Personality

Some of us live in a fairly steady state on the energy/tension scale, and we think this is our personality, character, identity, fate, or “just the way life is” and what we have to struggle with, and we develop a philosophy of life that features the kinds of Certainties that appear at that place on the scale.

Others of us have big swings in energy and tension, and we’re never quite sure who we really are, and we develop a philosophy of life that features Change and how you can never be too sure of anything.
Who we all are is the potential for all of it depending on our energy/tension state. We all have the potential to live in peace, love, and joy.
The energy/tension state is what determines our mood and our attitude, which is what determines our every thought and feeling, which is what determines our every speech and action. And everything in the fields of recovery and rehabilitation and healing, and everything in the fields of clinical psychology and criminal law and ethics and pastoral care that works, works because it raises energy and/or lowers tension. Seeing this gives us a clear focus on how to proceed.

3wsa Spore to hit Nintendo this fall_382

Electronic Arts announced Monday that its Spore Hero for the Wii game console and Spore Hero Arena for the Nintendo DS handheld will reach store shelves in the U.S. on October 6 and international outlets on October 9.

Spore Hero Arena for the Nintendo DS

The popular Spore game was originally available only on the PC and Mac. Last September, EA unveiled Spore and another variation, Spore Creatures, for the Nintendo DS. In May, EA announced a fall release for the Nintendo versions of Spore Hero and Spore Hero Arena but hadn’t revealed a specific date.

Spore to hit Nintendo this fall

Nintendo gamers anxious to grow Spores will find relief in October.

“Players’ heroes take center stage as both games, distinctly tailor-made for its Nintendo platform, infuse creativity, combat and adventure to create a unique gameplay experience on the Wii and Nintendo DS,” said Lucy Bradshaw, vice president of Maxis, a subsidiary of EA

In Spore Hero, players can transform into heroic alien creatures on a mission to save their home worlds from certain destruction. By battling evil forces, solving puzzles, and collecting clues, heroes evolve over time. And using the Spore Creature Creator, gamers can build their heroes with assorted alien body parts.

“I am going to meet a diplomat of a neighbouring country to seek assurances of the safety of Sarath Fonseka,” Ganeshan said, in an apparent reference to India.

The C.O.L.B.E.R.T. treadmill and mission patch. The patch sold out shortly after going on sale.

NASA flight rules prohibited engineers from cycling the valve under supercold cryogenic conditions out of a concern about a possibly unknown problem that could cause it to fail in the closed position. In that case, it would be difficult to drain the tank after a delay. As a result, launch was tentatively rescheduled for early Friday.

During a Mission Management Team meeting Friday, a waiver was processed that would have allowed engineers to cycle the valve twice during fueling, if required, to confirm closing. In addition, engineers developed plans to use alternate cues to verify the valve’s position.

Discovery’s initial launch try early Tuesday was called off due to stormy weather near the launch pad. A second attempt was called off during fueling Tuesday night for a Wednesday morning launch when one of two hydrogen fill-and-drain valves in the shuttle’s engine compartment failed to indicate it was closed.

Along with replacing a 1,800-pound ammonia coolant tank in the station’s main power truss during their first two spacewalks, Discovery’s crew will deliver two sophisticated science racks, an experiment sample freezer, a new air revitalization rack, a crew sleep station, and a treadmill named after comedian Stephen Colbert.

Space shuttle Discovery refueled for launch

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla.–Running four days late, the shuttle Discovery was refueled for launch late Friday for a 13-day mission to deliver more than 7.5 tons of supplies and equipment to the International Space Station.

As it turned out, those plans were not needed. The valve and the position indicator both worked normally.

The “Combined Operational Load Bearing External Resistance Treadmill,” or COLBERT, received its name after the comedian launched a successful tongue-in-cheek write-in campaign to name a final station module in his honor. NASA managers declined, naming the new module Tranquility instead, but renamed the treadmill after Colbert.

An 8-inch liquid hydrogen valve blamed for back-to-back launch delays earlier this week worked normally during fueling Friday and engineers did not have to exercise a waiver that would have permitted additional troubleshooting.

Along with delivering needed supplies and equipment, Stott will replace space station flight engineer Timothy Kopra, launched to the lab complex in July and returning to Earth in Stott’s place.

During tests Wednesday night, after Discovery’s tank was drained, the valve and its position indicator both worked normally, cycling open and closed five times at ambient temperatures. A pressure decay test also indicated the valve closed normally.

With forecasters predicting a 60 percent chance of good weather, Discovery was scheduled for liftoff at 11:59 p.m. EDT.

All 435 seats in the House of Representatives are up for grabs in November, along with a third of the Senate’s 100 seats.

White House advisers hit the talk show circuit Sunday insisting the Obama administration was not seeking to turn over a new leaf by bringing Plouffe back in.

Observers will watch Obama’s speech for signs that he is trimming his ambitions, or tacking to the political center to chase independent voters dismayed by the slow pace of the change he promised.

The defeat took Democrats below the magic 60-seat barrier needed to thwart Republican Senate blocking tactics in the Senate — leaving Obama’s chances of passing his ambitious agenda in serious doubt.

“‘No’ doesn’t create a job. ‘No’ doesn’t create health care insurance for anyone… ‘No’ doesn’t help a senior citizen with their prescription drug coverage. It’s time to begin to say ‘yes’ to move the country forward,” Menendez told ABC television’s “This Week” program.

The State of the Union address, beamed simultaneously on US television networks and cable news stations, offers a president his best annual chance to bypass the media and speak directly to Americans.

Republicans have no incentive to cooperate, seeing their win in Massachusetts as vindication of their total opposition to Obama’s health care plan and broader agenda.

With unemployment at 10 percent, Obama’s bond with the US public is frayed, and he is losing his hold on crucial independent voters.

Brookings Institution scholar Thomas Mann said Obama must Wednesday offer a spirited defense of his health reform plan, blame Republicans for the economic blight he inherited and say how he will ease the pain.

“He needs to be aggressive with the financial community and his unified, ideological Republican opposition, and indicate clearly what he is prepared to fight for and lose reelection for.”

Washington is reverberating from the shock Republican victory in late liberal lion Edward Kennedy’s Senate seat last week, which traumatized Democrats and is testing ties between Obama and his own party in Congress.

On Friday, in a possible preview of next week’s address, he posed as a champion of the working man, vowing an all-out fight to create jobs — though his policy options for doing so seem limited.

So Obama is repeatedly slamming Wall Street, and seeking to insulate himself from popular rage over government bailouts of the finance sector as it wallows in bloated bonus payments.

“So long as I have the privilege of serving as your president, I’ll never stop fighting for you,” he told an Ohio town-hall meeting.

He has already acknowledged American anger and frustration over recovery benefits failing to trickle down to the middle class while banks and finance firms are again piling up huge profits.

“No, we’re not hitting a reset button,ugg usa,” White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett told NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
