Avenged Sevenfold - Sieze The day (Live LBC).


One of the best songs from one of the greatest bands ever! There are lots of bands out there who call themselves musicians and these guys are one of the few who deserve that title.

Syn Gates is one of the best metal guitarists of the decade and he does a great job in this video with one of the best live lead guitar solos I have ever heard.

Jimmy Sullivan (RIP), who has been sadly missed in their latest album Nightmare does a revolution on the drums and vocals. Jimmy (aka The Rev) sets the pace for metal skin bangers.

Matt Sanders (Shadows) shows in his amazing voice that he can feel the meaning of every word of this song. This video shows one of his best live performances in this video screaming crisp, clean vocals with his amazing voice.

Zacky Vengance contributes with the beautiful voice of his acoustic guitar.

Johnny Christ keeps the beat with his dynamic bass.

This amazing song makes you think about all the people you have lost, all the time you've wasted, and the chaos brought amoungst yourself.

Establishing Online Dating Relationships: Safety First



Online dating can be fun. But don’t neglect safety and common sense when you try to hook up with a date. At minimum, take caution in the following areas.

Protect Your Computer

Take care of your equipment and systems before you head out into the Internet dating realm. You need to have a firewall and anti-virus protection for your email and for when you search websites and interact online. At the bare minimum, you may want these two solutions that are offered at no charge to home computer users (i.e. not for commercial use):

Free Firewall Download: ZoneAlarm www.zonelabs.com
Free Anti-Virus Download: AVG Anti-Virus www.grisoft.com

Protect Yourself

Take care of yourself, too, by choosing appropriate dating sites. Seek and choose a reputable online dating service. How? Begin by asking around with friends, neighbors, co-workers and others you may know who have tried online dating, and see which places they recommend. In addition, search “online dating services” and keep a notebook of their URLs or website links, the fees, rules and regulations, complete contact information of each and any other useful information that spikes your interest. Then compare each place. Try only those places where you feel safe. Avoid the others.

So take care. Arm your computer – and yourself- with the correct tools and knowledge!
