The list
Have you ever asked the question, what defines me as a human being? Question the very essence of the soul? What moral code do you stand by, if any at all? What makes up your life? What, am I here for? How do I disperse my time? What's important to me? These are all question I end up asking myself from time to time, just to see if I can answer them for my own self satisfaction. I tend to want a payoff before my seeds are ready to bloom. So I made a list of fault's to correct. An improvement list, if you want to put a name behind it. Things that are right and the things that need correction. Make little improvements here and there, small steps at a time, then a progressive motion forward. Trying to strive to live up to expectations put on me willingly, by my Lord and Savior and by my family. This list is a stepping stone to greatness and tranquility spiritually, physically, and mentally. Also improving esteem and self worth, and healthy living. A means to becoming proactive.

Disney buys star wars?
New "Star Wars" movies coming, first in 2015
Deal to buy LucasFilm is half cash, half stock
Will lower Disney EPS in fiscal '13, '14
By Lisa Richwine and Ronald Grover
LOS ANGELES, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co agreed to buy filmmaker George Lucas's Lucasfilm Ltd and its "Star Wars" franchise for $4.05 billion in cash and stock, a b lockbuster deal that includes the surprise promise of a new film in the series in 2015.
Disney Chief Executive Bob Iger told analysts on Tuesday that the plan is to release a new movie in the series every two to three years thereafter. The last "Star Wars" picture was "Revenge of the Sith" in 2005, and Lucas has in the past denied any plans for more.
Lucas, a Hollywood icon known for exercising control over the most minute details of the fictional universe he created, will remain as a creative consultant on the new films.
"It's now time for me to pass 'Star Wars' on to a new generation of filmmakers," he said in a statement. Lucas will become the second-largest individual holder of Disney shares, with a 2.2 percent stake.
Disney will pay about half the purchase price in cash and issue about 40 million shares at closing.
