg Ballet-Days
Since 1975 the Hamburg Ballet Days ("Hamburger Ballett-Tage") have been established as festival at the end of the season. The festival usually starts with the premiere of a new ballet. In 2014, The Hamburg Ballet Days will open with the premiere of John Neumeier's "Tatiana" with a newly commissioned score by Lera Auerbach, a ballet after the verse novel by Alexander Puschkin. The festival concludes with the "Nijinsky-Gala", where The Hamburg Ballet and international acclaimed guest dancers present excerpts of various ballets. The Gala is dedicated to the great dancer and choreographer Vaslav Nijinsky. Traditionally, during the festival another renowned ballet company gives guest performances at the Hamburg State Opera. In 2010, the Tokyo Ballet visited, and in 2013 the Bayerisches Staatsballett as well as Les Ballets de Monte Carlo were guests in Hamburg. At the end of the season 2013/14 Nederlands Dans Theater will give guest performances.
The Ballet Center Hamburg - John Neumeier
entrance of Ballettzentrum Hamburg
The School of The Hamburg Ballet was established in 1978. The ballet students are taught at the Ballet Center Hamburg ("Ballettzentrum Hamburg - John Neumeier"). The building, once a secondary school for girls, is one of the last buildings designed by the famous Hamburg architect Fritz Schumacher. There are nine ballet studios, where both members of the company, as well as students, can train and rehearse. In addition, the boarding school can house 35 young people.
The international students, aged 10 to 18 years, are educated to become professional stage dancers. The syllabus gives priority to all aspects of classical-academic dance. In addition, there are courses on modern dance technique, dance composition and folklore. The criteria for admission to the school are physical aptitude, rhythmic ability, dancing disposition, talent for improvisation and the level of classical ballet technique in relation to age. The entrance exams are held every year in spring. The minimum age for the preschool is 7 to 9 years, for training classes 10 to 16 years and for theater classes 16 to 18 years. Today about 80% of the company dancers have been educated at the School of The Hamburg Ballet.
The school is supported by the clubs Friends of the Hamburg Ballet Centre ("Freunde des Ballettzentrums Hamburg") and Ballet Friends Hamburg ("Ballettfreunde Hamburg"). The Ballet Centre is also the home of the first German National Youth Ballet ("Bundesjugendballett"), but legally it does not belong to The Hamburg Ballet.
The Foundation John Neumeier
The Foundation John Neumeier was established on February 23, 2006. Together with the Hamburg State Opera and the Ballet Center Hamburg, the Foundation represents the third part of John Neumeier's artistic activities in the city. The foundation under curator Hans-Michael Schäfer serves science, research and documentation. Its function and aim is to preserve and portray the history of ballet through words and images, documents and objects. In this way, the achievements of John Neumeier and in particular his work with The Hamburg Ballet will be displayed.

The kitchen, dining and living room of this apartment in the Lithuanian capital Vilnius features grey-painted walls and black-metal details, which are offset by colourful cabinets and furniture.
Lithuanian interior studio AKTA refurbished the Basanaviciaus apartment in Vilnius' medieval old town for a young couple who asked for a variety of hues to be used inside.
It features an open-plan kitchen, living and dining room with a series of colourful accents, including green cabinets in the kitchen, as well as a velvet blue sofa and textured red chair in the lounge.
The team wanted to create a plain backdrop to offset these accents of colour, so all the walls are painted grey and curtains are beige.
Black metal is used for details throughout the apartment. In the living space, it outlines shelving, and forms countertops, dining stools and chair legs. It also creates an upside down T-shaped light above the kitchen counter.
"While developing an interior design project in a modern residential house we have sought to retain the harmony relationship with Vilnius old town," AKTA's Dovilė Piekytė told Dezeen. "Therefore, we have decided to create a refined and decorative interior."
"Monochrome background enhances rich colours and allows the artworks to stand out," she continued. "Cold grey tones are balanced by velvet fabrics, which also make a contrast to the textured ceiling."
This theme is continued throughout the apartment. In the master bedroom, one of the walls is painted green. The bathroom features cabinets that match ones in the kitchen, as well as a textured white wall of tiles.
As a reference to the location's traditional design elements, wooden flooring in a chevron pattern is used throughout the interiors. It is also used to form a storage cabinet beneath the television in the living room.
Also in Vilnius, designer Inga Pieslikaitė created a minimal interior for a coffee shop that features birch wood furniture, poured concrete flooring and white-painted walls.

11 Then it came about, when Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon and to the king of Shimron and to the king of Achshaph, 2 and to the kings who were of the north in the hill country, and in the Arabah—south of [a]Chinneroth and in the lowland and on the [b]heights of Dor on the west— 3 to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and the Amorite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Jebusite in the hill country, and the Hivite [c]at the foot of Hermon in the land of Mizpeh. 4 They came out, they and all their armies with them, as many people as the sand that is on the seashore, with very many horses and chariots. 5 So all of these kings having agreed to meet, came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
6 Then the Lord said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid because of them, for tomorrow at this time I will deliver all of them slain before Israel; you shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire." 7 So Joshua and all the people of war with him came upon them suddenly by the waters of Merom, and attacked them. 8 The Lord delivered them into the hand of Israel, so that they [d]defeated them, and pursued them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim and the valley of Mizpeh to the east; and they struck them until no survivor was left to them. 9 Joshua did to them as the Lord had told him; he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.
10 Then Joshua turned back at that time, and captured Hazor and struck its king with the sword; for Hazor formerly was the head of all these kingdoms. 11 They struck every person who was in it with the edge of the sword, [e]utterly destroying them; there was no one left who breathed. And he burned Hazor with fire. 12 Joshua captured all the cities of these kings, and all their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them; just as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. 13 However, Israel did not burn any cities that stood on their mounds, except Hazor alone, which Joshua burned. 14 All the spoil of these cities and the cattle, the sons of Israel took as their plunder; but they struck every man with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They left no one who breathed. 15 Just as the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord had commanded Moses.
16 Thus Joshua took all that land: the hill country and all the [f]Negev, all that land of Goshen, the lowland, the Arabah, the hill country of Israel and its lowland 17 from Mount Halak, that rises toward Seir, even as far as Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon [g]at the foot of Mount Hermon. And he captured all their kings and struck them down and put them to death. 18 Joshua waged war a long time with all these kings. 19 There was not a city which made peace with the sons of Israel except the Hivites living in Gibeon; they took them all in battle. 20 For it was of the Lord to [h]harden their hearts, to meet Israel in battle in order that he might utterly destroy them, that they might [i]receive no mercy, but that he might destroy them, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
21 Then Joshua came at that time and cut off the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab and from all the hill country of Judah and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities. 22 There were no Anakim left in the land of the sons of Israel; only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod some remained. 23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the Lord had spoken to Moses, and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Thus the land had rest from war.
12 Now these are the kings of the land whom the sons of Israel [j]defeated, and whose land they possessed beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise, from the valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Hermon, and all the Arabah to the east: 2 Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, both the middle of the valley and half of Gilead, even as far as the brook Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon; 3 and the Arabah as far as the Sea of [k]Chinneroth toward the east, and as far as the sea of the Arabah, even the Salt Sea, eastward [l]toward Beth-jeshimoth, and on the south, [m]at the foot of the slopes of Pisgah; 4 and the territory of Og king of Bashan, one of the remnant of Rephaim, who lived at Ashtaroth and at Edrei, 5 and ruled over Mount Hermon and Salecah and all Bashan, as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and half of Gilead, as far as the border of Sihon king of Heshbon. 6 Moses the servant of the Lord and the sons of Israel [n]defeated them; and Moses the servant of the Lord gave it to the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh as a possession.
7 Now these are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the sons of Israel [o]defeated beyond the Jordan toward the west, from Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon even as far as Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir; and Joshua gave it to the tribes of Israel as a possession according to their divisions, 8 in the hill country, in the lowland, in the Arabah, on the slopes, and in the wilderness, and in the [p]Negev; the Hittite, the Amorite and the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite: 9 the king of Jericho, one; the king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one; 10 the king of Jerusalem, one; the king of Hebron, one; 11 the king of Jarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one; 12 the king of Eglon, one; the king of Gezer, one; 13 the king of Debir, one; the king of Geder, one; 14 the king of Hormah, one; the king of Arad, one; 15 the king of Libnah, one; the king of Adullam, one; 16 the king of Makkedah, one; the king of Bethel, one; 17 the king of Tappuah, one; the king of Hepher, one; 18 the king of Aphek, one; the king of Lasharon, one; 19 the king of Madon, one; the king of Hazor, one; 20 the king of Shimron-meron, one; the king of Achshaph, one; 21 the king of Taanach, one; the king of Megiddo, one; 22 the king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam in Carmel, one; 23 the king of Dor in the [q]heights of Dor, one; the king of Goiim in Gilgal, one; 24 the king of Tirzah, one: in all, thirty-one kings.
But a wicked man [a]acts disgustingly and shamefully.
But wickedness subverts the [c]sinner.

Run with the Wind Ep. 3: Need motivation? How 'bout a high school girl?
It's the middle of the week, so you know what that means: time to cover a bunch of shows that nobody really cares about.
— I jest, but not really. My views are 90% Goblin Slayer, SSSS.Gridman, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, and that Jeanne D'Arc show. 9% then goes to that bastardization of Shakespeare's play. The rest get to divvy up the last 1%.
— So what selfish stunt is Haiji going to pull this week? Well, it looks like he's managed to drag everyone (even Kakeru!) out of their warm, cozy beds despite it being the wee hours of the morning. I have no idea why a house full of grown men can't stand up for themselves. Okay, Prince Otaku needs a place to stay, but nobody else really has an excuse.
— "Just for today," Kakeru says. Just the tip! Well, that's how they getcha!
— Actually, I like to eat hours before a run. After a run, I'll just grab a banana or something. I never eat a big meal afterwards. Then again, I also prefer to jog at night.
— So Haiji wants them to do a 10-kilometer jog right off the bat. That, uh, sounds like a quick way to hurt yourself. If you haven't jogged in a long time, you'll probably need a couple days of rest after, say, a single kilometer. Doing ten kilometers is stupid. Also, if you haven't eaten anything, where are you going to get the energy to do this? They just woke up. Did they even stretch? Did they even have a drink of water?
— Nevertheless, Kakeru takes off running, so even though he never wanted to join this team in the first place, he's already inadvertently leading by example.
— There's no way a bunch of untrained guys jogged five kilometers straight. No chance. The twins have experience playing soccer, so they're probably fine. But the rest? Nuh-uh.
— Poor Prince Otaku.
— I dunno who's dumber: Haiji or the guys who refuse to put up any resistance to him.
— Well, it turns out Kakeru played along in order to prove to Haiji that his ideas are dumb. But again, the other guys might see how easily he can do it and thus get a second wind or something. His words are falling on deaf ears anyway; nobody's going to convince Haiji otherwise.
— That reminds me: I gotta go jogging tonight.
— 5K is about 14 minutes? Yeah, for trained athletes. I get that's what he's trying to say, but… these are not trained athletes, and I don't think 10 months would realistically change that. Good thing this is anime where anything goes.
— The smoker gets his cigarette confiscated, which he obviously should've expected. Runners aren't supposed to smoke.
— Kakeru defiantly turns down free breakfast, because he doesn't want to owe anyone any favors. And yet, he continues to live here…
— We soon see Haiji try to drag the same bunch out of bed again, but this time, he doesn't get perfect attendance. Y'know, I really hope he isn't making them run on consecutive days, because you really shouldn't when you're just starting out. You really, really shouldn't. Sure, once you get used to running, knock yourself out. But as a newbie, you need to allow your muscles to heal between strenuous exercises, running or otherwise.
— And yet, Kakeru is a willing participant again. Hell, he starts running before the whole group is even assembled. In doing so, he bumps into the token girl of the entire story. On the one hand, the early bird gets the worm. On the other hand, she's still wearing her high school uniform, so this doesn't sound like a good idea, my guy.
— The girl quickly inquires about Haiji while some odd track plays in the background. When the rest of the guys arrive — minus the aspiring lawyer — we learn that she's just some vegetable vendor's daughter. For now, anyway.
— We then cut to the aspiring lawyer (I'll memorize his name one day… maybe) attempting to pick up a couple of girls at a club, but Haiji shows up out of nowhere to spoil the fun. I guess I'm not surprised that the aspiring lawyer would be the only one to put up any sort of fight. He's still going to fall in line eventually, though.
— Haiji then promises to accompany the aspiring lawyer to the clubs every night, 'cause y'know, teammates. So on day three — again, I can only hope that these days aren't consecutive but I'm more than likely wrong — we see the latter willingly get up early for a morning jog. Dumb.
— He also stares slack-jawed when the Hanako, the token girl, shows up to their home. C'mon, she's a high schooler!
— Sadly, all of the guys seem to be in good spirits now that they have a girl cheering them on. Sigh…
— Speaking of Hanako, she's brimming with energy and is willing to help the guys out before and after school. But, uh… why?
— Poor, poor Prince Otaku.
— The guys still want to know if Haiji and Hanako are dating. What's it to them? Well, I know why they care, but still…
— Right after Hanako leaves for school, Haiji starts going on and on about how he was right: girls will approach you if you run! Yeah, great, lemme start scoring high schoolers. That sure will make a big man.
— But of course, the twins are now convinced. What a pair of goobers.
— Oh lord.
— Then another guy agrees to keep going just because he is enjoying the positive vibes. Haha, it's that easy. First, you selfishly insist that nine guys join you on some mad quest to run a 100-plus kilometer marathon. Then after three whole days, Stockholm Syndrome will set in!
— At this point, Kakeru is just being a classic tsundere. He still thinks that this is a bad idea, because Prince Otaku can barely survive the morning jogs. But look, actions speak louder than words, and nobody has been a more model student than Kakeru.
— Some guy runs by and recognizes Kakeru. A former teammate, perhaps.
— In the afternoon, Haiji tells Hanako that his hypothesis has been confirmed: athletes do better in front of an audience. But just look at the girl's response. Man, it'll be lame if the token girl is also just a one-dimensional Genki Girl.
— Apparently, she's been singing Kakeru's praises. It'll be even funnier if she's the sole reason that our protagonist buys in. I doubt it, though. This doesn't really feel like a show that has the time nor the energy for romance. Gotta go fast!
— Elsewhere, the rest of the guys discuss how they need to get past the qualifier before they can even participate in the real deal. The gang will have to beat out about 50 other schools for the privilege to compete in the actual race. Well, not only will they get through the qualifier, I bet you they'll get through by the skin of their teeth. It would be such a typical underdog thing to happen. At the end of the day, Run with the Wind appears to share the same DNA with other sports anime.
— Kakeru thinks he's discouraging the other guys by being a realist, but at best, he's just tempering their expectations. He's just going to spur them to work harder. Most importantly, he's not going to change anyone's minds. They look like they've already drunk Haiji's Kool-Aid.
— When the twins tell him to just go with the flow and run with them, Kakeru replies that he doesn't work well with others. I mean, it's just running. There's some teamwork, but it's not like basketball or anything. Let's not get it twisted.
— On the fourth day, Kakeru has already gone ahead and started running without the group. This thus allows him to bump into someone from his past, i.e. the same guy from the previous day. Judging by Kakeru's reaction, they don't appear to be on good terms. But that's for next week's episode.

That is just sad… The only thing there that isn't completely terrible is Gridman. I guess you could watch that Jeanne D'Arc anime for the so bad, it's good thing, but the rest are just that bad or just boring. I can't exactly blame people for not watching this anime, though. So far, it's just dull and boring. It could be a comedy, but for some reason, its creators are determined to make it a genuine and serious sport anime and it isn't working. I mean who am I supposed to root for here?

Have we descended from Mars?
Boston: A team of researchers at Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are developing a device that will study whether life on Earth descended from organisms that were originated on Mars and carried to our planet aboard meteorites – a theory that would make all humans of Martian-descent.
MIT research scientist Christopher Carr, postdoctoral associate Clarissa Lui, head of MIT`s Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences Maria Zuber and Harvard University molecular biologist Gary Ruvkuna are working on the proposed instrument called the `Search for Extra-Terrestrial Genomes` (SETG).
The MIT researchers` device, which could be carried on future missions to Mars, would take samples of Martian soil and isolate any living microbes that might be present or microbial remnants, which can be preserved for about up to a million years and still contain viable DNA.
They would separate out the genetic material in order to use standard biochemical techniques to analyse their genetic sequences. The team would search for DNA or RNA in the Martian soil, separating any possible organisms using the same techniques used for forensic DNA testing on Earth.
Biochemical markers would be used to search for signs of particular, genetic sequences that are nearly universal among all known life forms.
SETG would take a sample of Martian soil from below the surface on Mars, dredged up by a rover equipped with a deep drill.
"It is a long shot," Carr said in a MIT statement. "But if we go to Mars and find life that is related to us, we could have originated on Mars. Or if it started here, it could have been transferred to Mars."
Either way, "we could be related to life on Mars. So we should at least be looking for life on Mars that is related to us."
Orbital dynamics show that it is about 100 times easier for rocks to travel from Mars to Earth than the other way. If life got started on Mars first, microbes could have been carried here and "we might all be its descendants."
"If we are descendants from Mars, there might be important lessons to be learned about our own biological origins by studying biochemistry on our neighbour planet, where biological traces erased long ago on Earth might have been preserved in the Martian deep freeze," the statement said.
The researchers estimate that it could take two more years to complete the design and testing of a prototype SETG device.
A future mission with a lander or rover equipped with a drill could potentially carry this life-detection instrument. The team is basing its idea on several well-established facts.
In the early days of the solar system, the climates on Mars and Earth were much more similar than they are now, so life that took hold on one planet could presumably have survived on the other.
Further, an estimated one billion tons of rock have travelled from Mars to Earth, blasted loose by asteroid impacts and then travelling through interplanetary space before striking Earth`s surface.
Microbes have been shown to be capable of surviving the initial shock of such an impact, and there is some evidence they could also survive the thousands of years of transit through space before arriving at another planet.
"So the various steps needed for life to have started on one planet and spread to another are all plausible," the MIT statement said.
Recent Mars orbiter and rover missions have shown that Mars once had abundant water and many of the conditions thought to be needed to support life.
While the surface of Mars today is too cold and dry to support known life forms, there is evidence that liquid water may exist not far below the surface.
"On Mars today, the best place to look for life is in the subsurface," Carr added.

Essential background Part 3
Initially the idea was to take a life-form from one civilization,
plant some of them on the planet, and then let them acclimatize. At
periodic times after that, genetic factors from other civilizations
on other star systems would be added to this original group either
through reproductive intervention or a mating with the species. If
this sounds very much like 2001: A Space Odyssey, you will begin to
understand how creative people are fed ideas from out of their
deepest inner resources in order to bring truth to Light.
As the Council of Nine put it:
"The origins of humankind did not evolve from animals, or from Earth
matter. There was one group which emerged by itself ? all others were
colonized and merged to create a new species."
In tracing the vertical evolutionary record contained in
human and other genomes, scientists ran into an enigma when they
found that the human genome contains 223 genes that do not have the
required predecessors on the genomic evolutionary tree. Starseeding
is the true and only explanation for these genes without identifiable
predecessors.
Even star systems such as the Pleiades were seeded just as was planet
Earth. It is called `starseeding', and it is a basic tool of the
Universe to get evolution going and keep it going. It is also a
process used to speed up the process. As was said before, however,
nothing on the scale of what was to be tried on Earth had ever been
attempted before.
"We do not interfere in the civilizations. Those twenty-four
civilizations join with us to bring about the plan for Planet Earth
that was conceived by all of us in the beginning. In truth the
Council and the Twenty-Four developed and created what was necessary
on Planet Earth in order for humanity to live on it, when it was
ready. We continue to work with this, but our wish is that you humans
will now take responsibility for your own planet."
The initial attempts were to `test the waters' so to speak. The
metaphor the Nine use is that, like any good gardener, if you are
unsure of your soil, you will plant many types of species. The kinds
you initially plant are the kinds you most want to be the main
structure of your garden, and to see which of those will survive.
Then you arrange and cultivate, and look to see what is working and
what is not. Then you do a little grafting, a little cross-
hybridization, and see if you can come up with that perfect show
piece that will take top honors at the next bi-annual fair. That,
too, is how Planet Earth was arranged.
To give you a background with which to work, and to orient your time
clock in as short amount of space as we can, we have included a brief
rundown of the human population on the Earth as it is currently
written about in most of the scientific textbooks in schools:
? First came the creature known as Ramapithecus. Living 15-20
million years ago, it was a tree dwelling simple tool-user without
visible ancestors or descendants.
? About the same time was Australopithecus, a creature also
living 15-20 million years ago, but one which mysteriously died out.
? In 1946, the huge bones of Gigantopithecus were discovered
and dated back to nearly 10 million years ago. Gigantopithecus,
sounding much like what Brother Philip describes as the Els, stood
more than 8 feet tall and weighed 400 to 500 pounds. In the 1940s,
Gigantopithecus was thought to be a good candidate for a missing
link; but, like Ramapithecus, it is now thought to be `an
evolutionary side branch'.
The fossils of Gigantopithecus and Ramapithecus, if not human
ancestors, were supposedly contemporary with our true ancestor. These
primates were indeed giants and dwarfs, and some lived earlier than
10 million years ago, the time in which Edgar Cayce says human beings
first appeared on Earth. These were not anatomically modern people;
our ancestors likely though did have "tails," just as there are
incidences of children still being born with tails today.
? Homo Habilis came around 3,500,000 years ago. He was an
upright, tool-using, hunting, home-dwelling being who looked much
like proto-humans (proto as in prototypes), although definite
ancestral links to us have not yet been established.
? Homo Erectus came roughly between 750,000 and 250,000 years
ago. He was a stone-axe user, a fire-kindler and a hut-builder, with
a brain somewhat comparable to ours. The females no longer went `on
heat' (oestrus), and offspring went through a much more prolonged
infancy. Cultural growth was beginning and signs of humanity were
? There is no demonstrated relationship between Homo Erectus
and Neanderthal Man--Homo Neanderthalis, who appeared about 300,000
years ago, wearing clothes, practicing ritual burials and warfare,
but who mysteriously and quickly disappeared as well some 35,000
years ago. The Neanderthals displayed virtually no technological
innovation during more than 100,000 years of their existence on the
planet. They just disappeared. They didn't interbreed, nor were they
killed off by the Cro-Magnons. Modern humans are not descended from
Neanderthals, but co-existed with them about 40,000 years ago,
according to the latest scientific research just recently released.
In Marlo Morgan's book Mutant Message Down Under, it is the white men
who are called Mutants ?because they were interbred with other races,
and away from the "Ab-original." In ancient Egypt, the `Ab' referred
to that part of the person known as the `heart'?therefore the
Aboriginals can rightfully be called `the original hearts' of the
An analysis of DNA extracted from the ribs of a 29,000 year-old
Neanderthal infant buried in a cave in southern Russia showed that it
was too distinct to be related to humans. Although they evidently co-
existed, no evidence of genetic material being passed from
Neanderthals to modern humans can be found. The study of DNA taken
from the first Neanderthal skeleton found in the Feldhofer Cave in
Germany in 1856 supports the theory that modern humans in fact
replaced Neanderthals. The DNA sequence from the infant was very
similar to the specimen from the Feldhofer Cave as well, suggesting
both to be genuinely Neanderthals, and that there was little
diversity among them. DNA comparisons also showed that different
ethnic groups have no proven links to any of the Neanderthals known.
The Nine say that the Neanderthals were a species evolved from the
planet Earth, but even they were "remnants of groups that had once
come before." Of course, the slowness and lack of progression of the
Neanderthals over 100,000 years tends to put a damper on evolutionary
theory considering how much progress modern man has made in as short
a time as the past 3,000 years.
The Nine also say that the Cro-Magnon's were from another race which
then merged with other species who had survived, later merging again
to bring humans to a more elevated state.
"The Neanderthals were not the beginning of humankind. . . their
first appearance was in the Tarim basin in Aksu."
? There is no demonstrated relationship between the
Neanderthals and those who also came to share space with them for a
few millennia: Homo Sapiens Sapiens (Human the Wise). These were
anatomically modern folk who appeared seemingly out of nowhere,
leaving remnants all the way from Europe to Australia. They were a
people who had sculpture, musical instruments, lamps, trade, and
innovations such as objects of symbolic significance communicated
through visual images.
Palden Jenkins commentary in The Only Planet of Choice makes light of
the obvious questions left by science's haphazard explanation of
human life on this planet:
"After an evolutionary struggle lasting millions of years, our
species emerged as top hominid. And then, in one spectacular moment,
we became human. As recently as 35,000 years ago, western Europe was
still occupied by Neanderthals, primitive beings for whom art and
progress scarcely existed. Then there was an abrupt change.
Anatomically modern people appeared in Europe, and suddenly so did
sculpture, musical instruments, lamps, trade and innovation. Within a
few thousand years Neanderthals were gone. Insofar as there was any
single moment when we could be said to become human, it was at the
time of this great leap forward some 35,000 years ago."
Jenkin's conclusion is that scientific theories seem to rely heavily
for their continued survival "on the implicit lack of interest" most
people show in the subject, and a willingness to leave the question
to "experts." A seemingly very uncurious bunch, aren't we?
Most of the world's different races and major culture language groups
have come into place only since about 10, 000 BC. Even Egyptian
civilization suddenly seemed to appear all at once, and almost fully
developed, somewhere in the fourth millennium BC. Egypt moved
straight from a stage of pre-civilization to the government of large
areas without the usual era of city states intervening. The ordinary
logic of historical development does not seem to apply to Egypt.
The Nine say that Soul first came to the planet when reasoning began
with the assembling of tools and with the forming of a method of
communication, but others in the Universal spiritual hierarchy tend
to suggest it is much further back than we think. They are not
disagreeing, it is only that the higher you go, the bigger the
picture one can see.
". . . We learn too," say the Nine.
