Comic Reviews - Player Affinity - Soul Fire Vol 3. #1 – Advanced Review

On January 12, 2012, in fathom Comics, by Luke Judge

7.9

Another of Aspen’s flagship titles returns this week with Soul Fire. The third volume takes place after magic has returned and a new period of peace between the Rahtumi and Sethoru has begun. one of the Sethoru isn’t happy with co-existence and has stolen a book from the forbidden library in order to use a dark magic that only the Sethoru can harness. her name is Onyx and she has a lot of enemies still in this new peace filled world.Grace, one of the Rahtumi discovers Onyx as she’s stealing the book of dark secrets and confronts her, but Onyx escapes back into hiding. our star of Soul Fire is yet to be seen until Grace’s thoughts reach out to him. we find Malikai wondering the frozen tundra in a self-imposed exile. he recounts his last experience around people and how he could feel darkness creeping inside of him and changing him. Not wanting to hurt the love of his life he left. Now he decides to visit the closest city to get something to eat and finds a dive bar to do just that. The bartender is extremely friendly to him and even offers to talk to her landlord for an extra room so he doesn’t have to sleep out in the cold. soon thought, Malikai will be thrust back into things as Onyx’s plan unfolds.This first issue is pretty good. it familiarizes the reader with the world of Soul Fire and gets them caught up on the events of the past. it also sets up the catalyst for the plot of this story arc as Onyx wants to use a dark power to restore her people to a position of power. Writer J.T. Krul (MindField) does a good job of picking up the pieces of the previous storylines and reignites this franchise for a new set of readers. It’s been awhile since Aspen’s focused on their flagship titles, so it’s good to see a return to their roots while they continue to develop new franchises for the future.The art lives up to Aspen’s high standards and artist Jason Fabok gives a solid performance on the book. he doesn’t try to copy Michael Turner’s style, but rather use it as an influence and give his own twist to the world. It’s a good thing, because it saves him from the constant comparison. Complimenting Fabok’s strong pencils is John Starr’s coloring and it goes without saying that it’s great. Aspen doesn’t have a single colorist that isn’t amazing and Starr is no exception.Soul Fire was one of those books that never really sucked me in. it always seemed interesting and the art was beautiful, but I never got into the story. with this latest volume the series seems to have matured to allow new readers to become interested in it, while still catering enough to fans of the series. If you’ve been looking forward to the return of this flagship book then you won’t be disappointed.Overall Score 7.9/10*Great for New Readers*

Midland Walkie Talkie: The New Functional Adventure Device

On January 4, 2012, in walkie Talkies, by Luke Judge

Do you always love adventure? so you want to spend the night camping in a forest? or climb the icy mountain to see its great view? or go water skiing and scuba diving? you also want to tell your loved ones and friends what you do on the spot, do you? but, isn’t your cell phone receives signals when you go adventure tripping? Too bad, is it?

But now there is an easy way. with Midland, a wide known company for making two way radios since the 50s, you would not be lost. well you might think with its toy appearance, these walkie talkies are for little kids. but with its great clear signal and wide audio system, you would think it is a cell phone. you will never be confused because it has clear and understandable instructions. you would never reach for a manual again.

It is also durable, small and lightweight; it won’t break and shatter even if you let it drop to the ground and it is now easy to put it in your backpacks or side pockets. It is also water proof, so you won’t be worrying if it gets wet from your jet skiing lessons. It has a keypad lock feature, which avoids getting accidentally push buttons when you are not using. It has a long range signal, so you can talk to your love ones whatever place you are and wherever you go, even in a moving vehicle. It catches up 22 channels; which means you can talk privately without someone who is picking your signal. you can choose from models with rechargeable batteries or with the use of A-A-A batteries. If you want to save money, then you could buy the rechargeable battery that could use in 17 hours straight. Isn’t that great from your regular handy cell phone?

So, if you want to go traveling, camping, mountain climbing, water skiing, scuba diving or just a short call from the office without the hassle of a cell phone; go buy a Midland Walkie Talkie. It ranges from $20 – $100 but with its unique features, you won’t be disappointed. If you want, you can also buy another one for the kids or they might be jealous.

Freelance Photography: How to Begin Your Career

On December 22, 2011, in photography Magazines, by Luke Judge

Photography is a vast world. there are many different types of photography and many different kinds of people that enjoy it. It’s a hobby that be relatively inexpensive or one that you can invest a lot of money on. Photos are so special because they give us memories of times and places and events in our lives. we can hold onto these memories forever with a photograph.

As much as people love photos, many people love taking them even more. whether it’s a mother who takes photos at every of her children’s moments in life (first smile, first step, first spaghetti meal) or maybe it’s the father who never forgets his camera for a football or basketball game, or maybe it’s the young girl who loves nature hikes with her camera; these people are not exceptions. they all have an eye for those special moments and they all appreciate the camera’s ability to capture that moment and freeze it in time forever.

- what is Freelance Photography?

What if you love photography so much you wish you could do it for a living? I mean, you actually get paid for your photographs But you work solely for yourself, selling each photo or series of photos individually. you don’t have a boss. you work sometimes on assignment and you may sell to magazines. That is freelance photography.

Freelance photography may be your entire career or it may start out as something you do in your spare time but begin making money from it. It’s just like freelance writing in this sense that many people turn it into a career and enjoy the freedom of working essentially for themselves on their own time and making money doing something they love doing anyway.

- how to Build a Portfolio

To start getting jobs as a freelance photographer, you need a portfolio. A portfolio will show samples of your work. even if you have never had photographs published or publicly displayed, you can start a portfolio of your best work and then add onto it if you win photography contests or start receiving paid work.

- how to Get Jobs

As we mentioned, building a portfolio is the first step in submitting your work for pay but when it comes right down to it, it’s the quality of the photo that will determine if you get paid for it. Some people have more of a natural talent for taking great pictures than others but it is a skill that anyone can learn. there are schools dedicated to the art of photography and you can even get a degree in it. if you are just getting started, you can look into classes provided by your local community center or community college. Some cities have photography groups that meet to share photos and tips. there are also many groups online dedicated to photography and freelance photography.

You need to view as many famous photographs as possible. Take a look at what is getting published and compare it to your own photos. this allows you to compare and learn from other’s work. It takes more than just point and shoot to get a great photo. you need to learn about focus, lighting, colors and backgrounds and much more.

Once you start learning about photography and creating a portfolio, you can start submitting your photos to contests and magazines. Get a list of photography markets and start submitting to ones that accept your type of photos. Don’t expect to make it to the big times right away. few people actually achieve this but you can start small and eventually make your way into a nice living from freelance photography.

Start Collecting Antiques & Collectibles

On December 11, 2011, in photographs Collectables, by Luke Judge

Love is the key to collecting anything be it antiques or beanie babies. When you love the things you collect, you feel a passion that encourages you to spend your money, time and energy adding to and caring for your collection.

Begin your collection with pieces you love. the first step to collecting is to find something you love and want to surround yourself with. A healthy and inspiring collection is one you will want to live with for years to come. the exact nature of your collection is up to you. choose art or furniture of a particular period or style or select an item that is representative of meaning in your life. consider collecting teddy bears like the first one your mother gave you or elephant figurines after one sparked your interest at a flea market. You might have to take a look around your home and find that a collection has already started. look for the things you love then build your collection around them.

Do your homework and research the collectible. Now that you have selected the pieces that will begin your collection it is time to start researching. Visit websites and gather reference books with the details and history of the items you want to collect. Remember that collections don’t have to have value to anyone other than the collector. You might choose to collect inexpensive items that speak to you or items of higher value. Talk to the experts. When and if your collection begins to have some value it’s time to talk to the experts. Listen to their advice. Through them you can learn what value is reasonable for items you want to add to your collection. They can also help you discover the most common flaws found in fakes or copies of the types of items you collect.

Learn the distinctive qualities of what you collect. whether you are collecting antique Chippendale furniture or Impressionist paintings your steps are still the same. Learn what makes items collectible as what they are. Learn the specifics – what makes a Chippendale or Hummel authentic or a reproduction. there are hundreds of books on the subject of antiques and collectibles. Check your local library for manuals on your chosen collectible.

Wander in the likely places. Get shopping at antique stores, flea markets and estate sales. Haunt the areas most likely to have the items you’re looking for. If that means new England estate sales then head there. If it means shopping at toy stores or eBay, then you go where the collectibles are. You can start collecting with a single purchase and a little research then watch your collection grow over time.

You can begin collecting with just a little bit of time and care. If antiques are your love then you might find your Saturday afternoons captured by wandering through the aisles of thrift stores and small town rummage or estate sales. Get your friends and family involved in collecting and there will be hours of fun in your future.

4 Sizzling Ways to Charm Your Way Into Her Pants

On December 9, 2011, in bra & Knickers Sets, by Luke Judge

Want to know the secret to attracting women?

Well if you’re like me, then you’ve probably heard a lot about the different techniques for attracting women. The most famous of them is called ‘cocky/funny’.

Now I personally think cocky/funny is an incredible to build attraction when you initially meet a woman, but relying just on this technique can get you in a lot of trouble.

The idea behind cocky-funny is to tease a woman while talking to her and act in a slightly arrogant manner. The problem is many guys read about cocky/funny and think all they have to do is act like a jerk then women will instantly fall in love with them.

Unfortunately this technique rarely works

While cocky/funny is a great way to add spice to a conversation, it shouldn’t be your only tool to attracting a woman. . In fact, many women are turned off by guys who only use cocky/funny techniques.

So how can you attract women without relying solely on cocky/funny?

Well it’s simple all you to do is to learn how to be charming.

If you’ve watched the men who are successful with women, you’ve probably noticed that they all have one thing in common. They all know how to be charming.
While it’s always important to be confident, you have to learn how to speak to a woman and make her attracted to you.

Here are a few ways you can become charming to a woman during a conversation:

1) Be pleasant company-

One of the best ways to be charming is to be a fun person around women. if you’re a source of fun and excitement to a woman, then you’re on your way to being charming.

In essence you have to tell interesting stories, bring her on exciting adventures and be a funny person to her. So even if you’re teasing her or being cocky/funny, you’re still a source of excitement in her life.

2) you smile and have body language-

A charming guy always has a warm and inviting personality. In order to be like this, you have to know how to become the suave guy who attracts women. while I don’t have enough space to list all the ways to become charming, let me give a quick rule for behaving in a charming manner:

All you have to do is remember to smile during your conversation and be ‘open’ with your body language.

3) have interesting conversations instead of routines-

One huge mistake guys make is to use memorized routines on women. while it’s important to use stories and other attraction building techniques, you should never use the same routine with every woman you meet.

Instead of reenacting a boring routine, you should ask her questions which spark curiosity and make you unique. The charming guys are the ones can make instant connections to women and make them enjoy themselves during the conversation.

4) you treat her well-

While I love using the cocky/funny technique I know it’s useful up to a point. if she’s having fun and you’re enjoying the playful interaction, then you know it’s working. But even if you’re having success, you should remember a charming man knows the importance of always treating a woman well.

In other words, you should always treat women with respect.

This means you act in an honest manner and don’t deal in lies. while you might want to have sex and play around with women, you have to remember to behave in a manner where you’re not using and taking advantage of them.

Only guys with low self-esteem enjoy hurting women.

If you want to succeed with women and move beyond cocky/funny, you have to learn how to be charming.

Why Would Anyone Look For Antique Mirrors For Sale?

On December 5, 2011, in frames Collectables, by Luke Judge

Here are a few reasons why people search for antique mirrors for sale. Antique mirrors are a good way to spruce up any room. Mirrors have been around for as long as the Middle Ages and have become an important though rarely acknowledged part in day to day living. It is on mirrors where we check our appearances after all. Another function of mirrors is that the right one can give a touch of classy appeal in any room.

Antique mirrors in particular are a beauty to add in any room. they are in a class all in their own with the elegant designs and the mysterious feel that come with them. Antique collectors would love the appeal they give in any room, be it in the dresser or in the living room. If you are interested in buying one, there are many styles and mirrors available in stores all over the world.

Styles for antique mirrors vary according to the craftsmanship, architecture and the technique used to make the reflecting glass. these characteristics can easily tell antique dealers and collectors from what period the mirrors came from.

Mirrored glass antiques are one of the oldest mirrors around, dating from as far as the 16th century. they are made of glass coated on one side with the reflective substance and are made with the process called silvering.

Baroque mirrors are a bit more sophisticated, being made from collated small pieces of glass on wood, usually oak and walnut with a gold or silver leaf finish. the finish was meant to enhance warm light reflection like that of sunlight.

Plate Glass and the Rocco are mirrors of the 18th century, made with large plate glass sheets placed on rectangular mahogany frames with seashells and curlicues. they were originally used by the French before the Americans adopted the manufacturing style in 1770.

Classical antique mirrors and Victorian Imitation mirrors are the ones usually associated with elegance and royalty of different eras. Depending on the time it was made, classical mirrors can come in different forms, from simple mahogany framed mirrors from the French Empire style to the more sophisticated with gilded and scroll-work carvings of the English Regency style. Victorian Imitations on the other hand were made in the 19th century which combined different mirror styles from different periods, like how 19th century mirror is placed in a Renaissance made frame with 16th century accents.

Once you have chosen your style of mirror, the next question would most probably be where can you find these antique mirrors for sale? the first stop you would make would be to the closest antique shop you can find. there is always the benefit of seeing and getting a good feeling of any product you want if you can go to the dealer themselves. It gives you the opportunity also to examine the antique for faults before you make the final purchase. Antique shops however appear to charge higher prices for their goods, mainly because they are knowledgeable in looking for and restoring antiques. they also know a good antique and its value when they see one. In other words, despite the high price, the antique shops are a guaranteed good place to get your mirror.

But if you are on a budget, you can look for antique mirrors for sale in a thrift store. An experienced antique collector can find a quality piece of mirror for sale, and the seller himself may not have even noticed. If you know what you want and how to look for it, then a thrift store can help you save money. And if you are planning on using the mirror for investment, you can buy it here fairly cheaply and then resell it at a higher value based on the demand for the type of mirror.

Other places you can get antique mirrors for sale are at garage sales and online sales. Be careful about buying in these places however. In garage sales, be extra particular about checking for product quality and any breaks. In online sales, take time to research on the kind of antique mirror you want and read on reviewer testimonials and find the best prices and the nearest dealers, if possible.

On December 4, 2011, in vintage Costume Jewellery, by Luke Judge

At this time of year many of us are eagerly anticipating the summer holiday that we have waited for all year and will be looking forward to relaxing and taking it easy for a week or two. before you set off though you will need to decide what beauty products you just can’t do without and which must pack outfits you need to take. One of the hardest decisions for many women though will be how many pairs of shoes they are going to limit themselves to then the final dilemma what jewellery are you going to take. For many women this can be a hard decision as they have a number of favourite expensive pieces that they love but equally don’t want to risk getting them stolen or worry about losing them.

Sorry girls I don’t want to put a downer on the last point but just think for a minute how you’d feel if you were unlucky enough to have your precious or sentimental jewellery items stolen. unfortunately through personal experience this has happened to me before. perhaps I’ve just been unlucky; however I do know that this did cause some upset and as a result did take the edge off my holiday experience.

There is however an alternative where you can still take jewellery away with you to accessorise those must have outfits and make you feel a million dollars. ever thought about purchasing a few well chosen costume jewellery pieces for your holiday? in today’s ever changing fashion trends costume jewellery is more popular than ever. Carefully selected pieces can offer you a colourful sophisticated look that really sets off your wardrobe and will give you piece of mind. to complement this why not also consider some new hair accessories as well. Flower hair accessories are really big this year and what better time to try something different on holiday and gain some admiring looks.

Why not take a look and glam it up ladies, spoil yourself and enjoy

Winnie the Pooh Bedding – Still Loved by Kids Everywhere

On November 29, 2011, in pooh & Friends, by Luke Judge

Winnie the Pooh bedding will be around for a long time to come. that little cuddly bear and his hilarious friends have truly proven to be eternal winning characters in the hearts of children. You may think that kids these days don’t know about him but in fact they do. and they love him, as well as Tigger, and Owl, etc. So what better way to celebrate that than by giving the little ones that you love his or her own set of bedding designed for these characters. (It will probably motivate them more to get to bed when it’s time to go and you will bedtime will be more relaxed.) they will be eager to jump right into their sheets, blankets, and Winnie the Pooh pillowcases. It’s a very comforting thing to them, to be surrounded by all these innocent cartoon characters.

If you have a little newborn, or any baby that hasn’t graduated to a bed yet, then you can also get Winnie the Pooh crib bedding. Babies themselves will even love the cute and cuddly Pooh Bear. It’s a sign of the innocence of childhood and I really believe that every kid should be able to spend their some hanging out with these guys

Another good thing with Winnie the Pooh bedding is that it comes in many varieties and colors. there is not just one set of sheets, designed in one way. Maybe it used to be that way decades ago, but nowadays you can really choose from a lot of different designs and patterns to fit any nursery furniture and style. You can also tailor the sheet sets to appeal to a boy or a little girl. they will be heavier in blues or pinks depending on which way you go.

So, a.A. Milne’s fantasy story about talking animals lives on even today. The sad and funny Eeyore is still a crack-up to young children everywhere. and Rabbit is still sort of a mystery to them, with the quick ways he moves and how he always seems to be out ahead of everyone. and of course Pooh is. well he’s just Pooh. No kid could ever not love this lazy bear.

I have seen sheets featuring Eeyore on them. and I have seen comforters with Pooh Bear and his friends, like Christopher Robin, emblazoned nice and big so that once your kid makes his bed he will be able to have them smiling at him all day long whenever he’s in his room. this may even motivate the children to make their beds better and more often so that they can have their conversations with the cartoon characters. there are so many reasons that make Winnie the Pooh bedding, always, a perfect gift for any youngster.

Aunts and uncles, you will earn a lot of love from your nieces and nephews by giving them this bedding set. then they will think of you every time they go to sleep. Just make sure to find out what size bed the kids are sleeping on before purchasing these fine products.
