Having just returned from the 2006 Speaker Summit in Los Angeles, I found the following article by Alicia Forest to be quite timely, and very true. This event was a little different for me, in that I was there as a vendor, but I have to say that Alicia is right on with every point she makes regarding how attending live events can boost your business.
If you're one of the individuals that Alicia talks about … that never gets out and tends to hide behind their computer screens, try something new. Get out from behind that computer screen and attend a live event … you'll be glad you did!
How Attending Live Events Can Boost Your Business
by Alicia M. Forest, MBA
Multiple Streams Queen & Coach(TM)
Are you the kind of business owner who tends to hide behind your computer screen? You network online through discussion lists and other virtual forums, but you are hesitant to leave the comfort of your home office to actually meet others in person?
Whether you're a natural introvert or extrovert, attending live events and meeting peers and colleagues in person can make a dramatic difference in the success of your business. If you've been the lone wolf type, it's time to get out and start gathering your pack.
When I was in the public relations/higher education field, I attended dozens of conferences, but when I started my consulting practice, money was tight and it took me a few years to get back out on the circuit.
The first event I attended in my capacity as a consultant/coach changed my business and my life. I hesitated about attending because it was a lot of money to invest and I was going to be starting over in a way in a new industry, which were both risks for me at the time.
Was it worth it? Let's just say that I still have the card from the Irish pub my husband and I went to the final evening of the event where we figured out how I was going to make this work. It really is when everything changed.
Not only did I learn a ton of great stuff, I met some amazing people who have become friends as well as colleagues. And I truly believe that what you put out is what you get back, and by attending this event, I was sending the message that I was ready to start playing big.
One of the best investments you can make in your business is in your continuous learning, by attending events, as well as investing in high-quality education products and programs. Part of my own marketing budget is dedicated solely to my learning (and believe me, it's hard to keep the lid on it!).
So, are you thinking maybe you'll take the risk and attend a live event in your niche? Here are some specific reasons why you should:
- Dedicated time and focus on the event topic
I bet you have at least a few books, CDs, home study courses, etc. that you've probably listened to or read, but that you haven't actually applied. I know I do. And I also know that when I get out of my office and dedicate time and focus to one thing, I make some big breakthroughs.
- Sharing space with link-minded individuals
Nothing inspires me more than being around others who are as passionate about what we do as I am. Collaborations come naturally and we easily share ideas and resources. Taking the time to share space with these folks helps keep me motivated and excited about moving forward.
- More high-quality connections
Not only do I end up with a ton of business cards, but there's also a handful of strategic partnership opportunities, as well as new ezine subscribers and new customers of my products. And by attending an event comprised of others in my industry, the quality of the connections I'm making is much higher for my business building than attending something like a local chamber event.
- Discounts on materials to increase your learning
Typically the speakers of these events will offer special discounts to attendees on their products and programs. And if the event has vendor booths, the same usually applies. Events are a great place to "shop" for the next tool that will help boost your business.
- It's guaranteed and tax-deductible
I think this is something most small business owners forget. They just look at the price tag of the event, and then shy away. But remember, whatever you put out as an investment in your business is tax-deductible. Be sure to check with your accountant for details, but stop to think about how much you could increase your bottom line by attending the event, instead of how much it costs.
Besides, most reputable events offer a money-back guarantee, so if you really felt it wasn't worthwhile, you can always ask for a refund.
- Meet the experts
Most of the time, the speakers at the events are accessible, so don't be shy and go on up and introduce yourself. You may not have another chance and you never know where that connection may lead!
- Enjoy yourself outside of the event
Don't forget that you can take in the place where the event is being held. Do a little research ahead of time and plan at least some time away from the event to enjoy wherever it is you're visiting, even if it's in your home state!
Once you're home and recovered from being out and about at the event, you'll be both excited and recharged to jump in with all your new knowledge and connections!

News by Matt S.
Welcome to Digitally Downloaded's weekly news feature, Catch-up coffee Monday. Each Monday we will bring you the best news from the previous week that you may have missed. Grab the biggest mug you've got, fill it with your favourite brew, and catch up with us (and our favourite news anchor, Dee Dee)!
XCOM 2 is indeed console bound!
When XCOM 2 launched on PC a few months ago, we loved it, but at the time there was a question mark over whether it would come to console. The original XCOM landed on everything - including mobile devices, but 2K was being very cagey when quizzed about XCOM 2's potential ports. Thankfully the game seems to have sold well enough on PC that 2K is backing a console port, and it's coming to PS4 and Xbox One on September 8, 2016.

Summon Night 6 is coming to PS4 and Vita
Gaijinworks announced that it is bringing Summon Night 6 to the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. This is the first game from the localiser and publisher that will be on the PS4, and we're all for more tactics strategy games on that console. From the press release: "Combat is only one part of the Summon Night 6 experience. The series is well known for its "night conversations"—one-on-one encounters where various characters confide in one another, leading to a web of elaborate, emotional storytelling with many different branching paths. Lost Borders also includes several charming mini-games: One has you fishing for different types of aquatic creatures, while another involves cooking power-up meals using the bounty you've caught with your fishing pole."
This game will land in the first quarter of 2017.

1979 Revolution: Black Friday has been banned in Iran
When we reviewed 1979 Revolution, we said that it was a must-play, important experience. Unfortunately if you're Iranian, you're going to be missing out on that experience. The game has been banned in the country that it's about. In an email from the developers: "Hassan Karimi of the Iran National Foundation for Computer Games (NFCG) explained the decision to Tehran Times, stating that 'Games like this can poison the minds of the youth and young adults about their country by means of false and distorted information, and also damage their spirits.'"

Miku's collaboration with Anamanaguchi is amazing
Just in case you've missed this, Anamanaguchi used Hatsune Miku for a music track recently, and it's incredible. This one's in English, too - perhaps Miku's English voice bank, and it has been doing the rounds, because it's catchy and bright and cheerful, even for non-Miku fans. So, if you haven't heard it yet, it's time to catch up!
Also, the track mentions 2020 - a sign that our girl's going to be performing at the Olympics? Fingers crossed!

It looks like the 2020 BMW 7 Series is getting a facelift and although BMW hasn't released any details, a leaked photo has surfaced on Instagram.
Instagram user fdnidin posted a photo of the front end of the revised 2020 7 Series, which reveals a massive new grille and updated headlights. The new grille looks close to X7's grille, while the new headlights look similar to the 2019 BMW 3 Series.
It's expected that the refreshed 2020 BMW 7 Series will debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, but sales of the flagship sedan aren't expected to kick off in the US until the second part of 2019.
Under the hood we can expect the 2020 BMW 7 Series to get some updates to its engine options, to comply with Europe's Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure. The engine sizes will remain the same, but we can expect the power outputs to change a bit.

There's something to be said for someone who can tell you their honest opinion, no matter how harsh, and not feel bad about it. Strong personalities tend to be vocal about the truth and for the most part, it comes from a place of love and concern. I've learned that sugar coating really doesn't help another person, especially if they straight up ask for your opinion.
If you've read any of my previous posts, you may have noticed that I like to tell it how it is. This is because I'm probably saying what a lot of people are thinking and what good does it do to just think it? I know I'm not always right because clearly everyone has their own opinion. However, I don't want you to leave the house with a terrible outfit so I might save you from that when someone else would just think about how much they hate what you're wearing. And I don't want you to date an asshole so I'll remind you of all the reasons you can do better when someone else might just be thinking how much he sucks.
So like I said, most of the time, the lack of sugar coating comes from a place of love. I've been lucky enough to have friends who are this way to me as well. There are always times when certain circumstances blind us from reality. Even if they don't want to hear it at the time, whatever you say to your friend will be in the back of their mind as they live out the scenario you shared your opinion about. And later on down the road, you won't be able to think, "I wish I would have said something…"
I should go ahead and give you a fair warning. In an upcoming post, I'm probably going to make you feel bad for going home with a guy on the first date, but you can't get mad at me for it because now you know that I'm only speaking the truth out of love and concern. I just really want you to live your dream life. That's why I created this blog after all. So go speak the truth to someone without feeling bad because if there's a time you can't think of something nice to say, you're probably just being realistic. And it's better to keep it real.

Darryl Radburn recognised for his long history in marathon running
He's a veteran of numerous City2Surf runs and marathons in Hawaii and Melbourne, but crossing the line at last Saturday's Bathurst parkrun is something that Darryl Radburn is sure to regard among his finest achievements.
Mr Radburn, a resident of Whiddon Kelso, was presented with a medal from the aged care facility to recognise his storied history as a runner.
Cassandra Jones, Mr Radburn's daughter, said it was remarkable to see her father return to an activity he's always loved.
"With Dad, it's always been more about participation than winning, and this event was a great way to see off his running career," Ms Jones said.
"After a minor stroke, he lost a lot of confidence in himself, so it was extraordinary to see the staff at Whiddon put this together for Dad."
Mr Radburn's participation was part of Whiddon's Best Week program, which provides a week of activities tailored to a selected resident.
"What Darryl loved most about the event was what he's always loved about the sport- being in the moment, enjoying the atmosphere and chatting to other runners," Whiddon Kelso director of care services Nicole Mahara said.
"It was an honour to be by Darryl's side."

Eagle Scout taking flight
DJ Stender is embarking on his Eagle Scout project.
He has noticed a place of improvement at Blooming Prairie High School. For his Eagle Scout project, he has proposed the idea of implementing a cement patio on the south side of the main entrance.
"It would help benefit the school by making the area look nicer and have a place to sit." Stender explains, "The current location is just dead grass, because that is where they push the snow every winter."
He has been in talks with administration at the school, mainly superintendent Olson, who has been cooperative and respectful of his ambitions. The school has a noticeable lack of seating outside, Stender hopes to bring this problem to light in discussions with administration.
Stender is a sophomore at BPHS. He has been in the Boy Scouts since 1st grade. "In those eight years, I have found that living by the scout law has helped me in life," he reflected.
He's had high hopes of becoming an Eagle Scout from one day, since being a boy scout has been the "greatest adventure" of his life.
The great leadership skills that he has attained he also credits to being a Scout. "It has shown me the importance of leadership skills and planning this endeavor."
For those of you who want to stand behind this idea and help propel it forward, Stender is currently fundraising and taking donations. If anyone would like to submit donations, they can be sent to: 52482 320th St., Blooming Prairie, MN, 55917. All checks to be made out to "troop 50".

So today the news that many have been expecting for a while came, Steve Jobs is resigning as CEO of Apple – although he is remaining as chairman. There was also the predictable nose dive in the Apple share price. But why?
Jobs has been on medical leave since the beginning of the year, indeed it is his third bout of medical leave over the past few years, but Apple has continued to grow. The news has been expected, and yes whilst it is undeniably sad news, it is perhaps more sad on a personal level for Steve and his family than anything else.
Whilst the markets may see Apple as some sort of glorified sole trader, it isn't. Whilst the company may have been driven by Jobs, to do that he has brought together a strong team, in particular it has been Tim Cook who is credited with the efficiencies in the Apple supply chain, and Jonathan Ive who is credited with the design of pretty well every Apple product over recent years. There is also a team of dedicated software engineers who have produced MacOS X and iOS, it's not all Steve Jobs.
Undeniably things will gradually change with Steve Jobs stepping back, but all the key team members that Jobs has put in place will remain, so Apple is not going to instantly implode just because Steve Jobs has resigned. The company will continue. This is a sad moment in the story of Apple, not the end of the story. However if Tim Cook decides to buy a software company, drops iOS and flogs off all the stock of iPhone's, iPod's and iPad's at 70% discount and decides to sell of Mac production because there is more money to be made in software services…

For a while now I've been concerned that due to China's massive appetite for debt it was going to experience a severe correction. When you consider the debt levels in China, they absolutely dwarf the levels the USA experienced during the global financial crisis of 2008. So where is China at now and are the debt levels like an elastic band that is being stretched more and more?
It's estimated the total Chinese debt-to-GDP ratio has risen to 317 per cent at the end of 2017. Compared to 158% at the end of 2008 means this number is continuing to rapidly increase.
In real terms this means the amount of debt in China grew to RMB 262.1tn at the end of 2017, representing a year-on-year grown of 13.5 per cent. Considering China's nominal GDP growth was at 11.2 per cent yoy in 2017, the rate of credit grown continued to exceed the rate of nominal growth.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) pointed out in 2016 that it took four units of debt to raise the GDP by one unit. A decade ago the ratio was 1.3 to one. It's clear that China has a serious debt problem that could potentially drag the global economy down.

Novel Secrets
By Amy Christine Parker
Writers are thieves. Everything we put into a novel is stolen: research, our personal lives, things we over hear, other forms of art we're exposed to. Okay, okay, I know. I'm being a bit overdramatic here—maybe borrowed or inspired is more accurate than stolen—but it just sounds cooler (and we are taking about a heist book here), so I'm rolling with it. When you spend most of your day drinking tea and typing on a computer in a bathrobe while mumbling to yourself, you have to grab the cool where you can. But now that you know I don't come up with story details straight out of thin air, you probably have questions, like how much of what I wrote in Smash & Grab about the characters or the plot was directly inspired by true events and stuff from my personal life?
Well, that's my secret.
…Or it was until today.
I'm about to confess.
But let's keep this between us.
Here, in no particular order are six secret, stolen inspirations for Smash & Grab:
Christian and the Romero Robbers plan to tunnel under the bank: A group of thieves actually did tunnel under a bank in LA years ago. They were never caught.
The movie dumbwaiter in the bank building: the woman who let me tour her bank talked about another, historic bank she used to work for years ago and mentioned that it had a dumbwaiter so that cash from the teller floor could be transported directly to the vault. I loved the idea of it so much, I knew I wanted to have one in Smash & Grab. You can watch someone investigate an old, historic bank in Philly that has a dumbwaiter here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drRB_J5T12E
The dumbwaiter shows up at about 4:10.
The doughnut date scene in the book came about because my husband has two customers who recently opened a doughnut shop here in Tampa called the Mini Doughnut Factory. Yes, their maple bacon one is my favorite!
I chose to name Christian's group of thieves the Romero Robbers because Night of the Living Dead was the first movie that made me stay up all night and I am a huge Walking Dead fan. They needed masks, why not zombie ones?
Lexi's fish tattoo was borrowed from a short story I did a long time ago before I was published. The girl in that story had a goldfish tattoo that peeked over the top of her sock. I've always liked the image and wanted it to be in something that would be more widely read then that first story. This book was the perfect opportunity!
The character Leo—my main character Lexi's best friend—has a photography hobby that was inspired by my oldest daughter who is fourteen. She is an amazing photographer and is always documenting our family outings the way Leo does. She discovered her passion for taking pictures while I was writing this book and so into the story it went! Here is one of her photos of her younger sister:
And there you have it, the inside scoop on all the things that came together to make Smash & Grab a reality. Zombies, doughnuts, and dumbwaiters, oh my!

Charleston, South CarolinaCharleston, South Carolina is one of my very favorite cities in the U.S. Charleston has the second largest number of destination weddings in the country numbering over 12,000 following only Las Vegas. So every chance I get, I go to Charleston. This past weekend I was asked to come to Charleston to photograph Aly and her wedding and work with the wonderful designer and visionary Julie Murphy.
This very historic town is filled with wonderful architecture; a rich Southern heritage; a town that survived two invasion - the British Army and the Federal Army during the Civil War; and extremely pleasant people to work with. Aly's portraits were created around Charleston's famous Rainbow Row and Broad Street. I chose those areas because of their outstanding architecture and color that only Charleston can boast. Her gorgeous gown was designed by the Austrialian designer Leonard Derecourt. As you will see the photographs this French Haute Couture designer has a different flair for detailing in the bodice and lace work. Very remarkable work. And with the gown in mind and Aly's wish to be in theatre or modeling, I photographed her more from a fashion portrait.
So enjoy the photographs, let me know what you think, and the wedding images will come later.

WCW Monday Nitro
Jump to navigation Jump to search
WCW Monday Nitro was a professional wrestling program that aired on TNT Monday nights from September 4th, 1995 to March 26 2001.
September 4[edit]
- [Recent ex-WWF talent Lex Luger shows up at the beginning of the Sting/Ric Flair matchup.]
- Eric Bischoff: [notices Lex] Oooh, what in the hell is he doing here?! Get the camera off of him!
- Steve "Mongo" McMichael: What is this?
- Bobby "The Brain" Heenan: Wait a minute. He's got a right to be here, this is a public mall.
- Eric: Get him out of here!
- Steve: Somebody call the security guards!
- Eric: (crowd starts chanting "Luger! Luger!") What?! Get the security and get him out of here!
- Bobby: What's he doing wrong? What is he doing wrong?
- Steve: This is just unabashed arrogance.
- Eric: We have a major problem here.
- Bobby: We have a situation starting here. A big one.
- Eric: I want to know what he's doing here.
- Bobby: Well don't ask me! Get on the headsets to the truck, ask somebody.
May 27[edit]
- Tony Schiavone: Welcome back live to the first hour of this edition of WCW Monday Nitro on TNT! Tony Schiavone and Larry Zbyszko. And we are taking a look at the Mauler completely maul his opponent Steve Doll.
- (Scott Hall, formerly known as Razor Ramon in the WWF, is seen in the crowd.)
- Larry Zbyszko: Well you know, Steve Doll's trying to get an offensive going.
- Tony: Wait a minute! What the hell is going on here?
- Larry: But the Mauler, well he just got reversed right there. The Mauler runs him down.
- Tony: That's not what I'm talking about.
- Larry: What are you talking about?!
- [Hall leaps over the railing]
- Tony: Look here.
- Larry: Well, what the hell?
- Scott Hall: Get me a mic!
- Larry: What's with this?
- Tony: We need security out here. I have no idea, wait a minute! I can't believe what we're seeing.
- Scott Hall: [climbing into the ring] Hey, you people, you know who I am, but you don't know why I'm here. Where is Billionaire Ted? Where is the Nacho Man? That punk can't even get in the building. Me, I go wherever I want, whenever I want. And where, oh where is Scheme Gene? 'Cause I've got a scoop for you. When that Ken doll lookalike, when that weatherman wannabe comes out here later tonight, I got a challenge for him, for Billionaire Ted, for the Nacho Man and for anybody else in uh...WCW, huh-huh-huh. Hey, you want to go to war? You want a war? You're going to get one!
- Tony: Fans, what about the match? I don't know what to say. Randy Anderson's coming-- Randy. Randy, what's going on here? What about the match, Randy? What's going on? The match. Fans, we've gotta go to a break.
- Larry: The match left!
- Tony: I have no idea what to say. Stay with us. Geez.
- Scott Hall: Hey, lookie here. Ken doll, you got such a big mouth and we, we are sick of it.
- Eric Bischoff: What do you mean? Who's we?
- Scott Hall: You know who. This is where the big boys play? What a joke! I tell you what, you go tell Billionaire Ted, you tell him "Get three of his very very best." Maybe the Nacho Man! "Oooooooh....No." Hey, maybe he can get the Stinger! Ooooh, I'm so scared. You go get anybody you want because we...
- Eric: What do you mean "We"?
- Scott Hall: We are taking over. You wanna go to war? You wanna war? You got one. Only, let's do it right. In the ring where it matters. Not in no microphones. Not in those newspapers or dirtsheets. Let's do it in the ring where it matters. If uh, if Billionaire Ted and his big boys, if they got any guts...
- Eric: You're stepping over the line.
- Scott Hall: Because we are coming down here and like it or not, we are taking over.
- Eric: You're outta here!
June 3[edit]
- [Scott Hall appears again at the announce booth]
- Scott Hall: Just relax chico. Yo, Ken Doll, I had such a good time last week that I came back for more.
- Eric: Look there's no reason...
- Scott Hall: Look, look, look, relax man, relax. You started it. You want to go to war? You got a war. You started it, we gonna finish it.
- Eric: What do you mean "We"? You come up with this We stuff.
- Scott Hall: You know who man. You know who. Did Daddy Warbucks? Did he get his money yet?
- (Sting comes out)
- Eric: Wait a minute, Stinger. Not here, not now. Don't even dignify it man.
- Sting: You came out here last week and said some real horrible things about WCW. Some real horrible things about the Hulkster, about the Macho Man, about the Stinger. Somewhere along the way, you got lost because do you have any idea where you are? You're in the jungle baby! This is WCW! That's right! Hold on! And every week you come out here and you say you want three of the best.
- Scott Hall: That's right man, three of the best.
- Sting: You want three of the best, I don't see two of you. All I see is you and me. So why don't we just do this one on one right here, right now!
- Scott Hall: Yo, yo, you wanna fight man? You wanna fight? You got one. Only, no one tells me what to do and chico, nobody tells me when to do it. [throws his toothpick at Sting. Sting responds by slapping Hall] Ok, ok tough guy. I got a little, no, I got big surprise for you next week.
June 10[edit]
- [Scott Hall shows up again]
- Eric: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I don't want any trouble from you. I don't want any trouble with you here, now, but I don't have to point out. You came out here last week. Where is it, the big surprise? I mean I heard a lot of talk but where's the walk? [Hall points behind Eric] What? Where is he?
- (Kevin Nash, formerly known as Diesel in the WWF, appears from behind and grabs the mike)
- Kevin Nash: You've been sitting out here for six months running your mouth. This is where the big boys play, huh? Look at the adjective, play [sic]. We ain't here to play! Now, he (Hall) said last week that he was going to bring somebody out here. I'm here. You still don't have your three people and do you know why? Because nobody wants to face us. This show's about as interesting as Marge Schott reading excerpts from Mein Kampf.
- Eric: No trouble tonight, man. Speak your piece and...
- Kevin Nash: Yeah, no trouble cause you know, I'll kick your teeth down your throat. Where are these three guys? You know you couldn't get a paleontologist to get these fossils cleared? You ain't got enough guys off a dialysis machine to get a team? Yeah, where's Hogan? Where's Hogan? Out doing another episode of Blunder in Paradise? Where's the Macho Man huh? Doing some Slim Jim commercial? Hey, we're here! You wanna say something?
- Eric: Look, I don't have the authority right here right now. You want a fight? Fight isn't within me. You want to face three guys? Tomorrow morning at 9:00, I'm going to be in Atlanta. I'll be in the offices of WCW. I'll try and get you your fight and do you know what? Live this Sunday in Baltimore, Great American Bash, you guys want to show up? You want a fight? You show up and I'll see if I can get you your fight.
- Kevin Nash: I don't know about you but they love us in Baltimore.
- Scott Hall: Hey big man, I say me and you, we be at the Bash. Maybe these punks want a fight.
- Kevin Nash: Yeah, bring what you got! The measuring stick just changed around here buddy. You're looking at it. [Tosses Bischoff around before he and Hall leave]
July 8[edit]
- Mean Gene Okerlund: Sting, a very somber mood tonight. I can't believe it. I can feel it, you can feel it. These people continue to make our lives very very tenuous. They did it again tonight right in the middle of your match with Arn Anderson. But lets go back to last night. What's your sense of what's happened at the Bash at the Beach?
- Sting: I am not at all surprised. What happened last night, I'm not surprised about coming from the two outsiders. But I will say I'm very very surprised at you Hulk Hogan. But I should've known. I should've known that when you were traveling to every town in that big fat limo. I should've known because you didn't want to travel with the Macho Man, the Total Package and the Stinger. Uhn-uhn, you were too busy making big movies and coming in for a little cameo appearance! You were too busy walking on the dark side! I should've known when you referred to the Macho Man, the Total Package and me as "three little dogs" waiting for a chance to wrestle the great Hulk Hogan. I should've known when I looked into your eyes. Do you know something, I made a mistake. But you made a bigger mistake because last night, you wiped out and trashed every single little kid, every single person that was a part of your life, that patterned their life after you! You told them to believe in the man upstairs! You told them to say their prayers and to take their vitamins! You told them to believe in themselves and you know something? It's a good thing you told them to believe in themselves because they sure as heck can't believe in you!
- Mean Gene: By the way--
- Sting: (grabs mike) And last but not least, to put the cherry on the top, all those little kids, you told them to stick it! No, you stick it Hulk! YOU STICK IT!
- Mean Gene: That is very strong. By the way, as fate would have it, these two men and their partner last night. Lex Luger got knocked out early by the action so the two of you had to go at it against the Outsiders. But Macho Man Randy Savage, you were very close with Hulk Hogan as I was. You were part of the Mega Powers. And if anybody got it stuck up, stuck up, well, stuck to him, you really got it stuck to you.
- Randy Savage: I got a message for Hollywood Hogan. What I want to tell you and what I want to do to you, I can't say here on television especially at Disney. But you take the worst thing you can think about and you multiply it by the number nine million and then you multiply it by infinity and beyond, it would be just like one grain of sand in the Sahara desert brother. Because, it's really really scary. What I'm thinking and going to do to you, yeah!
July 15th[edit]
- Mean Gene: Hulk Hogan, Outsiders, you have led us down the primrose path!
- Hulk Hogan: Well you know something Gene-o, I wish I would've done this two years ago brother because the New World Order is taking over professional wrestling. Hulk Hogan is bigger than the sport of professional wrestling. And with the Outsiders, the new blood, the foundation of the New World Order, we shall rule the wrestling world Mean Gene!
- Mean Gene: What about the children? You know about the thousands and thousands of telephone calls that came into WCW. Every man, woman and child on the face of the earth is totally disgusted with you Hulk Hogan, including myself!
- Hulk Hogan: We all know about the training, the prayers and the vitamins brother and like I said, these people out here, after I led their children down the right path had the gall to boo Hulk Hogan one more time. You fans can stick it brother!
- Mean Gene: Wait a minute, I think Sting and Eric Bischoff brought it up earlier on. I think Sting said it best earlier on when he retorted "Hulk Hogan, you can stick it!"
- Hulk Hogan: Well you know something brother, as far as people like Sting go, ten years ago when I shook his hand in Venice Beach, he was a skinny little bodybuilder. And when he laid his eyes on Hulk Hogan, he was shaking in his boots. I heard all the crying from the so called Macho Man. For three years, he blamed his divorce, the fact that he couldn't rise to the occasion on Hulk Hogan brother. And over and over and over and over again this past week, I've heard WCW blame Hulk Hogan for their problems. The only problem is I'm the greatest wrestler in the world, I made professional wrestling, I will always be bigger than wrestling and with these two friends of mine, the New World Order shall rule the wrestling world!
- Eric: This conceited jerk!
- Mean Gene: You call these guys friends? You know about this man's background and this man's background, this nWo, Where is it going to go? Who's going to be a part of it? I think that's the question we're all asking ourselves and I'm going to ask you.
- Hulk Hogan: Well these are the renegades brother! These are the men that when I open the door brother, they had the guts enough to walk through it. These are the guys that are going to set the trend for the nineties. They will lead Hulk Hogan and professional wrestling to its destiny. But these guys are just the foundation. The thing that everybody, the people out there don't realize is as I build my empire, will there be more outsiders that I bring in? Or will it be people that are so close to Ted Turner, maybe Eric Bischoff's friends. Who knows man? Maybe the guys that are in the locker room right now. There's always been a double loyalty man. In this business, they've been loyal to the promoters who have paid their bills and they've also been loyal to Hulk Hogan. Because they know where Hulk Hogan goes, that's where professional wrestling goes.
- Mean Gene: You have to vent all of this on these people, the peers of this business. How about the kids that have looked up to you for years and years and now it comes down to this? And this is a pretty good example of the way your life is going to go Hulk Hogan.
- Hulk Hogan: Well you know dude, I laid it out straight for all those kids, brother. They didn't want to follow the path, so I'm done with them! But as far as I'm concerned, I'm not going to mess with that skinny little Macho Man or that crybaby Sting. I'm going right to the top of the ladder, brother! And at Hog Wild, brother, on August the 10th, if the Giant has got guts enough, I'm going to dismantle the whole Ted Turner organization in one night. We're going to take the WCW belt, make it the New World Order belt and we shall reign supreme from that day forward. And as far as I'm concerned brother, if Ted Turner has any boys in the back that have any guts at all, come on out right now! We'll beat up the whole WCW right now, and what are they gonna do?!!
September 16[edit]
- [Sting comes down to the ring with a microphone]
- Sting: [with his back turned to the main camera] I want a chance to explain something that happened last Monday night on Nitro. Last Monday night, I was on an airplane flying from L.A. to Atlanta. When I got to Atlanta, I tuned in the TV to Nitro and I thought I was watching a rerun. It was a very convincing film. Often imitated but never duplicated though and what else did I see? I saw people, I saw wrestlers, I saw commentators and I saw best friends, doubt the Stinger. That's right, doubt the Stinger. So, I heard Lex Luger say "I know where Sting lives, I know where he works out, I'm gonna go get him!" So I said to myself, "I'll just go into seclusion. I'll wait and see what happens on Saturday Night." And I tuned in Saturday Night and what did I see? I saw more of the same, more doubt. Which brings me to Fall Brawl. I knew I had to get to Fall Brawl to get face to face with the Total Package to let him know that it wasn't me and what I got out of that was, "No, Sting. I DON'T BELEIVE YOU STING!" Well, all I've got to say is, I have been mediator, I have been babysitter, I've given him the benefit of the doubt about a thousand times in the last twelve months! I have carried the WCW banner and I have given my blood, my sweat and my tears for WCW! So for all of those fans out there and all of those wrestlers and people who've never doubted the Stinger, I'll stand by you if you stand by me. But, for all of the people, all of the commentators, all of the wrestlers and all of the best friends who did doubt me, you can stick it! From now on, I consider myself a free agent. But that doesn't mean you won't see the Stinger. From time to time, I'm going to pop in when you least expect it.
November 18[edit]
- [The show opens with the Outsiders in the ring with chairs having laid out the Nasty Boys and High Voltage. They go down to ringside where Tony and Larry are standing.]
- Larry: Not again. Not again with this!
- Tony: What's the problem here?
- Kevin Nash: Does this work? Nice to see you dressed up this week, Larry! (to Tony) Hey, I don't see you laughing today huh?
- Scott Hall: Funny guy, huh?
- Kevin Nash: I was so funny last week right? Funny like a clown right? Were you laughing at me? I ain't so funny tonight am I? You see, we can put this on any time we want. I can be funny, I can be deadly and so can this man! Hey, let me ask you a question.
- Scott Hall: You got the bad neck, right?
- Kevin Nash: You got the bad neck, right? Do you want to pick up your kids, huh?
- Tony: (to Larry who's not standing up for Tony) Do you want to step in here?
- Larry: Hey, you're the one that laughed at them. They let me know what I think.
- Kevin Nash: You talk about a triangle match, right? There's two of the combatants laid out right now.
- Scott Hall: You know, what I want to know is I've been hearing my whole career how scary the Faces of Fear are. They say, everybody says that Meng and the Barbarian are the two toughest guys in the business. Well you tell those two islanders, come on out here and we'll slap that coconut breath out of you. Tell them to come on down. You can't have a Pay Per View in WCW without inviting the nWo.
- Larry: You can't be upset by what happened. These guys are thugs, they're paid by Dibiase and you're okay. So relax about it, don't be all upset.
- Tony: Yeah well, I don't need to be pushed around. I'm not a wrestler. You're a wrestler. So why didn't you step in front for me? How long have we been friends?
- Larry: You're okay and I'm not Clint Eastwood.
- Tony: Well I can only say this and I'm going to apologize to everybody because I've never done this before at all. But I don't need to be pushed around. I've got five children. I've got a wife. I've got a great job. I'll tell you what, big mouth! Why don't you go ahead? Why don't you go ahead and step in front of me? Why don't you handle the broadcast? Why don't you try play-by-play?
- Larry: Don't get upset!
- Tony: I don't need guys who are seven feet tall coming out here! (takes off his headset and walks away)
- Larry: I don't need guys seven feet tall either coming out here!
February 10[edit]
- [Randy Anderson appears with his family to appeal to Eric Bischoff about hiring him back after the events of Souled Out]
- Eric Bischoff: Kids come on up here. It's all right Randy. It's all right, kids, could you do me a favor. Would you please tell your daddy... that he's still fired? [NWO laughs] Would you do that for me?
- Montana Anderson: Please, Mr Bischoff!
- Bischoff: Montana please, tell your daddy he's fired, get on with his life.
- Kevin Nash: [mocks] Do it for little Tiny Tim!
- Syxx: God bless us everyone!
September 15[edit]
- [The show opens with footage of Ric Flair after being stitched up in a hospital as a result of last night's Fall Brawl when Curt Hennig slammed the cage door in his head]
- Tony Schiavone: [very shaken up] Fans, uh... Nitro, as you can see, is on the air. Before I go into this card, I need to say something that I've really never said before. You know, 13 years ago, I got into this business because of Ric Flair. I was a minor league baseball announcer in this same city. He went to bat for me for the promoters and I became a wrestling announcer and when I look back on what has happened to me, I credit Ric Flair. And you have seen Ric Flair and what hap.......I can't do this show. I'm sorry. [takes off his headset and leaves]
September 22[edit]
- Mean Gene Okerlund: That's very impressive, a gentleman the stature of Hugh Morrus, and you absolutely got in there and manhandled him tonight. [Bill Goldberg just walks away] Sir, I've got to get a little bit more than that. Gentleman's just walking away from me.
- Larry Zbyszko: Is he a mute?
- Mean Gene: I can't believe that. Tony, I haven't seen anything like that. Very impressive. But who is this guy Goldberg?
May 11[edit]
- [Eric Bischoff shoots on DX's recent assaults]
- Eric Bischoff: As I look through the crowd tonight, I wonder what you must be thinking and I wonder what Vince McMahon is thinking. You know because for the last couple of weeks he's been sending his little wannabes around demanding to talk to moi. The only problem with that is, he only sends them where he knows I'm not going to be. That's okay because I've got a little solution. Sean Waltman, you want an apology from me? You actually show up at our offices on a Monday afternoon when I think even you Sean are smart enough to figure out I probably wouldn't be there. As far as the apology goes - bite me! I apologize to no one.
- But I've got a better idea because, Sean, I know you're just a little puppet and you do what Vince McMahon tells you to do, so Vince McMahon, this is for you. I'm coming to your backyard this Sunday. That's right, in Worcester, Massachussetts we've got a little PPV thing going on and I've got a hell of an idea. You want me? I'm gonna be in your back yard. Consider this an open invitation, Vince McMahon. You show up at Slamboree, it will be me and you McMahon, in the ring. How about it, Vinnie? But I want to warn you people right now, if you think Vince McMahon has got the guts to show up, don't buy this PPV because I guarantee you he is not man enough to step into this ring with me. But I'll be there Vinnie Mac, I'll be waiting for you. And I'm going to knock you out. See you there.
July 6[edit]
- Tony Schiavone: The fans stand, showing their signs, and we are walking with Goldberg, and security from Goldberg's own locker room area following with him all the way to the ring, as you look live back in the locker room area. Surrounding Goldberg, some of Atlanta's finest, Doug Dillinger as well with WCW security, and here they come.
- Bobby "The Brain" Heenan: What's going through his mind right now? I've never been in that situation, going for a world championship, let alone with that list of victories this man has, in his backyard, hometown in front of everybody he played for, played with. What an evening, what drama right now.
- Tony: Long walk for Goldberg, but it's been a long wait since he arrived in the Georgia Dome earlier in the day. So what's another long walk for Goldberg? They're almost down here now.
- [Goldberg now walks alone]
- Bobby: Well, Hogan may be taking a long walk too. A real long walk back to the dressing room empty-handed.
- Tony: But could the unblemished mark, the incredible series of wins by Goldberg come to a crashing end here tonight?
- Bobby: And you know, Tony, if Hogan is to defeat this man, you know what the nWo's gonna be like then with Hogan and Eric Bischoff in charge.
- Tony: [as Goldberg reaches the entrance] And there he is.
- Mike Tenay: And here comes the eruption.
- Bobby: Bigger than before.
- Tony: This is his moment.
- [Goldberg stands on the ramp as the pyrotechnics envelope him for twenty seconds. When they subside, he walks to the ring surrounded by the security from before]
- Bobby: It's a long way down.
- Tony: There you look at Goldberg, and think about what Goldberg represents. A virtual unknown in this sport who walked into WCW, and he represents every wrestler who wanted just to walk in here and become the World Champ. That's what he represents as he makes his way to the ring.
- Bobby: He looks ready! Do it for me! Do it for the fans! Get rid of Hogan! And what's Hogan's mentality gonna be at Bash at the Beach if he's not heavyweight champion of the world along with Rodman?
- Bobby: Look at Goldberg! He's ready!
- Tony: He's poised... [Goldberg spears Hulk Hogan] Hogan goes down!
- Bobby: Okay, there's part one! Now finish him off! Finish him off!
- Tony: [Goldberg signals for the Jackhammer] He's calling for it!
- Bobby: This is it! This is it! [Goldberg sets Hogan up for the Jackhammer] Your career's on the line here! Do it! Do it! This place'll erupt when he picks him up.
- Tony: [Goldberg lifts Hogan in a suplex] He's got him up! [...and slams Hogan to the mat] Oh Hell Yeah!
- Tony and Bobby: [counting with the referee] One...
- Tony: [continues] ...two...THREE!!!
- Bobby: OH, THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! We got a new heavyweight champion of the world! The first undefeated man in the history of this sport to ever win the World Championship, and have a record of 107, 108...who cares?! There's zero on the other side! We've got a new champion! Listen to this! [pauses to acknowledge the cheering crowd and "Goldberg" chants] Wow.
- Mike: 31-year-old Bill Goldberg, less than ten months in the sport, is on top of the wrestling world.
- Tony: [off a shirt] "Who's next?"
- Bobby: Who cares?
- Tony: "Who cares" is right.
January 4[edit]
- Tony Schiavone: If you're even thinking about changing the channel to our competition, fans, do not. Because we understand that Mick Foley, who wrestled here one time as Cactus Jack, is going to win their World Title. [sarcastically] That's gonna put some butts in the seats.
- Tony: Fans, I want to reiterate something I talked about before the commercial break. If you're thinking about changing channels to our competition, we want to let you know that unlike us, they've got their show in the can, their show's been taped. Later tonight, Mick Foley, who once wrestled here as Cactus Jack, is gonna win their World Title. I mean, that's gonna be their World Champion. Ha ha!
- Tony: Fans, as you know, it's getting close to the 11:00 hour. We're gonna stay right here, we're gonna follow all the action as long as it takes, so stay with us. These are not taped matches. This is happening live, this is Nitro. [Bell rings] The bell sounds, Billy Silverman making the call. No matter what happens, we're staying with you here tonight.
- Bobby "The Brain" Heenan: Even if it goes on all night, we're gonna be here.
- Tony: That's what we're all about.
- Bobby: We're live!
- ...
- Tony: Listen to the fans! Look at Hogan's reaction!
- Bobby: Over 40,000+! This is better than a playoff game!
- Tony: Hell, this is what pro wrestling, what World Championship Wrestling is all about!
- Tony: [on Hogan] He's been in so many big matches.
- Bobby: Boy, he has.
- [Hogan fakes a punch, then lightly pokes Kevin Nash, who drops to the mat. Hogan covers him.]
- Tony: [as Silverman counts] What was that about? What's going on here? [Silverman counts to three. Hogan, Nash, Hall, and Scott Steiner celebrate in the ring] What just happened here?
- Bobby: This stinks.
- Michael Buffer: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner and new Heavyweight Champion of the world, from nWo Hollywood, Hulk Hogan!
- Eric Bischoff: [having been silent all night] It is unbelievable! The new World Heavyweight Champion, Hollywood Hulk Hogan!
October 11[edit]
- Tony Schiavone: Before we start with tonight's action, Brain, there's something we both, but particularly you, have to say about our longtime friend Gorilla Monsoon.
- Bobby "The Brain" Heenan: Gorilla will be sadly missed. He was one big, tough man, he was a decent honest man, and we're all going to miss him very much. And you know the pearly gates in heaven?
- Tony: Yeah.
- Bobby: It's now gonna be called the Gorilla position. Goodbye, my friend.
February 7[edit]
- [Scott Steiner, his women, and the NWO are in the ring]
- Scott Steiner: Now last week, I was watching TV and I watched a 53-year-old man come down here who wears more loose skin than a Shar-Pei puppy come out here saying he's still "The Man." I see Ric Flair No.2, the Nature Boy come out here, who's been the butt-end of all the jokes, 'cause he's supposed to be the limousine-riding, jet-flying son of a gun, but I'm saying one time, you shoulda take a cab, and used to that money to fix that scrooked yellow teeth! So I asked myself, "if WCW was going to hire the Nature Boy No.2, why wouldn't they hire the Nature Boy, the original Nature Boy, Buddy Rogers?" Now I know that Buddy Rogers is dead - God rest his soul - but Ric Flair, your career is dead! And I know as he lays six feet under, he's still styling and profiling, 'cause when you used your little brain and stole his name, there's one thing you couldn't steal, and that was his class. So when you walked down that aisle last week, I know I wasn't alone, 'cause the people at home, all they did was grab their remote, change the channel to WWF and watch Stone Cold, a person you and your old friends got fired from here 'cause you're a jealous, old bastard. So Ric Flair, remember this, in this wrestling business, there's never been a bigger ass-kissing, butt-sucking bastard in this business, but also in life, you're the biggest ass-kiss, back-stabbing, butt-sucking bastard and you belong where you're at, in WCW, because WCW sucks... and so do you! Me? I'm just gonna stand here in the NWO for life!
April 10[edit]
- [Jeff Jarrett reveals Vince Russo as the Powers That Be]
- Vince Russo: You know, after giving six years of my life to the World Wrestling Federation I came to WCW with one thing in mind - and that was to beat Vince McMahon at his own game! And you know what? Within a matter of weeks, the new blood in WCW was not only getting back in the game, they were changing the game! And that's when the good ol' boy network kicked in - afraid of change, and more importantly afraid of their jobs - the political BS took place in the back to bring Vince Russo down. And you stayin' at home know who you are 'cause you're watching me now. And then one day I'm told that there's gonna be a change in direction - a change that I knew SUCKED! And you know what? I wasn't the only one who knew - Benoit knew - Guerrero knew - Saturn knew - Malenko knew - Douglas knew - and they left! They're gone! Scott Steiner - he knew it, and they suspended his ass! Well you know what? That's all over now. It's done. And Vince Russo is back in charge again. And I wanna turn around now and I wanna say something to everybody in this ring. It is OVER. The old boys management is over. The inflated egos in the back, afraid to lose their spot - it is over. It is the dawning of a new day - it is your opportunity - seize that opportunity!
- [Eric Bischoff appears]
- Eric Bischoff: Are you done yet? Let me tell you something. This man - Vince Russo and I - have more in common than anybody knows. But the big thing is the fact that we were both screwed by the same... good ol' boys network. Vince is right - those days are over. But it's okay! I don't even mind. And you know why I don't mind? Because it's giving me a hell of an opportunity to think about all the great things I did in WCW, but it's also given me an opportunity to realize the mistakes I've made... mistakes like Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Sting, Diamond Dallas Page, and oh yeah, oh yeah... let's not forget Sid "Wished he was" Vicious. But you know what the biggest mistake I've ever made? I mean this is the real big one. Hulk Hogan. I'm sorry - I really am sorry.
- Everybody told me he would screw me - he would use me - they said, do not look into that red and yellow light because you will be blinded. Well, I was blinded, but tonight I've got 20/20 vision - I'm seeing real clearly for the first time in a long time, and right now I want to apologize to everybody in this ring - The New Blood - and I want you guys to know that if there's anything I can do for Vince Russo that will help you, I am there for him - I am there for you, because it is a whole new WCW. And where are they? Where are they, where is Diamond Dallas Page? Where is Sting? Where are they?
- Russo: I think they're hiding in the back with the old tail between their legs.
July 15[edit]
- [Tony Schiavone and Mark Madden talk about the Billy Kidman/Torrie Wilson sex tape on Nitro and the subsequent segment between Torrie and Shane Douglas on Thunder.]
- Tony Schiavone: ... that fueled the fire for this "Viagra on a Pole" Match.
- Mark Madden: I'll tell you... I'll tell you what, you can't come out of here limping in a match like this. You gotta get it up right away and keep it up.
August 14[edit]
- Vince Russo: [Standing in the ring with Tank Abbott at the start of the show] You know, it seems like deja vu all over again. I stood in this very ring one month ago, and I made history. I made an example out of somebody... and you all know who that is, because that piece of shit hasn't been around since! Well tonight, I'm gonna make an example on live TV out of another piece of shit, Goldberg! You don't screw with me and the fact is I came out here tonight to fire Bill Goldberg's ass on national TV! Yeah, cheer for him you asshole Canadians! Well you know what? Brad Siegel wouldn't let me fire Goldberg because the fans love Goldberg! Well I say screw the fans and I say screw Bill Goldberg! And Goldberg, since I could not fire your ass, well I'm going to have your ass kicked right here tonight and he's right here Bill. Remember what happened at the Phillips arena Bill? Well we all know that was bullshit! So I say Bill, you bring it out here and lets call it in the ring. Do it Tank! You know, let me explain something to you assholes! You see, Bill Goldberg, Bill Goldberg believes in his own little mind that if this world were real, then he could take everybody! He could kick everybody's ass! He could kick your ass Tank! You know Bill, you think you're Superman, you think you're invincible, you think I can't beat you huh? Well I'll tell you what, I've got the kryptonite to stick up your ass tonight pal! What do I got to do? Do I got to beg you to come out here chickenshit?! What's the matter Bill? You don't want to come out here? You don't know the script? You don't know the storyline? Tank will call your ass!
March 19[edit]
- [Booker T calls out Big Poppa Pump and Ric Flair]
- Booker T: Yo Steiner, Flair. I told you I was gonna talk to the man and that man is Eric Bischoff, so shut up and listen.
- Eric Bischoff: [by phone patch] Thank you Booker. For those of you in the arena and all of you watching around the country this evening, I would very much would have chosen to be there tonight in person as I could be but given everything that's going on tonight, that's just not possible. Many of you may know that for the past six months I've been working with a group of people whose goal was - and is - to acquire World Championship Wrestling and to grow it once again to becoming a competitive, dominant wrestling organization worldwide.
- But recently, we've hit a couple of roadblocks that may be in fact brick walls, and while it is still in my power, I want to do something befitting what could be very well the last night of wrestling on the Turner networks. Given the fact that that wrestling has been such an important part of Turner's history for the past 29 years, I've been thinking over the weekend on what I could do to provide an exciting program that this historic event should be. To that end, I want to make an announcement now that next Monday night in Panama City is indeed going to be a "Night of Champions." By that, I mean every championship will be up for grabs, starting with the World Cruiserweight Championship, the Cruiserweight Tag Team Championships, the World Tag Team championship, the US title, and the World Heavyweight will also be up for grabs next Monday night at Panama City. And Scott Steiner, Booker T, I want you to, to be aware now that your match is a "Title Vs Title" match. The contracts are prepared, a WCW representative is standing by to make sure that the contracts are executed. Read them carefully, sign them, be prepared to defend your titles next Monday night. And also given the historic nature of this occasion and my relationship with this company for nearly ten years, I wanna personally extend an open invitation to any former - and I mean any former - World Heavyweight champion in WCW to join us in Panama City, and don't be afraid to bring your boots with you.
- Lastly, Ric Flair, you and I have had a very rocky relationship over the past ten years. While I have a tremendous amount of respect for you and what you've done in wrestling history and what you've done for WCW for so long now, I want to make sure in your case, a promise made is a promise kept - and Ric Flair, it is in your best interest this evening - to kiss Dusty Rhodes' ass. That being said, I'll see you all in Panama City next Monday night, The Night of Champions, thank you.
March 26[edit]
- [After the WCW opening logo, Vince McMahon appears]
- Vince McMahon: Imagine that. Me, Vince McMahon. Imagine that, here I am, on WCW television. How can that happen? Well, there's only one way. You see that it was just a matter of time before I, Vince McMahon, bought my competition. That's right, I own WCW, so therefore in its final broadcast tonight on TNT, I have the opportunity to address [hands gesturing to camera] you the WCW fans. I have an opportunity to address, you the WCW superstars. What is the fate of WCW? Well tonight, in this special simulcast, you will all find out, because the fate - [cups hands] the very fate of WCW is in my hands.
- [Ric Flair comes down to the ring]
- Ric Flair: Did I - Did I - WOOOOO! Did I happen to hear Vince McMahon say he was goin' to hold WCW in the palms of his hands? Is that what he said? Does that mean that YOU are gonna hold Jack Brisco, Dory Funk, Harley Race, the Road Warriors, Sting, Luger, the Steiners, Bagwell, Ric Flair, Steamboat, does that mean you're gonna hold us all in the palm of your hands? To coin a phrase, I don't think so! You know, at twelve o'clock today, someone very special to me said, "Do not go onto that show tonight knowin' it's the last time that you'll ever be on TNT or TBS" - knowing it's the last time, she said to me, "Don't go out there and cry - don't go out there and say you're sorry" because I'm not - I've been fourteen times the World Champion - in my eyes, one of the greatest, you got it! The greatest wrestling organization in the world - WCW!
- We... I'm talkin' about the Stings, the Lugers, the Steiners, the Road Warriors - I'm talkin' about my best friend, Arn Anderson and the Four Horsemen - we have been on a par, and we have been equal to any wrestling organization in the world - as a matter of fact, we have run neck and neck with you, Vince McMahon, for years - for YEARS - and just for trivia, Vince McMahon, do you know that in 1981, when you were trying to become an announcer, your dad was on the board of directors and voted for ME to be the world champion - WOOOO! How 'bout that? And ever since that day, I have been a limousine-ridin', jet-flyin', kiss-stealin', wheelin-dealin', son of a gun, that along with the whole WCW dammit all, have kissed the girls worldwide, and made 'em cry! 'Cause ya see, we were every bit the force, we were WCW - we lived, we breathed, we sweat, we paid the price to be the best - never been about the boys - it's always been WWF vs. the WCW in the office - the boys that have gone out there, night in and night out, doing everything they could to be the very best at what they chose to do in their life - those boys are here tonight - we are!
- We're not going anywhere, you can't hold us in your hands and predict our life! We're WCW! We've bled and we've sweat - when was the last time you wrestled for an hour, cut yourself five times, bled for 45 minutes... when were you there? You weren't! You weren't! You were never in the dressing room, on the road 40 days and 40 nights, bleedin', sweatin', goin' to the next town, you weren't there, you can't hold people's lives in your hands. We're the greatest wrestling company of all time - I wanna say it again - you can't control us or our future, and in closing, let me say this - in all my years in this sport, my greatest opponent with this company has been Sting - so tonight, if we're going out, if we're going out on a high note, Stinger, the Nature Boy wants you right here, because - that's right - that's right - ya hear it, Sting? Sting, my greatest opponent - Sting, it's your last chance - your last chance to be... [crowd chants Sting] Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting - Sting! To be - the man, you've gotta beat the man, and Sting... I'M. THE. MAN. WOOOOOO!

I am shedding my imaginative and prescient to a thief called AMD, or age-related macular degeneration. I'm the third technology in my household and the youngest to be diagnosed with AMD. I was recognized at the age of fifty two. There isn't a treatment for this thief that's stealing my vision—no magic tablets, no surgical treatment, no motion I can take to stop the thief. At greatest, I can fight to gradual him down however ultimately, he will win. I've learn and loved each of those books, and both made me snort and cry. Even when you're not occupied with buying, take a look at the Scent of the Lacking Amazon web page, which has some nice photographs of the search dog named Puzzle and a Q&A with author/handler Susannah Charleson. DPI shouldn't be confused with accuracy. Accuracy comes extra in the kind of sensor you are getting, the floor you're utilizing, and the way properly your hand works with the DPI you've gotten set. I've not seen an MMO-centric mouse up to now few years that hasn't had enough DPI.
Opening your photograph in Paint, saving it with a brand new file identify, and resizing the image should only take a couple of minutes to finish. Adding grid lines to the picture will take a bit more time however the finish result's definitely worth the additional effort. Maybe if I may harness solar energy, wind energy, hydro energy and produce enough methane to cover all my power requirements twelve months of the year, I might take into account getting rid of my generator and my wood burning stoves.
Netbooks may be considered mini laptops. They are smaller in size, worth, and processing energy. Similar to Chromebooks, they are primarily designed for internet searching, electronic communication, and cloud computing. They are catered to customers who require much less highly effective consumer computers. Grid Lines – You may set Grid Line options in case you favor some assist in aligning your subject throughout the display screen. This selection superimposes a set of lines throughout the display, supplying you with a neater information with which to line up a horizon, for example, than the underside/top of the display.
Wormcity counsel covering the bottom of the primary worm tray (which is positioned directly over the sump housing) with cardboard or newspaper. How many scary tales happen within the woods? Anytime a character enters a darkish forest, you realize something horrible is about to happen. Back in 1996, a company referred to as Palm Computing developed a gadget referred to as Palm 1000. It was revolutionary in conception but did not really construct consumer pleasure.
That is all the time a great rule when creating photos. The larger original will resize down rather a lot easier and look best. When ever you attempt to resize bigger there may be issues with pixelation (which implies the dots will unfold out and create holes in the image. It will look as if the ink was operating out when you printed it). Use colored duct tape to create temporary designs, phrases, or directional arrows on low-pile carpeting.

Given time I could probably list a lot more things I can't live without, ya know now that I'm a Mammy….nights out…with straightened hair…wearing ridiculous shoes…drinking alcoholic drinks…sorry I digress. This post is about Mammy related things that I reeeally appreciate exist!
So here we go;
- The Premium Quality Bottle Brush from Poundland. Yep! Poundland! We gratefully received a Tommee Tippee steriliser set (turns out our son is not a boob guy!) as a gift, which was brilliant.HOWEVER, I dreaded the bottle brush supplied. The shape of it wouldn't fit into the teeth to clean it and the weird, ridged, rubber bit that was supposed to be for teeth cleaning did nowt! I finally found this old school style one in Poundland…thank the Gods! The sponge really helps get around the bottom of the bottle and it's got an extendable mini brush for teeth cleaning. Yay!!!
- Ok so once I'd decided Small Monkey was hardened enough be able to cope with everyday germs, I packed up my steriliser and washed his bottles in the sink. Lord God, it would drive me nuts having the bottles standing on the draining board drying (for aaaaages). All you had to do was look at them and they'd fall over, until I seen a friends Poundland bottle drying rack. Of course they had none when I went looking for one so I ended up buying the Munchkin Bottle Rack. THE BEST £7.50 I EVER SPENT!! HAH!! In yo' face bottles!
- L'oreal Kids Tangle Tamer….I lovvvvve yoooooou!! Small Monkey has gorgeous curly hair but at night a small bird, or maybe a fieldmouse comes in and creates a snuggley nest in the back of it. One or two squirts of my trusty tangle tamer and a little comb through and a ruffle and it's curl city again. You can use the spray in damp or dry hair and it's non greasy too. Be warned though, your child may not appreciate having to sit there an extra few minutes while you sniff their head…the spray is pear scented and smells amazing! You're welcome!
- Dry shampoo. I will admit, pre-baby I used to think people who used this were maybe a little bit lazy…just wash your hair like!! However, I'll now apologise, these people surely have kids and time is of the essence. I am now the proud owner of a larrrrge can of Batiste Dry Shampoo. It's just so handy for when I've gone to bed at night, saying I'll get up early and wash me hair then I don't and my hair looks like poop. Just spray it on the problem area, "ruffle" it in, brush 'n' go.
- Mugshots! Pasta in a mug, pour boiling water on, wait a couple of minutes, eat! Quick, easy, handy food, great for busy Mammy's or Daddy's in a hurry. I know it's not ideal but sometimes there is just no time for eating yourself.
- Mini raisin packets. A good healthy, snack or bribe for when you're out and about. I have packets of these in nearly every bag, Small Monkey is a big fan and at least I know he's getting some of his 5 a day down him.
- Mini Magnetic scribbler. OMG!!! Thank God for this little piece of plastic (although it is also the cause of many a row, even between older kids). It's also a great bribe tool for luring Small Monkey into the buggy when we're needing to get somewhere quick.
Munchkin Non-Spill Cup. I only discovered this a couple of months ago and it's brilliant. I bought it mainly for when we're out and about as it doesn't leak all over my bag. I went through loads of "pop-up straw" type ones but they all ended up leaking, plus I was a bit concerned Small Monkey would get lazy when it came to using a regular cup. I'm not going to tell you how it works as it's funny trying to figure it out (hubby threw out the packaging before I could read it), but I will say, I nearly lost the head half way down the Old Kent Rd one day when little man was looking for a drink and this fecking cup wouldn't work!
- Lidl Wetsuit & Wellies. A friend of mine has twin boys, a similar age to Small Monkey, and staying in because of the rain (within reason) is sometimes not an option, so she has a supply of wetsuits and wellies for them. Inspired by this I went in search of one for my little sausage and lo, Lidl answered my call. The smallest sizes I could see available in the wetsuits was from one & a half upwards, the wellies a size 7, both came in various colours and the wellies light up. You can get a trouser bottom or a dungaree to match the jacket, I chose the dungaree, which have adjustable soldier straps, with two fasteners on the waist area to tighten it slightly. There's also an elasticated strap to go under the foot to hold them in place. Both the coats and the bottoms have elasticated sleeves and ankles and are fleece lined. The boots are also fleece lined. The suit itself has a cute car print on it and reflective strips, I have to say I really am delighted with this purchase and I think Small Monkey is too. He knows I won't give him grief if he jumps in puddles wearing this get-up annnnd his boots light up! When I bought mine the jackets and coats were £8 each or two items for £14. The wellies were £7. (They had some in my local store again today so go check your local out).
- Mattress protectors. By day I sell beds so I can tell you having a mattress protector on your bed should be as normal as having a sheet on it for various reasons. Last week though, my poor baba had a vomiting bug, and although I did have to change the beds (mine twice, his once) my waterproof mattress protectors saved the puke seeping into our mattresses. FYI…it's always useful to have more than one mattress protector.
So there ya go now, I hope you found some usefulness in this post and please do feel free to share your "lifesaving" bits 'n' pieces with me too.

Inspiration: Jace in Madagascar VideoOctober 26, 2009
Jace (HERE) has been a great source of inspiration since I first saw his work in the book Street Logos several years back. Recently he painted in Madagascar with the people of Anakao for two weeks. Check out the video of his trip below.

NVIDIA has been pushing its 3D Vision stereoscopic support for what feels like a long while now and AMD got in on the game via its HD3D Technology open eco-system with the launch of its Radeon Catalyst 10.3 driver back in March. Who are we missing, though? Oh, Intel!
During our visit to the ASRock headquarters today, we got an early look at one of their Intel H67 Express based motherboards and noticed something interesting on the packaging. Something along the lines of "Intel" and "3D" in the same line got our attention pretty quickly.
It turns out that as long a H67 motherboard comes with a HDMI 1.4a connector, Intel will be able to provide 3D support to desktop systems early in 2011 when the Sandy Bridge platform officially goes on sale around CES time.
The technology used is "InTru 3D" and it was originally thought the technology would only be reserved for laptops. The Sandy Bridge HD Graphics IGP (onboard graphics) will be able to process full dual H.264, VC1 and MPEG-2 high definition decodes, which is what is required to provide 3D viewing.
One of ASRock's upcoming motherboards will include a free set of red and blue polarized lense glasses, pictured above. When asked what type of software would be required for 3D Blu-ray playback, the comment was that any software could be used. As far as quality goes, unfortunately we didn't see a demo, but when asked, the comment was that it provides "acceptable" quality and considering the cost of entry into 3D on this platform is basically free once you've bought the motherboard (no expensive active shutter glasses required like the NVIDIA 3D Vision solution), it sounds like a pretty good deal to us.
Final conclusions on Intel's 3D technology will be reserved until we can try it out for ourselves.
