Cool Dog Names - Whatcha Gonna Name That Puppy?
Your definition of what is cool really depends on your interests and personality. Naming your pet is the first step toward bonding. Don't pick a name because someone else thinks it is cool. Pick a name that fits your dog's personality as well as your own.
Your dog is your best friend and you will call your dog an average of 25,000 times during his/her life. Imagine giving your dog the wrong name!
Another fact is that many dog owners would like to change the name of their dog after a few months already. Why stress the dog with a new name when you can do it right from the beginning?
Below are some suggestions of cool dog names. But before we start here are a few more tips. Don't use dog names that sound similar to very common words and commands like 'go, stay, sit, eat, come, run' etc. The biggest mistake down owners do is giving the dog a cure name that fits well as long the dog is young and still a little puppy but sounds stupid for an adult dog.
Another not so great idea is to name the dog after people you know. They might not be very pleased with that. Here are some suggestions how you can find a good dog name:
If you like sports:
Name your dog after your favorite team or the city in which they play.
For example:
"Dolphin" is only cool if your dog likes to swim. "Miami" is a very cool name.
Name them after your favorite sports personality. Their last name or nickname is usually a better choice. This of course depends on their name.
The sport itself- Hard to translate into a cool name. Here are a couple:
Rugby
Polo
If you like mythology:
Hercules - for the tough dog
Persephone - great for a mama dog
Athena - for the tough female dog
Zeus - the "king"
Apollo - especially good for blond haired dogs
Helena - Beautiful female
Pandora - Curious female, maybe she is always getting herself into "situations"
Achilles - warrior dog
Odysseus - the "traveling dog"
Diana (Roman) Selene (Greek)- She may love to howl at the moon
Thor- For the "protector"
Aphrodite- loving female
Shiva- The multi-faceted female
Kali- Destructive female
Artemis- Female dog. Protector of women.
Hades - "tough" male
Poseidon- male water dog
Chaos- self-explanatory
Egyptian:
Ramses - "king"
Isis-"queen"
Pharaoh-"king"
Osiris-"king" or possibly a dog that nearly died and lived.
If you like music:
Rock-
Morrison
Van Halen
Ozzy
Country-
Blue
Cash
Banjo
Classical-
Mozart
Beethoven - Might be too over-used
Chopin
Other Genres-
Jazz
Hip Hop
Rap
Folk music
If you're into classic books/literature:
Consider your favorite authors and characters. Here are a few ideas:
Copperfield
Hawthorne
Defoe
Moby - great for big dogs
Gatsby - hound dogs, beagles, all manner of hunting dogs...
Mariner - fits especially well if your dog likes water
Shakespeare

Ogun and the Couch Potato
Everyone knows someone who is literally a couch potato. Their butts are glued to the sofa, and they can be found with a remote control in one hand and a beer in another. They always have excuses as to why they come up short. They never can find a job or keep one. They don't believe in education and there is always someone who is plotting against them, dissuading them from meeting their goals. These people can be thrown into the category of having no ambitions, or personal power. They need Ogun, the orisha of iron and war to come and light a fire under their butts.
Ogun is the mighty warrior. He is the patron of war and works with a machete to clear away paths and to help people overcome obstacles. Ogun is similar to Ares and Hephaestus in Greek mythology and Visvakarma in Hindu mythology. In Candomblé, he is syncretized with Saint George in Brazil. In Santeria, he is syncretized with Saint Peter. Ogun can also be associated with energy, in particularly personal power. In Sanskrit, under the chakra system, Ogun can represent the manipura or the third chakra.
This chakra is located in the area of the solar plexus of the body. The manipura chakra, much like Ogun represents our potential to succeed in life. It is also a symbolization of self-esteem and vitality. People who are very much in touch with Ogun normally have a lot of self-confidence, a sense of self-worth and a great deal of personal power. In a sense, they can make things happen. They never do anything for the approval of others. They know what they want in life, and are supercharged when it comes to overcoming obstacles and hardships. They are survivors and are normally optimistic and enthused about their life choices.
Someone who possesses the qualities of Ogun is Jay Z, a hip-hop performer who created a multi-million dollar empire. People who are Ogun types don't follow trends they create them. People who are Ogun types know how to make money, and they exude power and influence over others. They are incredibly disciplined and never sell themselves short. People who are not Ogun types lack energy, feel insecure, and normally don't trust others. They have goals, but have no idea how to reach them. They tend to attract people who hinder their growth and make them feel weak and unworthy.
These are the people who land jobs and only keep them for a week. They are the people who are actually content sleeping on their mother's sofa, or begging a child for change. Ogun is the deity of power; he incites wars and is most popular for his part in the Haitian revolution. However, Ogun represents the war that we all have to fight inside of us. Everyday is a battle, each day we are fighting against self-doubt, low self-esteem, feelings of inferiority, and unworthiness. We all have wars to fight, in the world and within ourselves, and it all begins with us getting our butts off the couch.

Should We Call Him Jesus Christ Or Yeshua the Messiah?
In English, we call him Jesus. This is a translation from Hebrew and Greek through Latin into English. Jesus Christ is pronounced "hay zeus kris tos", and it is still a translation of Yeshua the Messiah. Why would the name of a Jewish Messiah have the word "Zeus" in it? "Yeshua Ha Mashiach" is how you would have said "Jesus the Messiah" 2,000 years ago!
This is what they called Him face to face back then, and isn't this what He should still be called today? Messiah only means one thing in any language around the world. It stands for the Jewish God in human form making a long awaited, prophesied visit to His people.
Why would we call the Lord God of the universe by a translated name? My name is Peter, but I do not wish to be called Pedro. Or in Hawaii I would be called "Peke".
A British lady used to pronounce my name "Peet-ah". (I kind of liked that!) Who knows how my name would sound in many of the world's languages? Would I be able to recognize my name if pronounced completely different?
When you meet someone, isn't it important to learn their name and pronounce it correctly? All the more important, shouldn't we pronounce the Lord's name properly?
Remember that God's name was never given in the Tanakh (the Old Testament), only titles and terms were given for God. Why should His name be translated through several languages into English here in our day? We go out of our way to pronounce all the other Bible names correctly. Isn't it more important to do the same for God's Name?
There is a major difference between two views, and you can not mix the two:
Is He the Jesus Christ of Rome; the second member of the trinity, the child (Son) of God, the Son the pope promotes, where you can pray to Jesus' co-redeemer Mother Mary and kiss her statue too?
Or is His name Yeshua the Messiah; the One God of the Jews in human form, the Spirit become flesh, the Savior, the Shepard, the Rock, the Father, the I Am? Which view is Biblically correct and accurate? How long will you waiver between these two opinions?
Yeshua is the Name above all names of the King of all kings and the Lord of all lords, the only Name given by which we can be saved!

The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
The most celebrated creative work in all of Greece and one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World the Statue of Zeus at Olympia has created a deep impact on all who have seen it.
Pausanias, a Greek voyager who has written the initial guidebook to olden Greece in 150 AD, explains the statue in vast detail; nevertheless he also writes that reports are far small of the idea made by a sight of the image. To the Greeks the statue of Olympian Zeus was the personified God, and the one who does get an opportunity to see it even once was considered to be unfortunate.
Governing over the Gods from his glorious and dignified throne on the top of Mount Olympus, Zeus could see everything, rewarded superior demeanor, penalized wickedness, and ruled all. He was the spreader of thunder and lightning, rain, and storms, and his weapon was the thunderbolt. He was thought to be the defender of towns, the dwellings, unfamiliar persons and supplicants.
Inside this temple the figure of the highest and ultimate God sat upon a meticulously carved cedar wood throne that was ornamented with legendary sights of inferior Gods and heroes made in gold, ebony, and valuable stones. In his left hand Zeus had a scepter made of a multihued alloy of uncommon metals; coroneted with an eagle's head, it represented his rule over the earth. His absolute right hand sustained a full size statue of Nike, the goddess of triumph, and the bench underneath his feet was held by two remarkable gold lions.
Presiding over the Olympic Games
Zeus controlled the Olympic Games, an enormous Pan-Hellenic celebration that took place only once in every four years. Confined by a sacred truce, athletes from cities all through Greece made a trip to Olympia to try and win in the festival's competitions of power, stamina and ability.
Fate of the Statue of Zeus
At its peak in approximately 5th century BC, the Olympic games started drawing crowds of nearly 40,000 from all around the Greek world: Athens, Sparta, Syracuse, Rhodes, and many other cities. The sculpture of Zeus resided over the games until 393 AD. After that it got close down by the Roman Emperor Theodosius I owing to their pagan relations. The fate of the figure is not known today. Theodosius II prepared the demolition of the temples in 426 AD, and the figure may have been corroded then or been taken off to Constantinople, to be misplaced in the great fire that surrounded that city in 475 AD...

Ancient Greek Tattoos
Are you looking for a great Greek Tattoo? One of the best ways to get an awesome design is to do some research on your own and learning a little about the ancient Greek tattoos is a great way to start.
Ancient Greek tattoos, or "stigmata" as they were called back then, were used in many different forms. They were originally used as a way to mark someone as "belonging" to a particular group or segment of society. For example, they were frequently used as a punishment for criminals. This was a way to inflict pain and mark them as criminals so the rest of the population would be able to identify them.
People were tattooed with a distinct design if they belonged to a certain religious sect. Others marked their slaves with unique designs, a branding used as a form of ownership. Ancient Greek tattoos were also used as a form of communication amongst spies, a way to show their rank and their roll in the organization.
Tattoos gradually became more of a form of self-expression. Early designs included the Greek cross, a cross with four equal arms that eventually became the "+" sign in mathematics. The architectural design border of the Greek key became popular and were used as wristbands, armbands, and ankle bands. This design is now commonly known as a sign of the circle of life.
A fun form of tattooing was an expression of phrases using their alphabet symbols. A popular phrase still used today is "Pistis, elpis, agape" which means "Faith, hope, love". One of the most spectacular and extravagant forms of expression was the use of the gods, goddesses, and stories of Greek Mythology. Still ever popular, Greek mythology designs make the most stunning tattoos around.
Ancient Greek Tattoos are still widely used in today's designs. Finding the right Greek tattoo specific to you and your personality can take a little work on your behalf.
About 25% of people who get tattoos are not happy with the outcome. Don't let that happen to you. Research Ancient Greek Tattoos, download designs that you like, and print them out to view.
It's better to have your design idea in your hand when you walk into the parlor than to try and figure it out once you're there. To get more design ideas and awesome printable designs visit http://www.squidoo.com/Greek-Tattoo.
