Cathy from Curves Orange wins the 2016 12 Week Challenge!
Cathy Goeghegan is the winner of 2016's 12-Week Challenge! Through hard work, determination and support from her best friend, Shannon and her trainer, Katrina, Cathy is looking great and feeling even better! Cathy started working out at Curves Orange after Shannon suggested they join together. With her best friend with her every step of the way, Cathy lost an incredible 49cm and 9.8 kilos over the 12-Week Challenge. What an incredible achievement!
Cathy attributes much of her success to the constant encouragement and support from her Curves Coach, Katrina. She recalls, 'there was a one or two-week period where I had put on weight, naturally I was disappointed, but thankfully I had my coach Katrina to help me ride through that.'
This support of Curves Orange was crucial to Cathy's success. Cathy's coach Katrina noted 'Curves is on a mission to help women live stronger together, we're so proud of what Cathy has achieved. We're glad she has found a place that fits into her busy life seamlessly to achieve personal fitness and health goals'.
At Curves, we offer a supportive, encouraging environment for women to work towards a healthier, happier and stronger life.

Tree of Life Library #1 - HOUSE OF LEAVES
For a very long time I have had the dream of a library completely arranged according to the ten Sephiroth. One could come in and amble along the old bookshelves. And by reading the titles on the spines, shelf by shelf, by pulling books out and flipping through the pages randomly or deliberately one would slowly become aware of the true depth and diversity of the divine force expressed in each Sephira...
In the beginning each Sephira would hardly fill a single shelf. The shelves, however, would be consecrated to the forces of the Sephira, a rite performed before opening to the public and a talisman bound in leather put on top of each shelf. And over the years the library would grow and the shelves would expand. Until they start to fill entire rows and at some points entire rooms or even floors of the building... Like the broad branches of a tree this 'Tree of Life Library' would grow as people donate books to it.
Now I really like this idea; unfortunately it's pretty hard to pull off. So the best thing I could come up with - between keeping this as a dream or going bankrupt over buying estate & books for the Tree of Life Library - is to share book recommendations with you according to this pattern. So every book recommendation I will share going forward will be placed on one of the brand new 'Sephiroth book shelves' in the virtual room of my blog...
I hope this can make nice companion reading material as we wander along the paths on the tree. So in case you like the idea - feel free to follow these posts which I will always mark with the heading 'Tree of Life Library' followed by the number and the title of the book. The recommendations will come in no particular order other than the attribution to a specific Sephira; I guess they will arrive on their own terms and just as the tides deliver them.
Should you have book recommendations for the library as well, please do share in the comments section. Who knows, maybe one day it will still become a place in its own right?
Here is the first book on the bookshelf for Hod...
This book is dark. And deep. To me it is the perfect representation of the vaults of Hod. It starts with a wonderful story-in-a-story-in-a-story approach and then just blows you away with the innovative use of page layout and style. A story is told on scraps of paper, full of notes and references to unknown sources, scribbled down by a half blind and dying old man and recovered by and pieced together again by a drug addict who slowly falls under the same spell as his predecessor. Yet, the real story which is told through the eyes and voices of these two authors is taking place in remote house and reaches the reader like a fading echo full of terror. Mark Z. Danielewski has worked on this beast of a 700 page book for more than ten years and delivered one of the most stunning debut novels ever. Since its publication in 2000 a broad cult of followers has evolved around the secrets and layered story of the book. If you are up for a reading experience that is like no other - and ready to enter the vaults of Hod with all its hidden rooms and chambers of knowledge, stories and echos - than the House of Leaves has all the right to come first book on your long bookshelf of Hod. I hope you'll enjoy.

This morning I decided I needed to call my urologist's office. I knew the doctor was out of the office for the next three weeks but I still called. I told the girl who answered about my symptoms etc and they wanted me to come to the Westchester office near LAX. I was going to see Dr. Tomasic 's PA, Melissa.
I had to give a urine sample and they decided I had an infection. They also felt it could be that the kidney stone has moved or the stent was irritating. Melissa was great gave me a couple of prescription and told us should things change call them immediately or go straight to Little Company of Mary. She would send a text to my doctor and tell him about our visit. I was to keep my appt with Dr. Tomasic at the Redondo Beach office in mid January.
I am dealing with much discomfort but hope that the stone passes so I do not have to go into the OR to have it removed.

It's a good-looking car with a desirable badge. Given the general layout of the hatchback market, with a number of non-premium brands making incredibly competent models at affordable prices, Mercedes needs to distinguish itself. Visually it's achieved that - the new A-Class is an eye-catching car.
In terms of pricing, the A-Class will be available from £25,800 in its most basic guise. Obviously that figure will rise as you browse through the model range, and especially when you start adding optional extras. Expect the median price of a new A-Class to be thirty-something thousand quid.

text: djcsuomi 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2011 I would like to eliminate the margins on the header of the page so that there is a clean split in colors between the header and the rest of the page. For example, www.nuyeek.com does exactly what I am looking for. How can I do this most easily? I can adjust the color of just the header with some css but the margin color doesn't go away. Any ideas? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
