If you are a strain within your back while lifting, maybe you are carrying it out wrong.
Strengthening your own muscles is really as essential to healing from the back injury as it is to preventing future injury.

Before you treat your lower back pain, it is vital that you view your doctor to find out what is causing it. The type of treatment that can provided for you personally back mostly depends on what the cause of your back discomfort is. For example, when it is arthritis, you might have to visit a chiropractor.
Back aches could cause crippling pain, and anti-inflammatory medication is your best option if you’re going through the over the counter route. Tylenol along with other medicines do well on relieving pain, but choose something containing mostly ibuprofen. This anti-inflammatory drug will help to relieve back pain much better than other meds you can take.
A number of people who do not sleep on a regular schedule experience back problems, so make an effort to get no less than seven hours of sleep per night on a regular schedule. Staying awake as well as on the feet for prolonged hours puts a lot of stress on your back and can ultimately result in moderate to severe pain. Sleeping can help decrease this.

The ideas from the article above can help anyone reclaim their lives and rid themselves in the agony of lower back pain.

In general the proposal is an insertion of steel modules to feature a futuristic character. Repeatable steel module frame are designed to fulfill a flexible construction (in-situ / prefab). These steel modules form PC rooms and spectators corridor on the mezzanine level. The nature of the skeleton-like module makes space for service ducting; provides possibility to create futuristic and industrial features by exposing services like LAN cable, electrical cable and aircond.
Catwalks are the mezzanine floor main linkage. Light steel catwalk structure wrapping existing columns and wall providing camouflage for unwanted visual disturbance. Part of the steel module and catwalk will be enveloped with selected finishing.
Main lounge and staff rooms at the entrance hall will be using masonry construction together with steel structure (cantilevered lounge room).
01) Installation of light steel modules and lounge rooms.
02) Audio, control and broadcasters pits are located at both corners. Steel catwalk linking all the installed elements.
03) Proposed secondary openings / entrance. Ceiling space frame for lightings and audio system.
The steel modules are placed around the stage / arena creating free standing spectators area that surrounds the stage. Centralized ducting is placed underneath the steel module for flexible future maintenance. The visible ducting is part of the design feature. Light space frame on the ceiling will be supporting selected lighting and audio system as well as the event banners.

One thing we are doing different this holiday season is revamping how we buy presents for the kids. Gone are the days where we purchase endless toys the boys won’t play with or use for longer than 2 hours. In our house Christmas is about loving each other and giving gifts that actually mean something. That’s why this year we chose I-SEE-ME personalized gifts for kids!
I was lucky enough to get not one but two different place-mats for Trace that were personalized. The first My very own personalized play-mat with animals and alphabet which Monkey just loved. His name in bold letters across the middle. He thought it was very cool.
The second was the Cars and Vehicles place-mat of friends. Trace saw this one and squealed with delight. The little kid on the right side he said was him. Then he proceeded to pick out all his friends on the mat while he ate supper.
The third gift we received was the My Very Own Personalized Coloring and Activity book. A huge owl adorns the front and will capture your kids imagination and play. Monkey loved it! He loved seeing the dedication written inside to him from his mom and dad (us) and his big brother Jake. He loved seeing his name throughout the book with each different activity.
Disclosure: I received no monetary compensation for this post. All opinions are 100% my own and come from my interaction with the products mentioned above. Thanks for reading.
I'd love my very merry chistmas!
I really like the My Very Own Name Colouring and Activity book, although the fairytail one looks sweet too.
I like the one with the Owl or the Fairy Tales.
Love what you received and their selection!
When my kids were little you could order books with their names inserted. Toys have come a long way since then! Nice give-a-way for parents.

I suppose I should surely call myself with confidence, a writer.
Just because of the way I love words, the way God made me to love words.
I wake up with new plans and consider a bullet list Thanksgiving blog.
This little garland left unhung and it was cute in Target, but I’m not sure if it was right for any place in my home. I’ll let it lay, it can go undone.
Again, I’m thinking of the list, the thankful today list. I could fill several pages and yet, not include it all.
Instead, I love the idea of three, so three it shall be.
Thank you, God, you are patient and unconditionally present and tolerant of me and you help others also to be.
Thank you for the way you got me here, to a place of morning sunshine landing on my succulents as I disciplined myself to know you more in the years before and how now, like today it’s an unexplainable joy, my morning space I rush towards in my morning return.
Thank you, God, for your word. When I said to myself I want to know more about providence, you sent me straight to Job, Job who cried out to the God who “molded me like clay” and found himself in a place I only know as well but on a much smaller scale, saying I trust you God, I do because you and only you know me so well.
Lists and exchanges of thanks should surely rule the day.
For me, I prayed I’d be an encourager that those around me would know my love, would surely see my love in a grander more consistent way, only possible if I lean into and stay leaning into You.
Happy Thanksgiving my readers who comment just when I need it, unbeknownst to you, perhaps.
That’s God who nudged you towards encouraging me.
Thank you for all you’ve brought me, brought me through to be used to honor you!

If you blink you'll miss it. Don't let the looks of this Houma spot fool you.
The two-woman cooking team starts at 5 in the morning preparing fresh, authentic Mexican dishes and usually don't clock out till 11 at night.
A handful of day laborers sat on patio furniture during lunchtime Wednesday waiting for oversized plates of food at the restaurant..
“Their enchiladas are awesome,” said Tina Roddy, a stylist that works at Sonny's Angels Barbershop next door.
This restaurant has been serving up authentic Mexican food since 1962 and has four locations, two in the Morgan City area, and the others in New Iberia and Lafayette.
Michael Izaguirre from the Bayou Vista location said a lot of people rave about the fajitas and are also fans of the chili-n-cheese burrito and Burrito Supreme.
“People also tell us how good our Margaritas are,” he said.
With locations in Houma, Thibodaux, Morgan City and Florida, this restaurant has established itself as a popular Mexican spot for locals.
Whether you are looking for some tasty nachos or a sampling of items in the form of the El Paso Favorita, El Paso has a large menu offering tons of choices.
This restaurant offers reasonably priced entr�es that are freshly prepared to order in the kitchen located a stone's throw from your table inside the Wag-A-Pak Truck Stop and Casino on the outskirts of town.
One of the tastier items the grill serves up is its Carna Asada.
Being known for serving the region's largest burrito, the 5-pound Burrito La Palma, is just the start for this restaurant that first opened its doors in June 2005.
Owner Raudel Torres touts the motto, “Taste the Freshness” when describing his food to others. Fresh ingriedants and a self-serve chip and salsa bar are a few of the things that have made this a favorite stop for locals.
If you are in the mood for something different, you might want to check out this restaurant in Larose.
What sets this place apart from others is their lunch buffet, which costs $8.50 and is served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Mondays through Sundays. The only day the buffet isn't offered is Saturdays. One of the more popular menu items is the fajitas for one, two or the entire family.

Without any doubt, Frances Simpson would be the most 'quoted' cat fancier and judge from the first 60 years of the Cat Fancy.
She was a most prolific and talented writer. She demonstrated an excellent grasp of the social mores and tact required to successfully navigate the highly charged political environment of such an intensely popular hobby, about which, she was personally and heavily engaged in promoting.
As a feline historian, Ms. Simpson was totally without parallel.
As a feline historian who personally witnessed the first Crystal Palace Show through the eyes of a 14 year old, her own later efforts in recording the beginnings of the early cat fancy, the clubs, the breeds, the merits of the individual cats and the contribution of respective breeders or exhibitors; was, and is still today, an achievement totally without parallel.
Many of her contemporaries within the Fancy were also writers, journalists and authors, and although fellow fanciers and judges such as Charles H. Lane, T.J. Ambrose, Dorothy B. Champion and C.A. House, all produced historical works which have added and enlarged our knowledge base, the seminal works of Frances Simpson, particularly Our Cats and All About Them (1902), followed swiftly by The Book of The Cat (1903), published by Cassell & Co., remain at the pinnacle of feline historical references.
In much the same way that The Poultry Book (1903) was considered to be Harrison Weir's 'Magnum Opus', The Book of The Cat was similarly the 'Magnum Opus' of the feline world, an in-depth and well researched window into the new and emerging world of the cat fancy.
Added to this already commanding skill-set, Frances was also an effective Show Manager, a respected Judge and mentor of new judges, a busy Club Secretary (of a number of clubs) and the hard-working promoter of the Blue Persian. In fact, one of her greatest contributions to the fancy, other than as a judge and historian, was her unequalled passion for the Blue Persian, which saw this variety rise from relative obscurity to one that commanded international recognition and respect. It was this firm foundation and then strong pillar, from and upon which, the Persian breed as a whole took flight.
In many respects, she was indeed the 'grand matron' of the fancy, often steering its course from the sidelines and by setting an example for others to follow. Her influence can be seen in almost every facet of breeding, exhibiting, judging and the recording of feline history. If any one hand was at the tiller of the ship called 'cat fancy', it was very likely to have been hers above all others, and most often achieved with extreme subtlety.

← JAKE JOHNSON. Facebook let corporate partners read users’ private messages.
Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad’s election win in May was a dramatic shock.
But since taking power the ruling Pakatan Harapan (Coalition of Hope) consortium has proved less than decisive. An inchoate alliance of sectional parties, not a coherent political force with a unified outlook and clear agenda, Pakatan Harapan (PH) is exasperating many of its most devoted supporters.
It needs to do more to capitalize on the election victory, which saw Mahathir and his allies defeat Prime Minister Najib Razak and take power from a coalition led by the United Malays National Organization (UMNO), the country’s dominant party since independence in 1957 and bastion of the majority ethnic Malay population.
Perhaps trial-and-error gradualism rather than impetuous doctrinaire activism makes sense in these unprecedented circumstances. But PH’s long-term strategic course remains vague. It is feeling its way, often uncertainly. As it does, speculation continues about the timing and implications of the political succession from the 93-year-old nationalist Mahathir to the resurrected and perhaps impatient “soft Islamist” Anwar Ibrahim. Much is unclear.
Beyond these “personality issues,” PH faces deeper challenges. It has comfortably won three by-elections that have occurred since May — including one that saw Anwar Ibrahim return to parliament and close to grasping the top job.
But its old adversaries, who have been lying low since losing power, are beginning to flex their muscles. To mark United Nations Human Rights Day in early December a now-ragged UMNO and the ever more assertive Islamist party PAS joined forces in the name of the prerogatives of ethnic Malays and other indigenous peoples (62% of the population) and Islamic supremacy. They organized a mass street demonstration against PH plans to ratify ICERD, the U.N. Charter on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. Even though PH had already deferred the proposals indefinitely in a rush of prudence, tens of thousands gathered for the protest in Kuala Lumpur.
For the moment, PH enjoys some breathing space. It is the beneficiary of UMNO’s post-election implosion. Many UMNO elected representatives, state and federal, are defecting, some to PH parties. Virtually the entire UMNO leadership and party structure in the Borneo state of Sabah — until recently crucial in ensuring UMNO/BN’s numerical majority in parliament — has walked away.
To growing discontent, the continuing presence in the party of both former Prime Minister Najib and his successor as UMNO head Ahmad Zahid Hamidi hangs heavy over UMNO. Both men are under a variety of criminal breach of trust indictments over their alleged roles in the financial scandals that marked the former government.
There are calls for an emergency general meeting and new party elections. Meanwhile, many unhappy UMNO members, seeing their party flounder, are gravitating toward the Islamist party PAS. As they do, the balance between the two Malay parties, long bitter rivals drawn into an uneasy entente by Najib, is shifting.
Once holding the whip hand and the reins of government power, UMNO is increasingly reduced, as in the December mass rally, to serving as PAS’s subordinate adjunct. As this process proceeds, some overdue clarification and realignment of national political forces is occurring.
But the longer-term implications of this tendency are toward the polarization of Malaysian society and politics. In prospect is a brutal contest between the fragmented forces of social democratic pluralism, now awkwardly huddling together within PH, and the religiously driven Malay ethno-sectarians, now in an alliance where the remains of the old UMNO are increasingly being made the willing and even desperate instrument of PAS with its agenda of making Malaysia an explicitly Islamic state operating under shari’ah law.
The PH government arose from “bottom-up mobilization,” on a steadily growing wave of civil society activism, not coherent opposition party strength; its adversaries led by PAS and a variety of Islamist NGOs and political pressure groups are now seeking to bring down the government by recourse to far more ominous and intimidatory forms of the same strategy. They seek to show that PH cannot govern, and that they can deny it the opportunity and the authority to do so.
Despite the PH retreat, the issue will not go away. The struggle over ICERD is a proxy for a contest about profound divisions in Malaysian society. At issue is not simply whether acceding to ICERD would impugn Malaysian national and legal sovereignty. To its opponents ICERD is fundamentally at odds with what they see as the key doctrinal foundations of the Malaysian state: Malay political ascendancy (ketuanan Melayu), Malay royal power, and the supremacy of Islam.
They hold that these tenets are entrenched in perpetuity within the “social contract” by which the independence Federal Constitution of 1957, later the Malaysian Constitution of 1963, was negotiated. They have so persuaded many Malaysians, including most conventional Malay voters. But this notion was artfully confected by the UMNO ideologue Abdullah Ahmad in 1986 and thereafter unilaterally retrofitted into official ideas of the Constitution. This idea of Malay ascendancy as a foundation of the nation’s constitution is a brazen hoax.
In the wake of the human rights rally, serious thinkers within PH are wondering how to assuage the popular Malay anxiety, and manage the risk that disaffection could be mobilized against the new government and destroy it. What new benefits, they wonder, must be provided to the lowest 40 percent of the population, the majority of them Malays, to win their trust.
But, ever since independence in 1957 and the ensuing upheavals of 1969, it is not simply the experience and further anticipation of economic marginalization that now motivate many Malays’ fear of PH and its plans. In addition to providing material benefits, PH must persuade them that they are an integral part of its view of the nation.
That will require PH strategists not just to educate them about the Malay ascendancy hoax that has been concocted to mobilize their anxieties and win their bulk political support on narrowly ethno-sectarian grounds. The PH thinkers must also craft a sustainable and, constitutionally, securely grounded notion of the Malaysian nation of today. There must be an attainable and convincing national agenda, and a coherent package of policies for its realization. Nothing less. The future of PH rests on its ability to do so.

Not too long ago we all were treated to some of the first gameplay for Inner Chains and we were able to see just how weird the world that Telepaths' Tree has built for the game. It was rather lackluster and such as it was still using a lot of placeholder animations and audio just so they could show things off. Now we get to see what happens when IMGN.PRO commissions a true gameplay video for Inner Chains and we get a better look at just how the game should run when all is said and done. Or at least how it is running currently as there is still no date when we will get to experience it for ourselves on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. At least it is something for now.
As I mentioned before, Inner Chains originally looked more or less like a creepy walking simulator through an extremely messed up world. It looks like that has all been ditched as this new trailer throws us right into the middle of the action and to see how crazy some of the combat could be; all depending on how we play. We also have a much better look at the weird way that the human life has evolved on this weird world as they are all more biomechanical than before when they looked like emaciated husks of men. That is at least how they all looked before we had a better description for Inner Chains and now this new gameplay video to look at. Have a look and be the judge again.
I will say that Inner Chains is starting to look a lot more like a generic fast-paced FPS title than what we had before. At least based off of all of this here. If Telepaths' Tree blends the two perfectly, it looks like it could be one of those games that blows everyone's minds between the horror and fast pace shooting. Generally not the best of combinations, but we'll just have to wait and see how Inner Chains pans out now won't we? Hopefully not too much longer and hopefully we'll get a release date soon seeing as of this writing there is still nothing even etched in sandstone.
Does all of this put Inner Chains on your radar now or will you still need more to convince you to give it the time of day? Do you think that the game will be all action and the first showing was just a level walk-through or will there be some kind of blending between it all? How weird do you think the weapons will get in the game or have we seen the tip of the top for them all? Let us know down in the comments and discuss. As we learn more for Inner Chains, we will be here to educate you just the same. With any luck this won't be far off, but none the less, stay right here on the site so you are up to date on every little bit.

Basic skincare routine for healthy skin .
Around a year back, I had a really bad cystic acne that just made me look horrible, and even when they cleared up I’d be left with the red marks and scars . Everyday a new acne would pop up, so I decided to go see a doctor – was prescribed an antibiotics for 2 weeks and topical ointments for day and night application. And a few months down the line the difference was dramatic. No more painful spots covering the side of my face. I couldn’t believe I hadn’t done it sooner!
I will here share with you everyday skin care routine to maintain a healthy and clear skin. The best part? No need to buy expensive products. Use what you have been using -what suits you..
Cleansing: Clean skin is happy skin! So, always cleanse your face after you wake up and before you go to bed to help get rid of any excess dirt, oil and makeup.Apply a gentle cleanser with your fingertips or a cleansing brush. To make sure your face is totally clean and clear, remove your makeup first, then wash your face with your cleanser. I use ClarisonicMia2 cleansing brush with Clinique sonic facial soap– it works wonder on my face. Don’t scrub your face. Rinse with plenty of lukewarm water, then pat dry. Rinsing your face with cold water won’t tighten your pores. And using hot water, though it may feel good, can dehydrate skin -making it dry.
Toning: After cleansing, apply an alcohol free toner with a cotton ball all over your face . Toner helps in balancing your skin and minimizes the appearance of pores. You can also apply a home-made toner on your face, such as cucumber juice and rose water, which helps maintain the pH balance.
Moisturizing: Hydrating your skin is an important step in maintaining the overall health of your face regardless of your skin type .Apply a good moisturizer twice daily.
At night repeat the cleansing, toning process and apply a good Night cream – goal is to repair damage from the day’s pollution, sun and stress, as well as to hydrate since you lose more water from your skin during sleep.
Face Mask: Facial mask, one of the easiest ways to get healthy and supple skin within a few minutes. Face mask can help you to get – clearer skin and more refined pores , evens skin tone , fresher looking skin and many more benefits . You can use a face mask once a week, or you can use it more then that depending on your skin and your skin care concerns .
Masks are applied to cleansed face for 10 to 15 minutes, although the duration can be shorter or longer; some hydrating masks can also be used as an intensive overnight treatment.
Always clean your face before and after workouts .
Use a clean cloth every time you dry your face to prevent the spread of bacteria .
Apply products to your face in a soft, circular pattern starting from your neck and slowly moving upward .
Use products religiously and don’t change beauty products too frequently .

SmartRV will have the full range of motorhomes from its exclusive German portfolio on display, which includes value brand Carado, popular Bürstner, and premium HYMER motorhomes imported directly from world-renowned manufacturer Erwin Hymer Group.
For the first time at the Covi SuperShow, SmartRV will display the Bürstner Ixeo I 729 and Ixeo I 736 models, which arrived in New Zealand last year.
They have proved popular with Kiwi motorhomers, thanks to their seamless integrated design (where the cab and motorhome body are designed as one) and clever interior layouts. They also offer a range of top quality elements as standard, such as Thermo Floor, a double floor with no interior steps, a wood-free body with XPS insulation, aluminium windows, extra-large entrance door and 1.98m headroom.
The Ixeo I interior is also well-suited to the Kiwi lifestyle as it features Bürstner’s innovative ‘Wohnfühlen’ design, which translates as ‘wellbeing’ or ‘comfortable living’. Features include use of softer natural hues in premium long-wearing fabrics, soft close drawers, fold down kitchen storage, scratch-resistant worktops, premium fittings, LED night lighting and additional USB ports.
Don’t miss the chance to see the Bürstner Ixeo I motorhomes up close, along with approximately 15 other RVs from SmartRV. There will also be special ‘Covi Show Only’ offers on selected SmartRV vehicles over the three days.

From the Midwest Book Review to The Irish Times (Dublin), critics have praised A Woman Walked into the Bar, Linda Heuring’s recent collection of fifteen short stories. This collection is her most recent achievement in a literary career with recognition on two continents.
Ebenezer has a plane to catch and winds up at a Caribbean resort for the generously-figured. Marva is trapped by a pie safe at the bottom of her basement stairs. Mister Fisher hopes to cash in on his momma’s dog’s pedigree. Henry’s wife goes missing. Derwin gets blown up by bug foggers. Roger’s morning commute on the Metra takes him two stops closer to a confrontation. These are just a few of the characters in Linda H. Heuring’s 15-story collection, A Woman Walked into the Bar. The characters in these stories worm their way into your psyche. They don’t always do the right (or legal) thing, but they act for the right reasons.
Heuring, who lives in suburban Chicago, is a short story writer known for her character-driven narratives and her penchant for the overheard phrase. Her short fiction has appeared in Crack the Spine, Crannog (Ireland), Rosebud, Kestrel, Alabama Literary Review, Broad River Review, and Dos Passos Review, among other publications. She has been awarded the Fish International Short Story Prize (Ireland), the Rash Award in Fiction, and was shortlisted for the Bridport Prize (UK) among other honors.
A graduate of DePauw University majoring in English composition, Heuring has been a journalist, newspaper editor, marketing executive, and public relations firm owner. She has been writing full-time for the past 16 years.
— Clem Cairns, publisher at Fish Publishing, County Cork, Ireland.
New Pages named A Woman Walked into the Bar an Editor’s Pick for new books from university and independent presses.

PAR’THA EXPANSE – After enduring a second encounter with the robots from the Consortium, the crew of the USS Atlantis began a much-needed shore leave, recuperating from the previous mission and preparing for the challenges ahead.
While many of the crew welcomed the leave and the chance to relax, the medical staff endured long hours to ensure annual medical checks were up to date, having been postponed for too long. As always, not everyone on the ship was eager to attend these seasonal appointments, so Doctor Cattan and her new staff member Ensign Kecskemeti had to try hard to make sure everyone attended.
In the meantime, Ensign Knight and Lieutenant Commander Williams used most of their spare time to conduct a thorough investigation into what appeared to be a possible new war front between the great Caraadian houses and the Valkarians, with one party building up a large fleet to punch through the lines and inflict massive damage on the industry and civilian grounds of the other.
On a more cheerful note, a rumor began spreading that Captain Brell would soon be performing his first wedding ceremony. Lieutenant Junior Grade Serala seems to be the lucky lady but who her future spouse will be is still part of a large debate. Bookkeeper Zogi said the majority of the crew was putting its latinum on Lieutenant Raga, although some reports suggested the hero of the past few months had displayed sadness for a few days.
Flying on the wings of good news was Marine Captain McKnight, who was found to be very optimistic. With a new training program finished, the Atlantis may be one step closer to having a few fighter wings in its shuttle bay soon. For now, the Marines are training in a simulator, but that could well be the final step towards actually converting a hanger to hold a small group of fighters, adding to the ships defensive capabilities – something that many consider vital so close to a war zone.
On the receiving end of a tumultuous time, danger seemed to find the same ship over and over – a fact which did not seem to escape the new crew either.
“It must be nearly over by now,” said Doctor Kecskemeti, echoing the sentiments of the crew at large.
There is a lingering hope that a period of respite will be found by the ship, although most people know that probably won’t happen. With a fit and well-rested crew, the Atlantis is ready for its next adventure.

You can read our publication “Holiday Arran” online by clicking here or on the image below.
It will not open in and Ipad or Iphone as they do not operate Adobe Flash Player.
If you are thinking of an ideal, get-away-from-it-all holiday, short break or even a long weekend on the west coast of Scotland, then look no further the Isle of Arran has it all.
Action-breaks, climbing, sailing, fishing, golfing, hill-walking or simply relaxing in peaceful bliss “ everyone is catered for.
Spectacular ‘Highland’ style scenery amid misty hills and glens, lovely ‘Lowland’ type moorland and lush pasture where wildlife abounds “ all are neatly packaged within the most accessible of all the Scottish islands.
Rich in history, yet modern in outlook, Arran enjoys all-year round short ferry links with Ayrshire and Scotland’s Central Belt â€“ less than one hour’s drive from Glasgow, and less than one hour’s sail from the Firth of Clyde port of Ardrossan.
This island paradise is also close to the golfing Meccas of Troon and Turnberry and there is a shorter 30 minute sea crossing to the Kintyre coast and the excellent Argyll links golf courses such as Machrihanish ‘ but with Arran boasting seven wonderfully scenic courses within its 20-mile length, golfers may never want to leave.
Arran is a condensed version of the best that Scotland has to offer; golf courses, castles, distillery, museums, outdoor activities and gourmet food. It is the seventh largest Scottish island nestled in the Firth of Clyde between Ayrshire and Kintyre.
Have you played Arran yet?
The Isle of Arran boasts the greatest number of golf courses per population in the world and has become known for its challenging but fair courses that are all open to non members. The island’s seven picturesque courses reflect the beauty and diversity of the whole island and, with an island population of around 4,700, there is one course to every 671 islanders.
You would not be surprised then, to see the fairways and greens filled every summer with golf enthusiasts from around the world. And, outwith the regular tourist season, every club boasts a healthy membership.
Most people’s first view of Arran is the east coast with its towering mountains rising up towards the north.
The east coast of Arran is home to the three bigger villages on the island, Brodick, Lamlash and Whiting Bay. Brodick is usually the first port of call as the car ferry MV Caledonian Isles from Ardrossan docks here. Sailing into Brodick Bay you are greeted by one of the most beautiful views of Arran; the long sandy beach sweeping up towards Goatfell, and the impressive sandstone bricks of Brodick castle.
The modern village of Brodick has grown and expanded over the years. Arran’s first pier was built here in 1872 and the Golf Club celebrated its Centenary in 1997. Brodick Hall was opened in 1895 with money raised by the Brodick Public Hall Company Limited. Generations of visitors and locals cherish fond memories of that old hall which is still the venue for concerts and dances and community activities, with the added bonus of the new library.
LAMLASH is just three miles south of the ferry terminal at Brodick.
The village is situated in a sheltered bay protected from the elements by the Holy Island rising a thousand feet out of the sea. In 1263 before the Battle of Largs, the Norse king Haakon anchored his fleet in Lamlash Bay. On the Holy Island the cave of Saint Molaise, who lived and died here in 639AD after accepting 30 diseases at once to avoid purgatory, has runic inscriptions, which may have been made by Viking sailors at this time.
The natural harbour is a haven for boat users and fisherman alike. Underwater enthusiasts can visit the Derwent shipwreck in the bay, dating back to 1880. Lamlash is the site of the only secondary school on the island, Arran High School and the Police station. Here you will also find a number of good pubs and hotels as well as a smaller Co-op shop selling all groceries. Lamlash Golf Club is perched on a hill as you travel into the village.
THE WILD north half of Arran spans from the pretty village of Corrie across the mountains to Pirnmill, which overlooks Kintyre. Miles of unspoilt scenery and striking wildlife are there for all to see. Corrie is situated six miles from Brodick. It has a pretty procession of cottages lining the road to Lochranza and wrapping themselves around a picturesque little harbour. It lies under the island’s highest mountain, Goatfell, and a path provides access to the hillside.
The village used to be a regular stop for steamers travelling around the island, but the pier has since fallen into disrepair.
Its one pub, The Corrie Hotel, has an informal and pleasant atmosphere offering good food and friendly service at reasonable prices.
Open all year round, treks take place through scenic countryside and total beginners are welcome from the age of five upwards. As you drive on the road over the Boguillie hill you will see some of Arran’s most fascinating wild life.
Herds of deer roam the hilltops while above you there is the chance that you’ll spot a Golden Eagle. Hidden at the bottom is arguably one of the island’s most beautiful villages. Lochranza is surrounded on three sides by high imposing mountains and in the middle of the bay is a fine ruin of a 13th century castle.
The village is the most northerly sited of all Arran’s villages and is located in the north-western corner about 14 miles from Brodick. The village has been celebrated in verse by one of Scotland’s finest writers, Sir Walter Scott: ‘On fair Lochranza steamed the early day, Thin wreaths of cottage smoke are upward curl’d From the lone hamlet, which her inland bay And circling mountains sever from the world.’The Lord of the Isle.
AS YOU travel on down the coast from Pirnmill the views of the Mull of Kintyre and the North of Ireland are breathtaking. Following the road high above Whitefarland past the charming Imachar farm visitors can see for miles on a fine day.
As you drive south you will see the magnificent Dougarie lodge on your left. This imposing white house hidden in Glen Iorsa was once the summer residence of the Duke of Hamilton. On the beach there is a delightful old boathouse leading down to the beach. It may be small but this is one of the west coasts loveliest beaches, plus there is a handy changing hut to protect one’s modesty.
A little further round the coast is Machrie, which is little more than a wide cluster of houses surrounding a charming golf course.
This flat seaside course sports nine holes and is 2200 yards.
MANY argue that the most peaceful area of Arran is the south of the island, compromising the villages of Kildonan, Kilmory, Lagg and Sliddery.
They share some fantastic beaches; big sandy bays as well as interesting rock pools. Kildonan is unusual in that it lies a short distance off the main road overlooking the small island of Pladda. Down south you will see the floating volcano Ailsa Craig, a bird sanctuary with an unmistakable outline. The name Kildonan derives from the name Saint Donan who is reputedly buried in the village.
Early life in the village revolved around Kildonan Castle. Once a royal seat, the castle passed between various Scottish nobles, before latterly belonging to the Hamilton family in 1544, by which time they were the earls of Arran. The tower was later sacked and burnt by the Earl of Sussex around 1558. The ruined remains of the building still exist. The modern village is a small thriving community with a much loved and much used village hall. There was a school in the village but numbers declined so much that it closed in 1968.

For many its a daily struggle to move ahead in life. Many struggle in relationships, in marriage, in raising their children, or always busy fighting off attacks of the enemy, seeing little or any progress is tough.
Life for many is all about struggle.
A story told by millions of well meaning souls.
is a simple foundational Torah Principle that can radically change life in an instant.
It can help you amass true wealth.
It can help you get the victory over the carnal flesh.
The first time the word Chashav is used in Torah, it is mentioned in Genesis 15:6, here it is translated as “counted”. Chashav is used 124 times in Scripture, it is translated count, devise, think, imagine, cunning, reckon, purpose, esteem, account, impute, forecast, regard, workman, conceived, made, held etc, we can see that the word is all about forward thinking.
To be successful we all must have a life’s plan and know how we will fulfill our life’s calling. It becomes paramount if we are interested in expanding our life and influence for a better future. The bigger our life goals, the more contributors, counsellors and workers are needed to fulfill our plans. The righteous Chashav will always bring souls together with accountability and synergy. A team effort finds ways to increasingly reward everyone on the team. The Chashav puts out the word, and tells the world which direction we are going. This is in effect sanctifying our time and resources to put towards our goal. As we share the Chashav with others we quickly determine who is supportive and who isn’t. Negative souls are also faithless souls, these like to debate for the sake of debate. Righteous souls will support your goals and seek to help find solutions to move you forward. Many times conflicts can be avoided if the Chashav is fair, good for all, clear and concise.
Before a couple marry they agree on a Ketuba (writing or covenant) which is a Chashav they write together. A Ketuba outlines how they will be prospered and protected together for the rest of their lives. Marriage is only as good as the partners are willing to fulfill the covenant to each other. So it is for an individual who writes out a Chashav for him or herself. The strength of fulfilling your Chashav should be as a covenant of righteousness to yourself, the more resistance that comes your way, the stronger and wiser you will become.
Life is not just happening to you by random chance. You have a Chashav that is focused on fulfilling your primary work in the Kingdom of Elohim. When you begin to see this come together, life gets exciting, resources and synergy avails itself. You will see that your Father YHWH will separate you unto Himself and put His blessings upon you. Why? Because you have purposed in your heart to walk in Faith and represent His Great Name according to righteous actions. It is impossible for you to fail, nothing on earth will defeat you if YHWH has opened the door to His Kingdom and His blessings upon your life.

He was born and raised on a farm in rural Ohio and from a very young age shooting, hunting and the outdoors truly became a way of life for him. Always being somewhat of a thrill-seeker, while in his mid-teens the Law Enforcement profession sparked his interest. After graduating high school he went immediately into a 2 year Police Academy Program. It was also at this time that he began actually competing in Practical shooting competitions. At present Robert is now a 3-time World and 23-time National Champion across 3 disciplines of Practical shooting. Besides this he has also been a Police Officer for over 13 years. Eight and a half of those years were spent as a full-time street cop while also being a member of the Counties joint department SWAT team.

These apps were available in the form of game, TV, and remote control simulator apps.
These apps have been downloaded over nine million times from the Play Store.
The researchers found another type of fake apps also that exhibited a different type of ad-showing behavior.
Google has removed a total of 85 malicious apps from Play Store after security researchers found these apps to be a disguise of an adware family. These apps were available in the form of game, TV, and remote control simulator apps on the Android Play Store.
The issue was first reported by the security researchers at Trend Micro. "This adware is capable of displaying full-screen ads, hiding itself, monitoring a device's screen unlocking functionality, and running in the mobile device's background," said the researchers at Trend Micro in the blog.
According to the blog post, these apps have been downloaded over nine million times from the Play Store with one of the apps named "Easy Universal TV Remote" has alone been downloaded over 5 million times. It is the most downloaded apps among the list of all 85 adware apps. The app also received multiple comments until the time it was available on the Play Store.
Despite coming from different developers and signed by different APK public key certificates, the apps exhibited same source code and shared the same source code.
So what harm could these apps actually cause you? Once downloaded and launched, these apps display a full-screen pop-up ad asking you repeatedly to press various buttons to continue. Every new page in the steps would open a new ad page. This would happen again and again until the app finally crashed.
Some of the malware apps would disappear after showing that it is buffering. These apps would still run in the background and show up in every half an hour on the device.
The researchers found another type of fake apps also that exhibited a different type of ad-showing behavior. These apps would track the screen unlocking action and display ads every time user locked the phone's screen.
This is not that Google has removed such click fraud apps from the Play Store. The tech giant in November removed 13 malicious apps from Play Store after they were found to lack legitimate functionality. Later in December, it removed another 22 fake apps for having a backdoor built into them that helped the apps do ad-fraud.

Lyons has found an exciting new way of making tea. By pressing the fresh leaves at different stages after picking we capture and preserve the genuine taste of fresh tea to create a new range of teas.A little richer than Original, Lyons Gold Blend is made form high quality, full-bodied teas to give every cup a warm golden colour and a refreshingly rich, smooth taste.
Tea is the age-old solution to every dilemma, and we Irish just can't get enough of it! Out of a population of just over 4 million people, three million of us drink tea, giving us one of the highest consumption levels of tea in the world! As a nation we drink up to five cups each a day.
At Lyons we pride ourselves on bringing you the best quality tea and the finest blends. The great thing about Lyons Tea is that it is a completely natural product, with nothing added but sun, rain and wind.
Lyons Tea is one of Ireland's biggest and best-loved brands. Anyone on the island of Ireland over the last few decades knows the jingle 'Extra quality, Extra flavour, Lyons the Quality Tea' unless you were hiding under a rock.
In 1902 the Lyons family started their little tea business at High Street in Dublin, near Christchurch Cathedral.
In 1932, Lyons moved to Marlborough Street, behind the Gresham hotel.
1963 saw Lyons move up in the world, to a state-of-the-art factory in Goldenbridge, Dublin 8.
The very first on-pack promotion by Lyons Tea was in 1963. When people bought a pack of Lyons Tea, they could hope to find a voucher for between 10 shillings and �10 inside.
Iconic campaigns, such as the Minstrels and the very popular car giveaway would become a vital part of the Lyons Tea brand over the next 25 years.
In the late 1970s, Lyons reinvented the wheel by going round. The change to round tea bags was so successful that Lyons managed to capture over 65% of the Irish tea market.
The famous "Lyons Tea jingle" played an important role in the Lyons success story, and is still one of the first things people remember today.
Lyons Tea became a part of the Unilever family in 1996.
Another milestone was the development of the tea-caddy style pack. People loved it for its sleek good looks and practicality.
The move from round to pyramid bags in 2004 was another major leap forward for the brand.
2004 also saw the creation of our famous feathered friends, the Lyons Tea birds: Maggie, Niamh, Pete and Tom.
In 2007, Lyons launched a new campaign to celebrate the health benefits of Lyons Tea, as a 100% natural product.

The Fifth Down | Has It Become Easier to Forgive Burress?
Has It Become Easier to Forgive Burress?
Would you take Plaxico Burress back?
General Manager Jerry Reese has been quoted as saying that he would “absolutely” consider welcoming back Burress if Burress could get past his legal troubles. Bob Glauber of Newsday, however, says Reese’s stance is more strategic than anything.
It’s in the GM’s best interests to appear as if he has every intention of having him return. Burress still has trade value if the Giants want to move him in the offseason.
The issue may be moot because Burress could go to jail for several years. But if he can avoid prison, it presents an interesting moral choice for Giants fans. Burress proved his worth by his absence. On the other hand, no surprise, he’s in trouble again.
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Plaxico Burress is in court again. A trial is scheduled to begin Wednesday in Pennsylvania to determine how much the New York Giants wide receiver will have to pay in damages for a car he leased before it was impounded by New York City police.
Someone as talented and who has given NY fans so much, needs to be helped and not further destroyed, as he enters his several remaining years of being a top-notch receiver.
People enter prison, criminals leave prison.
Amylee2345 you must be joking. Win a super bowl and its ok, break the law.
Being a talented athlete doesn’t entitle you to break to the law. What exactly has he contributed to NY? A superbowl ring doesn’t warrant a get out of jail free card. What if that bullet that hit his leg ended up killing a patron in the club that night? We wouldnt even be having this conversation.
They need to lock him up and terminate his contract – let him share a cell with Vick. Throw Pac Man in there too while youre are it. They can start their own version of the gridiron gang.
The Giants are not a moral authority, and are not the police. It rests with the State to decide who is punished and for what. Once his obligations to the State have been honored and he is a free man, (having paid his debt to society,) then there is no reason for him not to be welcomed back into the NFL.
NO WAY should this guy be brought back. For far too long athletes have been given a “free pass” in many instances where law breaking has occurred and it’s for that reason why there are so many problems in the professional sports league s that there are today. Burress, Vick and Jones are just 3 examples of players who feel they are “above the law” and commit crimes of all sorts feeling their fame, riches and popularity will get them off no matter what. You can render a laundry list of current players in EVERY sports league that has had runs in with the law and almost everyone of them has gotten nothing but a slap on the wrist and then continued to earn his seven to 9 figure salary.
It’s time this stopped, it’s time players like Burress learned theres responsibility tied to the actions they do and no matter how fast they run, no matter how high they jump or how many balls they catch/hit they will pay for those actions if they are outside the law.
Although a great receiver, the guy is hapless outside. Let the law play out. People seem to get more het up about Burress and other black athletes (did they hurt you personally? or are you jealous that their skills are making them rich?), and the government shows more interest in investigating pro athlete steroid users, than they do about really serious stuff. Let the man play when he’s free. That’s entertainment.
This ones easy. If Plaxico want to play gangsta, let him go to jail with the gansta’s. Sure mistakes happen but he must pay for them like the rest of us.
The problem isn’t whether its OK to tolerate Plaxico’s attitude towards the law. The problem is whether the team can count on Plaxico to keep himself available to actually help the team. Plaxico has been accused of things which reflect a stupidity or immaturity or a self-destructiveness. His failures are not the type that should banish him from the Giants. He’s not immoral or evil or at heart a criminal person. (I think he has a self-destructiveness that suggests to me an inability to handle good fortune in relation to the fortunes of someone else that he cares about (succeeder’s guilt?)) He should be given a “second chance” if he can show that he won’t make the team regret it. Only the Giants can hope know enough to hazard such a guess.
Yes we all know Plaxico made a mistake and probably deserves jail time, but he does deserve a second chance. Just because he is black it doesnt mean he needs to be compared with Michael Vick and Pacman Jones because both of those NFL players ACTUALLY harmed and killed animals and people. Pacman is still out and about so I believe that 3 years minimum is unfair. Besides Plaxico probably had better intentions then we all believe. Yes he did break the law, and deserves what he gets but to categorize him with other players and disqualify him from another chance is a disagreement with me.
I would bet that behind the scenes Tom Coughlin would do whatever he could for Plaxico – man to man. Eli, Pierce, Domenik Hixon and most of the G men want Plaxico back. Harry Carson is yet another man of true wisdom and he supports Plaxico. Plaixco has shown a level of maturity and respect for the G men by keeping a low-profile since his suspension. You have to give him some respect. Plaxico made huge mistakes but so have a lot of other players ever since the NFL’s existence. For example, why should Ray Lewis be playing? Only because he’s not in prison? Plax wasn’t involved in a murder. Rather, stupidly, in thinking he could protect himself from robbery or worst, he armed himself. Ray Lewis covered up his crime – google it – and also has an extreme disposition to harm woman. Ray Lewis’ associates in the 2000 murders are constantly in trouble. One of them recently pointed a gun at a cop who stopped him driving a stolen car – google it. There is a huge difference here. There is a web site that is collecting support emails for Plaxico: saveplax.com. I posted my support there for Plaxico.
I don’t have a problem with Burress getting a 2nd chance, but can someone explain to me how you envision him getting around what appear to be the very unequivocal New York City gun laws?
I’m all for giving a person a second chance, even a pro athlete, even Burress. But isn’t he past #2? Or is that as high as we count for our beloved sports stars, especially if we think their potential athletic value outweighs the severity of their misdeeds.
amylee2345: What philosopher are you quoting with “people enter prison; criminals leave prison”? OJ???
Sure, take him back. But remember to tell your son that it was a simple business decision, and that business decisions are sometimes messy and fly in the face of reason and good sense.
Or don’t take him back and figure out a way to win without him, thus insuring that your dignity remains in place.
We can take him back but he has to sleep every night on Rikers Island. You could never punish any other punk gun carrier gangsta if he doesn’t get more that a wrist slap. I’d like to see what he’d do to any cornerback who commented on his sleeping arrangements.
If he violated the law, then he needs to pay the price. Even if it means jail time. If the Giants want to take him back then that’s their choice.
THE GIANTS OVERLOOKED EVERYHING LT DID OUTSIDE GIANT STADIUM BECAUSE HE WAS THE BEST PLAYER THEY EVER HAD.I AM SURE HE DID FAR WORSE THINGS THAN PLAX EVER DID.LET HIM PAY THE PRICE FOR HIS ACTIONS AND THEN RETURN AS THE GOOD TEAMMATE HE WAS BEFORE THIS OCCURRED.
It is without a doubt that Plax has internal issues with self. He’s a individual with much success and is hurting inside with whatever that troubles him. In watching his game this year he’s been off track since the beginning of the season. It’s not about football, gun,and car accident rather, it’s all about Plax. Everyone makes a mistake in life and deserves chances whatever the count. Are you perfect? This doesn’t mean I support him in not upholding the law but the punishment seems to be a bit much. The fines alone will hurt him in pay and he didn’t get paid by the Giants as well towards the end. Until he is satisfied with himself he will continue to have trouble. If I was President/ CEO of this Organization a one year contract would be granted and then evaluate the full season. Plax is a good receiver but receivers come a dime a dozen. I don’t see him doing better anywhere else have any noticed Shockey? My point exactly!!!! The Giants have to much class for too much drama.
Business is business and clearly the NFL is all about BUSINESS. Bring him back and trade him. The G-Men clearly need another big threat on “O” and Plax has a lot of value. How about a straight up trade with Dallas for T.O. ?! OK, that’s a bit much but really the guy still has value and could get Big Blue a couple of decent draft picks. Has anyone looked at this years draft class?
JB- Number 28 Walls was the only Cowboy that did NewYork any good. When Cowboys give up anyone it’s because they’re no good. Please for the CITY OF NEWYORK Cowboys can keep Mr. Owens and all his me first attitude. He is not the style of the G-Men with hard blue collard work he is a flashly my way kind of guy. NOT!!!!!!!! The draft with young talent will do the Giants good. Hopefully, Giants keep Plax and his experience We will see 09.
You gotta be kidding me, right? I wouldn’t take that undisciplined bum back if I knew he would break every record on the books. Look, I’ve only been a Giant fan since 1946 and nobody wants them to win more, but not at the expense of destroying the team for a very long time. He is trouble, man, just plain ol’ trouble – with a capital T.

... would never want to work anywhere but Boston.
The standards in Foxborough are what they are, to borrow a phrase, and we all know that football is part logic and reason, part emotion. Logic and reason tell us that reaching the AFC Championship is a success. Emotion tells us that the Patriots were frustrating, maddening and downright disappointing on Sunday night.
Regardless, the question is always the same in the wake of a season-ending defeat.
How do they get better?
Of course, we all have theories on what the Patriots need. Assuming that Aqib Talib and Wes Welker both return, what follows is strictly one set of thoughts.
By contrast, the Patriots were trailing by a 21-13 score and appeared to be driving when Ravens safety Bernard Pollard rocked Stevan Ridley's world and forced a fumble in the fourth quarter on Sunday. A quarter before, Pollard was the same guy who drilled Welker (and drew a 15-yard penalty) just a few plays before Welker's huge drop on third down. The Patriots simply do not have a safety that physically changed the game the way Pollard did, and complementing McCourty with someone of the like would make a huge difference.
The good news? By the end of the season, the Patriots had corners that were actually pretty decent. McCourty generally did fine at safety. But the other safety spot was a train wreck.
2. A linebacker. Respectively, Jerod Mayo, Dont'a Hightower and Brandon Spikes were drafted in the first, first and second rounds. They all offer something. But not a single one of them excels in coverage, which is part of the reason the Patriots had such difficulty defending tight ends and running backs.
For what it's worth, opposing quarterbacks this season completed 68.5 percent of all pass attempts to the tight end against the Patriots. That's a big number. The Patriots certainly tightened things up in the red zone once McCourty moved from corner, but Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta caught five passes (on seven targets -- 71.4 percent) for 55 yards and a touchdown on Sunday.
In this area, Patriots coach Bill Belichick seems to have some choices. Tavon Wilson was a surprise second-round pick because, in theory, he is a hybrid linebacker-safety who can cover the tight end. Rob Ninkovich is a hybrid defensive end-linebacker who is good on coverage.
Whatever the solution, the the Pats have to get better at this.
3. A defensive lineman. Maybe the solution is in house, but the absence of Chandler Jones, who played only in goal-line situations Sunday, left the Patriots without much of a pass rush, particularly on the interior. Jonathan Fanene was supposed to help with this, but the Patriots cut him in training camp. Maybe Myron Pryor can be the guy. Or Kyle Love. Or Armond Armstead, the former Southern Cal defensive lineman whom the Patriots signed on Tuesday out of the Canadian Football League.
The point is this: a year ago, Vince Wilfork dominated the Ravens. This year, in two games against Baltimore, Wilfork was virtually invisible. The Ravens offensive line manhandled the Patriots in this game and the Patriots got no rush against Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco.
Certainly, a healthy Jones will help. The combined absence of him and Talib was a huge blow to the Patriots defense. But finding a more consistent, complementary player for Wilfork on the inside wouldn't hurt.
4. A big wide receiver. Minus Rob Gronkowski, the Patriots are vulnerable to physical play from opposing secondaries. Wes Welker is tough, but he's small. Both Brandon Lloyd and Aaron Hernandez can be muscled. For whatever reason, Tom Brady never so much as attempted a pass to a tight end other than Hernandez in this game.
For all of the concern about Torrey Smith, he caught just four passes on nine targets on Sunday. Meanwhile, the more burly Anquan Boldin had five catches and two touchdowns. Interestingly, Belichick had Talib matched with Boldin early in the game, which should tell you plenty.
The point? The Pats could use a guy with Boldin's size and hands. When Gronkowski is out, Brady lacks a big target to whom he can throw in traffic. Nobody is saying the Patriots need All-Pro players at every spot, but the absence of more physical players on both sides of the ball is apparent.
5. An offensive tackle. Sebatsian Vollmer's contract is up, but let's assume the Patriots bring him back. As Globe football writer Greg Bedard noted, Vollmer had a tough night on Sunday against the Ravens. Nate Solder did fine overall, but he, too, has shown vulnerability at times. Both players are young and may still improve, but Vollmer also has had some history of injury.
At the start of this season, the offensive line was a problem. Against the Ravens on Sunday, the Patriots couldn't run and really couldn't throw. The Patriots appear to have a good complement of backs, but the inability of any offense to perform against more physical defenses usually starts with inadequate line play.
Beefing up the depth on the offensive line certainly wouldn't hurt.
The final chapter on Teixeira and How Red Sox pitchers work the strike zone Jan. 7, 2009 and July 17, 2009. Some actual reporting â€“ an obsession with Mark Teixeira and the art of pitching.
For 2011 Red Sox, there was plenty of blame to go around Oct. 1, 2011. The disgraceful collapse of the Red Sox stoked the fire in all of us.
Behind Garnett and James, Celtics and Heat are digging in June 4, 2012. Improbably, the Celtics pushed the Heat to the limit.
Thrill is back for Patriots Jan. 30, 2012. Another Super Bowl has even Bill Belichick musing.
Youâ€™ve got to believe June 15, 2011. On the morning of Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals, we all had reason to believe.
