Filming is great. You can make films and send them to companies to get you sponsored. Vids can also just be made so you can see a trick that you did or even an interview. They are great.

Hello,

I am Dane Manuel, I am a skater from Baton Rouge, La. I want to say something because I have found it to be terrifying in a lot of ways, so here it is:

There is a group of "medical doctors" called Psychiatrists. These "doctors" are currently on a campaign to drug all of our citizens with dangerous psychotropic drugs that are for "mental disorders".  They are targeting young people for the fact that we are energetic and bright and these drugs dumb one down and make one feel more depressed than when one wasn't taking them before! So a quick fact for you, look at EVERY school shooting EVER and you will see that EVERY kid involved with these school shootings were on the said psychotropic drugs, interesting? I would like to talk about one particular "disorder" called A.D.D.  You see this one "disorder" has brought more psychotropic drugs than one can count and is a big HOAX, in the DSM (diagnostics statistical manual), written and made by The APA (American Psychiatric Association), it is said that A.D.D is caused by a chemical imbalance ... Which there is NO scientific test for or proof of any kind!!! So then i ask you this question "what is the proper balance if there is an imbalance?" no one can tell YOU that ...

So, by the way, there is a "disorder" for everything one does in this DSM. Let me give you an example: If you fight with your brother of sister, you have "Sibling Rivalry Disorder" Who the hell doesn't fight with their siblings!?!? My second question is: how the hell will taking a pill/drug help you with your siblings? Here is something to think about: you can have trouble with math, then, per the DSM you have Mathematical Disorder [MMD] that YOU WILL NEED A PILL FOR???? Jesus flippin christ... need I say more?

I will write more if you want more or FOR MORE INFORMATION GO TO www.CCHR.org (Citizens Commision on Human Rights) visit it you will be blown away!!!!

P.S. Psychiatry is supposed to mean the "study of the soul" per it's definition, however, they believe a materialistic view and deny the existence of a soul and so are in conflict with themselves - and really - it's all about the money!!!

By: boydsurf


my area just recently added a new skate park with a nice bowl.i have not been skating for a couple of years now but am starting to go again.i need a new board and setup.since i have been in hiatus from skating i noticed a trend in narrowing in the boards.what setup is good for transition from bowls and quaters to handrails and stairs.i am 34 so when i started i was used to the wider boards and it looks like there may be a returning trend.does anyone have any input?thanks.

CORE Action Takes on the Action Sports Community


Grapevine, Texas (November 21, 2008)--CORE Action has entered full-steam into the action sports social culture. Having completed its beta-stage the CORE Action website has launched revealing its edgy, gritty look and first-rate content. At the heart of COREaction.com is the Nation, an action sports community that provides a forum for enthusiasts of all ages to communicate, share and express themselves through the sports they love.

CORE Action also provides its viewers with day-to-day coverage of what's happening in the action sports world--skateboarding, snow sports, surfing, motocross, BMX and water sports are all covered highlighting the best news, events, photos and videos from each discipline. CORE also informs and entertains users with in-house video coverage, featuring one-on-one interviews with top-pros, hot on the scene action from local and national events and short entertaining vignettes to get the adrenaline pumping.

While CORE reports on what's going on in the pro scene, our real ambition is to provide a forum for the young and up-and-coming athletes to get their story out and let themselves be known. Gone are the days of sending in "sponsor-me" tapes to companies in desperate and often futile attempts to get noticed. With CORE, the athlete can log-on to the Nation and post a bio, videos and photos in an effort to promote themselves within the community. CORE's main objective is to support the sport's underdogs and amateurs and to forge lasting partnerships within our member network as we grow into the future.

"Not only do we provide up-to-date original content, but we do it in a safe environment where kids are protected and can be among their peers." Kent Holcomb, President of CORE Action explains, "We closely follow the COPPA laws which protect underage kids from predators and mature content."

Nick Moscia CORE Action Marketing Director agrees, "We're all about reaching out to the action sports community. For us, it's about the kids. This is a place where they can hang out, chat with friends and check out the latest videos, news and events."

The CORE staff comes from within the action sports culture--skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, BMX and motocross. From the slopes of the Rocky Mountains to waves of Cocoa Beach, Florida, the CORE crew are embedded in their prospective scenes. Preserving the culture and empowering riders to enjoy their sports and to reach full potential is our objective at CORE Action.


CORE Philosophy--Within every discipline of action sports lay a CORE group of people. They are the ones pushing the boundaries and limits on a daily basis. CORE riders raise the bar and create new standards for the rest to follow. They are the epicenter of the Industry and help keep our Culture alive and thriving. These devoted folks eat, drink and sleep the sport which they are true to and willingly make sacrifices to keep the ride going. Living a CORE lifestyle defines these individuals and establishes a place for them in this world...

CORE Action was founded in 2007 and is an internet-based action sports community which specializes in social networking and providing premium action sports related content. For more information go to www.COREaction.com.

Given the current turmoil in the market and subsequent impact on real estate, Hindustan Construction Company has decided to put on hold its planned townships in Pune, Nasik and Thane. Land acquisitions for these projects have been deferred for now given the high interest rates and low liquidity in the market. HCC will focus more on government projects in power and water sectors and will look to bid for PPP projects with caution.

Something interesting happened at work today.  As I was conversing with a fellow associate about what they should do in their current situation (in relevance to relationships and some small financial matters) they stopped me...


  That person asked me why are you so good at helping others and you know everything to say at the right moment but everytime I see you it seems that you're troubled or disturbed mentally or in deep thought or either just downright depressed and if anything just apathetic most of the time if you don't have those headphones in your head?  It seems like nothing just will ever go your way no matter how faithful you are to someone or how honest you are and how respectful you are...how do you maintain that type of composure even though everything just falls down everyday on you?

  At first I didn't really know what to say.  As the person elaborated on and on I decided to elaborate just a tad bit on basically how to cope but not to much because that wouldn't be me.  I elaborated just enough to show a scratch of the surface of my situation.

  This person stopped me again when I was just about through with explaining and told me something else.  This person told me that no matter how self-sufficient I am and how much I sit and ponder alone then solve my issues myself there is going to be that day when I just breakdown and everything comes out...and who's there to hear you out is completely depending on the actions I make now.  I hear that a lot so I wasn't phased but as I reflect upon my past a bit I think to myself....


  I have to end this now.  I am still a bit perplexed due to some other abstract thoughts and new matters thrown at me to dwell in thought over my hours of "Sleep" so I guess I'll finish this another time.  Peace kids.

It was unknown untill it gradually presented it's self as a pre-conceived notion of happiness and a source of solace that one can throw themselves into oh so willingly knowing the full consequences of forcing a fallacy to become some abstract perspective of what one can only hope to be a reality.  Selfish acts such as what one has done can only be lived with on the lesson that one learns which is even though everything even remotely relevant to a significant other can not be forced or falsely believed to go how one may want it no matter if it always didn't go as planned in the past one has to let it be.  By despertately clinging on to the positive words said by another one can be put into a state of false reassurance that gets obliterated repetitiously by the biased thoughts that are always contemplated by one daily.  It's not an obsession it's the ultimate wish of ones life that was percieved to be actually in ones grasp.  It's the unfathomable feeling that one would want to be able to share.  The ever fluctuating emotions that are always felt is something that can throw one into multiple yet diverse states of depression excitement anxiety hopefulness that are harmful to ones resolve at times.  Never has it been within ones comprehension how someone elses words could be irrelevant but someone that is special to someone can send one into a downwards spiral of psychological bewilderment by just informing one of something that has even the smallest hint of the complete opposite of what one would want.  One's resolve struggles to stand strong but one is only human and can only withstand the tempting malicious charm of giving in and.....just putting one's heart where it belongs....which means alone to one's self.  One strives to analyze situations from diverse perspectives in order to do nothing but understand it all.  One....one would want everything to just be okay just for once.  Impossible it will always be for one to have ad ay of contemplation that doesn't include the single thought of....of you.  One read "surrender was never an option when it came to you" and one procured a perspective that from this day on there will never be just one anymore no matter what the future brings one will keep you in ones heart and when one looks back and notices one meant everything one said...one disappears.....now it's just me....just me standing here standing true to everything I have ever said...Just me remembering how it feels to actually believe for an instant that you meant what you said to me.  Just me sitting here everynight that I don't talk to you making excuses to myself as to why I shouldn't cry and just give up.  Just me at this very moment writing this full of tears as silent gags of regret escape my throat in front of these people I've come to call my friends.  Just me realizing as I am writing this...nothing will ever change.  Just me having even stronger feelings for you despite the conversations I've painfully yet silently endured about mutual association and "just friends".  Just me wanting you to know that I love you and I will always try to be there for you one way or the other friends, more than friends, even if we begin to drift apart and become nothing I respect everything you said and will understand your decisions in the future...I just want to say I'm sorry and I've never felt the need to be so apologetic in my life but it's just me now helping you
worrying you
annoying you
understanding you
respecting you
loving you
wanting you
missing you...
infinitely waiting for you....


Just me fully putting 110% in this all for you...
Just me...dedicating everything I have left to you....
