"Culture is the heritage of us all. some may be more interested than others in the treasures of the past, but no one can fail to take a pride in his country's participation in the story of mankind, as represented in carvings, sculpture, music, paintings and the other arts. And there is a personal commitment to this, for no man can really say he is alone: we are all joined through our identity, with the cultures which are part of the mainstream of life"
- Simon Kapwepwe, Zambian Independence Freedom Fighter

"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm" - Winston Churchill

"Try to be the rainbow in someone else's cloud" - Maya Angelou

"Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinion drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition" - Steve Jobs

NBA Finals Series Is Shaping Up Well :)

The second game of the Lakers-Celtics Final has really set this up to be a great series! When asked the question, the Celtics came up with the answer this time.  Great game, and it went all the way down to the wire.  Luckily even though the Lakers came back and there were only a few points separating the teams at the end of the fourth, timeouts and intentional fouling did not break up the final moments too badly and we were spared watching such degradation for the most part.  Ray Allen breaking that 3-pointer record was impressive to watch. Can't believe he had such poise to streak while away.  So was Kobe's fake play to score 2 points that used an unnatural amount of hang time to execute. That's what champions do, come back from defeat stronger and that is why the Celtics deserve to be in the Final. Can't wait for the game on Tuesday with the Lakers at Boston for the first time. Will they do the same over there? :)

Kobe's thoughts on the loss were of course true to form - curt, to the point, aloof.  However, you can tell that he is keeping everything in perspective and is ready to whip his team into shape for the Game 3.

Here is a video of Allen's stellar 3-pointers:
