<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #333333;">Breckenridge, Colorado, has transitioned from a mountain mining
town to a mecca of activities and attractions to suit virtually any traveler.
Additionally, the city's renovation of its river area has added even more
options for vacationers who are not interested in skiing. The following are a
few of the most popular attractions for Breckenridge visitors:</span></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #333333;"></span></span></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<b><a href="http://www.summitbiking.org/area_rides/vail_pass_summit.html" target="_blank">Breckenridge-Vail Bicycle Trail</a></b><br />
<br />
Summit County is home to an impressive system of paved bicycle paths that
eventually lead to Frisco, Colorado, which is about ten miles north of
Breckenridge when cyclists follow the Blue River Trail. After biking from Breckenridge
to Frisco, vacationers can enjoy a spectacular view of the celebrated Ten Mile
Canyon Trail. Motorized vehicles are not allowed on the trail, making it
perfect for those who want to commune with nature without having to worry about
traffic. At the bottom of the mountain are the villages of Vail and Lionshead,
where a stage is available for those who wish to ride back to Breckenridge.<br />
<a href="http://redrocksonline.com/" target="_blank"><br />
</a><b><a href="http://redrocksonline.com/" target="_blank">Red Rocks Amphitheater</a><br />
</b><br />
Vacationers looking for interesting entertainment should visit the Red Rocks
Amphitheater. Located approximately 15 miles southwest of Breckenridge and
nestled among red, sandstone rocks that stand over 400 feet high, the theater
has featured a variety of music venues for over 30 years. This 9000 seat
theater offers stunning views of the rocks, which provide a perfect backdrop
for the stage.<br />
<br />
<b>Ten Mile Flyer Zip Line</b><br />
<br />
Those who enjoy a surge of adrenaline while on vacation should not miss a ride
on the Breckenridge Ski Resort's famous Ten Mile Flyer Zip Line. This
attraction features a zip line ride that spans approximately 400 feet in two
stages. Participants can enjoy soaring 50 feet in the air over various ski runs
at speeds of almost 45 miles an hour.<br />
<br />
<b>Confluence Park</b><br />
<br />
The region where Cherry Creek and South Platte River meet–a recreational area
called<br />
Confluence Park–is considered the perfect place for outdoor lovers. It is ideal
for kayakers, white-water rafters, birdwatchers, hikers, or those who simply
want to enjoy an afternoon picnic outdoors. South of Cherry Creek is a nature
path leading to a large shopping center near the Chatfield Reservoir. Those
seeking a relaxing, casual day should consider a walk through the Reservoir or
a picnic at Cherry Creek.<br />
<br />
Travelers can make reservations online or contact a travel agency for
assistance. However, regardless of which venue one chooses, it is important to
book as far in advance as possible, as Breckenridge is popular among skiers and
non-skiers alike. No matter what type of attractions and activities a
vacationer has in mind, most people agree that a trip to Breckenridge,
Colorado, is an unforgettable and captivating experience.</span><br />

<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">With its incomparable natural beauty and proximity to the
Pacific Ocean, few would arge that Little River is one of Northern California's
treasures. It's also an ideal backdrop to a variety of courses that golfers of
all skill levels will enjoy.</span></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
<br />
Here are some of those courses and what they offer:<br />
<br />
<b>Little River Inn Golf & Tennis Club</b><br />
<br />
Part of one of the region's favorite resorts, Little River's nine-hole golf
course presents not only spectacular ocean views, but challenges befitting of a
layout that is surrounded by redwoods and pine trees. It's a case of nature -
the course is an Audubon-certified sanctuary - blending with recreation. Annual
golf and tennis memberships are available.<br />
<br />
The 5,458-yard course includes a pro shop, driving range, and putting green.<br />
<br />
<b>Sea Ranch Lodge & Golf Links</b><br />
<br />
The Sea Ranch Golf Links combines ocean landscape with a Scottish links-style
layout over 18 scenic holes. There are four different tee boxes per hole, enabling
golfers to choose the kind of challenge they're looking for.<br />
<br />
Designed by noted architect Robert Muir Graves, Sea Ranch opened as a nine-hole
course in 1974 before the final nine holes were added in 1995 for a total
layout of 6,649 yards. The course is open for play year around. In 1998, Sea
Ranch was cited by Golf Digest as being one of its 'Places to Play,' and it has
been listed as one of the state's most picturesque courses. It includes a full
grass driving range, putting green, and pitching/bunker green.<br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.ukiahgolf.com/" target="_blank">Ukiah Municipal Golf Course</a></b><br />
<br />
Challenges abound at one of Northern California's oldest public courses. The
Ukiah Municipal course encompasses the rolling terrain and hills of the
surrounding area while providing a perfect setting for all levels of golfers -
from experienced, to those taking up the sport for the first time. This course
has been open to the public since 1931.<br />
<br />
<b>Brooktrails Golf Course</b><br />
<br />
The nine-hole Brooktrails executive course provides a fun challenge in nearby
Willits, Calif. Also designed by Robert Muir Graves, Brooktrail's layout
measures 1,279 yards and has a par of 28. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 7.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

For a professional athlete, getting injured during a game or a practice can be a disaster. It can keep them from playing for anywhere from a couple days to a full season to their whole life, if they don't take care of it. Poor warm-up, poor training, or fatigue are all responsible for their fair share of nasty <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.break.com/topics/soccer-injuries" rel="break" target="_blank" title="Soccer Injuries">sports injuries</a>. Sometimes it's none of those -- instead, something just goes wrong and a player falls or lands wrong. The question then is how to treat the injury.<br /><br />While an injured non-athlete might be able to get back to their normal physical state by just waiting for the injured body part to heal, the stakes are a little bit higher for athletes, who push themselves further physically than much of the population. This means that often, some form of physical therapy or rehab is involved.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mispinecenter.com/treatments/physical-therapy">Physical therapy helps the athlete</a> rebuild the necessary strength where they were injured. In some cases, it can prevent recurring issues or prevent permanent damage. A weak body part is susceptible to more serious injuries, so it's important to get the athlete back to full physical peak before they play again. This can be done with the use of exercises and stretches to build strength with the use of special therapeutic equipment.<br /><br />The use of physical therapy depends heavily on the type of injury involved. The most common sports injuries are dislocations, sprains, strains, and swollen muscles, all of which have exercise specifically targeted toward healing them.<br /><br />Athletes that find themselves doing the same motion all the time, such as tennis players or pitchers in baseball, may be at a greater risk for <a href="http://www.emedicinehealth.com/repetitive_motion_injuries/article_em.htm">long-term repetitive motion injuries</a> and can benefit from physical therapy exercises even before a major injury comes along. Conditions like tennis elbow and golfer's elbow are directly related to these motions, but the inflammation involved can be prevented or reduced with the use of physical therapy exercises.<br /><br />Even after the injury has subsided, keeping up with the physical therapy exercises can prevent the injury from recurring or getting worse. Some athletes even visit physical therapists before any kind of injury has actually occurred. They then incorporate therapeutic exercises into their regular warm-up and stretching practices, which helps to strengthen potentially problematic limbs and joints.<br /><br />For a injured athlete working with a physical therapist, they need to realize that healing with therapy will take time and dedication. Depending on the type of injury, it may be a long time before they are up to speed again, but the more faithfully they stick to their physical therapist's recommendations, the quicker they can expect to get back in the ga</div>

You probably also know how much money Americans spend on TVs, food, and party supplies in preparation for the Super Bowl too since every major news station likes to make it their "big" story each year. And let's not forget about all of the news articles and blog post that share <a href="http://sportscardlists.com/super-bowl-grub-statistics/">statistics of our eating habits during the big game</a>. But in my honest opinion, the Super Bowl just wouldn't be the same if you aren't watching it on a big screen TV while eating copious amounts of food and washing it down with a steady stream of beer. If you agree with me on this, then I suggest whipping up one of these fan favorites to enjoy during the game:<br />
<br />
<h4>
Pretzel Bites</h4>
<br />
These little guys make for great
finger food during the game and they cater to a large crowd since you
can provide guests with a variety of dipping options such as mustard or
queso cheese. The <a href="http://southernfood.about.com/od/appetizerbreads/r/Pretzel-Bites.htm">recipe</a> states that the dough needs to rise for an hour so don't wait until the last minute for this one. <br />
<h4>
<br /></h4>
<h4>
Tomatillo-Poblano Guacamole </h4>
<h4>
</h4>
<br />
If you like guacamole and need to put together a last minute recipe you will be thrilled with this choice. It will only take you 30 minutes and is pretty healthy for you too! The guacamole goes great with tortilla chips or baked pita chips. View the recipe <a href="http://www.delish.com/recipefinder/tomatillo-poblano-guacamole-recipe-8720">here</a>. <br />
<br />
<h4>
Mini Pizza Pockets</h4>
<h4>
</h4>
Love pizza, but don't want to wait forever for delivery on one of the busiest days for the pizza industry? Then make these cute and easy <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/recipe/mini-pizza-pockets">pizza pockets</a>! Another advantage of making it yourself is being able to vary the toppings so everyone can have their favorite kind of pizza.<br />
<br />
<h4>
Peanut Butter Cup Crack Brownies </h4>
<br />
If you agree with me when I say one of the best combinations in the whole entire world is chocolate and peanut butter then this is your new drug. Don't even think twice about making these <a href="http://cookiesandcups.com/peanut-butter-cup-crack-brownies/">delicious treats</a>. Just do it.<br />

All good bowlers must learn
enough about their own game to know what equipment will allow them to play their
own game. If you are a down and in player (more direct) in most situations you
want to use equipment that will not force you to cross more boards than you are
comfortable with. On the other hand you don’t want to select a ball shell so
weak it does not pick up a roll soon enough. If you are a power player and you
have a tendency to make your mistakes to the right you need to use a ball that
will give you a little area to the right and not force you to point it up to
the pocket. Be careful not to choose too big a ball or too much surface, cause
it will force you to stand very deep and have to cover a lot more boards. Below
are some examples of different balls. There are so many balls on the market
today that there is no way to mention all of them. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In competition try to play your A-game. Don’t assume you can
play the lanes the same way as someone else who has a very different game than
you.

of time before you are forced to move inside. The more you have to move inside
and set the ball down in more oil the more you will have to use a strong enough
ball that will recover (hook back), or more surface. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All things considered you must pay a lot of attention to the
lanes because they rapidly change because of the new aggressive cover stocks
made today and you may need to switch to a weaker shell as the league night
goes on. There are many times when a bowler who hooks the ball more will choose
a stronger ball than a straighter bowler because they need to get much deeper
and be assured that the <a href="http://www.bowlwithbrunswick.com/balls/all/">bowling ball</a> will recover. Try to stick to your A-game and
learn to choose the right equipment for your style of play. In future articles
I will cover some ball layout suggestions. <span style="line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Super Bowl Sunday is bittersweet. It is always a great
reason to spend the day with family and friends, but it also means the end of
the NFL season. And since the college season ended a couple of weeks ago with
another <a href="http://www.crimsontideplanet.com/ua-alabama-crimson-tide/2012-BCS-Champions">Championship</a>
for Alabama, what the heck are we supposed to watch? You watch football movies
because until the NCAA tournament, ‘fake’ football is more entertaining than
basketball. Be sure to check out the top five grossing football movies, including

Ahh if it was only summer…people would be out running
around, enjoying the great outdoors, losing weight, staying healthy and moods
would all improve. Alas, it is not summer, it is winter and it is cold, dark
and <a href="http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/400x/14540544.jpg">terrible</a>. As such, it is no secret that people's motivation to exercise and
stay healthy fades away as fast as the warmth does.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’m here to tell you, that despite the fact that its’ tough
to get motivated, now is the time of all times that you must exercise. Allowing
winter to take over and beat you this year can set yourself up for a very
difficult year weight wise, as well as boost your body’s risk of getting <a href="https://encrypted-tbn1.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTEPv2LxPsFrrSGwRFN8C6WPFqgRbygV19H9BNeEOUss_N0KDUe">sick</a>.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So, bottom line, I know it’s tough, but do whatever you need
to do to stay motivated to get your self up, moving, and exercising daily. It
might be tougher than usual, but come summer you’ll feel really good about not
having to play catch-up to look good in that bathing suit!<o:p></o:p></div>

Today is practice day of arguably the most important tournament of my career. I got here early today because we are on an Air Force Base so you have to go through some security checks.
You never know how long things like this can take so I try and give myself some
extra time. We’re bowling on PBA Regional Pattern #1 this weekend. The pattern
is 40’ and we are bowling on AMF HPL 9000s, which could equal high scores. So
far this summer every time we’ve used this pattern the scores have been on the
medium to high side so I expect the same. What I don’t know is how the pattern
will play. On <a href="http://www.brunswickbowling.com/">Brunswick </a>Pro-Anvilane the pattern usually plays in, but on HPL’s
it plays out. Go figure! I’ve been battling some leg injuries and a cold/flu
so I didn’t plan on practicing the full 2 hours. I noticed right away that
there was plenty of friction on the gutter and I jumped out there right away. I
used several different <a href="http://www.bowlwithbrunswick.com/balls/all/">balls</a> looking at different angles trying to find what
will strike the most. After about an hour I packed my stuff up and spent some
time working with my buddy who was having some swing issues so I
did my best to straighten him out. After practice was over it was time to grab
some dinner before the pro-am. Several of us went to the Olive Garden to run
them out of soup and salad. The pro-am was a blast
tonight. It was all youth bowlers and they seemed to have a great time. I was lucky
enough to do a couple of trick shots and pick up splits with 2 balls. That
always gets the crowd going. Now it's time for bed - Big day tomorrow!
