'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen'

Excitement around "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," the sequel to the enormously successful 2007 movie, has been building steadily since we got our first glimpse of the action in the ad that played during the Super Bowl. Two weeks later the trailer was released, and it looked like director Michael Bay wasn't lying when he promised bigger and badder robots than in the first flick.
Now, to get the fans even more energized, Paramount Pictures has released to us the full list of all the giant robots that will appear in the new movie. Plus we have new photos with first looks at two of the evil Decepticons that will battle the heroic Autobots when the movie hits theaters this summer.



Full list of the robots are Here

The Days of Holy Week

Palm Sunday Maundy Thursday Good Friday Holy Saturday


Holy Week is the last week of Lent, the week immediately preceding Easter Sunday. It is observed in many Christian churches as a time to commemorate and enact the suffering (Passion) and death of Jesus through various observances and services of worship. While some church traditions focus specifically on the events of the last week of Jesus’ life, many of the liturgies symbolize larger themes that marked Jesus’ entire ministry. Observances during this week range from daily liturgical services in churches to informal meetings in homes to participate in a Christian version of the Passover Seder.
In Catholic tradition, the conclusion to the week is called the Easter Triduum (a triduum is a space of three days usually accompanying a church festival or holy days that are devoted to special prayer and observance). Some liturgical traditions, such as Lutherans, simply refer to "The Three Days." The Easter Triduum begins Thursday evening of Holy Week with Eucharist and concludes with evening prayers Easter Sunday.

WHO WILL BE YOUR MVP??


Who is the best player in the NBA?”

Or …

“Who is the MVP?”


OK guys who do you think deserve to be the MVP?

Here's a little backgroud about the three.

Dwyane Wade #3
Guard
Miami Heat
Height: 6-4
Weight: 212
Born: Jan 17, 1982 - Chicago, Illinois
College: Marquette
Draft: 2003 - 1st round (5th pick) by the Miami Heat
Average:
Pts 29.9
Reb 5.0
Ast 7.5

D-Wade is the most dynamic and fun player to watch in basketball. D-Wade has made the pull-back dribble between the legs his signature move. His ability to break down defenses might be unmatched. And with Shaquille O’Neal no longer at his side, Wade receives nearly all of the attention from opposing teams. Name another Heat player that commands a double team.
Of the three players, Wade has the least with which to work. Kobe has Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum, and one of the best benches in basketball. LeBron has Mo Williams and a team of savvy veterans who already have been through some wars with him.

LeBron James #23
Small Forward
Cleveland Cavaliers
Height: 6-8
Weight: 250
Born: Dec 30, 1984 - Akron, Ohio
College: None
Draft: 2003 - 1st round (1st pick) by the Cleveland Cavaliers
Average:
Pts 28.3
Reb 7.7
Ast 7.3
LeBron is the best athlete we have ever seen in the NBA. No one can match his combination of size, speed, strength, athleticism and skill.
As a result, LeBron makes it easy for his teammates to get shots. If you are a spot-up shooter, you should want to make Cleveland your home. LeBron will extend your career by setting you up for wide-open looks.
If you’re a point guard and the defense is pressuring you, just give the ball to LeBron and he becomes your point forward. The Cavs continually put the ball in his hands at the top of the circle and ask him to make a play. On the break he is a runaway train, an instant assist if you pitch the ball ahead to him.

Kobe Bryant #24
Shooting Guard
Los Angeles Lakers
Height: 6-6
Weight: 220
Born: Aug 23, 1978 - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
College: None
Draft: 1996 - 1st round (13th pick) by the Charlotte Hornets
Average:
Pts 27.2
Reb 5.3
Ast 4.9
If you’re talking about basketball assassins, you’re talking about Kobe Bryant. No player is more feared. Poll NBA players about whom they least like to guard, and most of them will probably say Kobe.
Which player is deadliest with the game on the line? Kobe. He not only lives to win, he enjoys demoralizing opponents. That edge is what separates him from LeBron and D-Wade. He’s the guy who kicked sand on your face at the beach.
Kobe almost has a Jordan-like aura among NBA players, and for good reason. He has more offensive skill then anyone in basketball. If Jordan is No. 1, Kobe is 1A. He isn’t Jordan to my generation, but Kobe is tops to the now generation. Believe that.
Kobe actually has more offensive moves than Jordan and shoots the 3-pointer slightly better. And who scored 81 points in a game? Not MJ. Source

So if D-Wade is the most dynamic player, and LeBron is the best teammate, and Kobe is the most ruthless … then who is this season’s MVP?
I leave it to you guys... It's your choice... :)
