How To Get Jeff Hardy Hair

My knowledge

F stirrer I regarded myself as a amateur philosopher. Ghastly, I know, and this for two reasons: first, it's bad, with 23 years already speak of "before", the other philosophy is now studied in its Form, probably often only a means to an end, to avoid real work. ?
questions as: What is the meaning of life, or why we are here, every teenager is in his first Depri phase to satisfy - the idea that someone occupies an entire course to themselves from now on to employ graduate with such things comes before me always grotesque.
Anyway - I had great fun with it, me with various people like Kant, Hegel, Plato and how to look hot all. This can be quite entertaining, especially when one gives up the doctrines of the various German teacher and his own interpretations of these writings in conversation brings.
Nietzsche's nihilism? What does this have to do with intellect, if one is angry at everything and always convinced of the worst? Plato's cave? Maybe he was just drunk and how he came to these ideas ... Philosophy can be very funny.
A few days ago I am now wondering what it means to "know". Yes that implements some form of knowledge - and knowledge is always relative, if we are to believe Socrates and his disciples. I know that I know nothing ... (And thus already knows more than he who does not know that he knows nothing ... No more beer for table three, would be my suggestion).

What I'm saying: I have lived for over 15 years at the edge of the beautiful Village Aadorf, and for nine years, I train around here. Very proud I've already seen more than once various card (also great) and I located my bike routes and walking - it's truly amazing how far you can get in a day with two 28-inch tires under it! My catchment area of one-day tours range from Glarus, meanwhile, over Lake Constance to the Black Forest. When running, it looks similar, but since I already had around.

Now I have discovered a new hobby for me, which presents itself to happiness with a nice side effect would be as highly intensive training: the mountain bike.
your initial mania took this last September, where I suffered at once a rough road Koller - if I only looked at my bike and me on the right the white line, the angry motorist was introduced next, by turning me. But since I still had competitions in front of me (which then ran good too!), I acted and dug my old mountain bike out again. This concept fits quite well, but this mill was a good four years behind a shed and was anything but functional. A few hours later I again had a fairly aggressive Vehicle available and began.
The tempo that you can ride a bike, differ greatly from those on a road bike - which means that the trips were purely of kilometers of course shorter. But I discovered that I had with this bike bound even less than the running shoes in any way. Before long, the "trail-tracking" has been one of my favorite activities. An almost overgrown deer trail, a half-hidden trail, and even simple cross-country - I suddenly everywhere to drive new opportunities in order to train and to simply have fun. Even though I sometimes auskotzte me so that I after two hours on the bike are hardly able to - I was extremely satisfied every time thereafter. And I realized: the area where I lived for over 15 years, is totally foreign to me! I had and still have no idea what inspired Trails and paths here are right outside my front door - and, above all, I keep discovering little, almost as "treasures" to be designated spot, which I previously and in this form had never seen before. Right now the autumn is a wonderful thing.

I think I "know" something really is only theoretically possible. But "to know" - this can be something great, no matter what's at stake.

"Oh, it's too cold, why can not already be spring, I want to go to training camp, Rolle training is sooo boring ..." - Those records are still to come early enough for me too. Enjoy the fall, it's worth it!

Sincerely,

Fabian

Express Card Reader 54mm

My opinion

As the days grow shorter and colder, there seems to be more and more people who are concerned . And about everything - as long as it is just negative enough, I think. I
am generally also support the back and once again to take the time to reflect on diverse, beginning with their lives. That sounds pathetic but already back, than I like, but should not be construed. Every now and then makes the question of whether one is doing the right thing, a lot of sense.
If it is then, however, suggests one way in which we only see black clouds in the sky, that can not permanently be good.

Why do I get on this subject? Yesterday evening I went very late by train from Bern to Zurich and took the train to a "magazine" disgraceful end booklets, whose name I do not want to mention here. No, it was not a free newspaper, but a high-gloss scrap the entgegenwedelte me there. And anyone who did not know better, unfortunately it was for this stuff but actually out of the ten Swiss francs.

In and of itself seems to me the idea behind the magazine not too bad - quite obviously, it is the authors of the articles to disseminate knowledge. Of these, one can never know, enough to have only - if one is made more palatable to more than 100 pages in word and image, as may soon could the world go basis, so the reader will soon pass a limited time.
Somehow I do not want to know that the Yellowstone National Park fly every moment in the air, taking back the humanity in the best case could be catapulted into the stone age. I'm not interested in theories that predict the 3000 meter high tsunamis originating in the Canary Islands, of course, also possible at any moment. And if I want to know about the conspiracy of the Illuminati, I can also go to the movies - there's the whole thing packed yet amusing at least in picture and sound.
When I imagine, however, that there are people who spend their money, month after month, just to figure out how they may be in one or two years could go to ground, then turns my stomach. And when I go to the scientific reader letters or EXPRESSLY as "brilliant journalism" and "Excellent Research finds ", I seriously wonder how to survive some people the day without having to jump off the nearest bridge.

I encourage myself so on so on this junk, because he almost already sad way my theory of . misery Geilen contemporaries in the German-speaking area underpinned If a gentle one's job and the sad life is repugnant -? why do you then have additional thoughts on possible every second incoming apocalypse
Do we really

I think when I know the answer to this, many problems would be solved. Perhaps some would but already served if their money the next Time would simply invest in the Mickey Mouse Magazine. What will be researched and passed on to the supposedly young readers, one can always prove Scientifically, the lyrics are just as "demanding" as in this doomsday skirmishes - and Donald Duck has so far managed to still improve my mood.
Well.

Emigrating To Australia With A Disability

My autumn

It's Monday, and as in a Garfield strip the weather is anything but Nett. I have asked myself a lot lately times, so the Monday is so because a bad week. Clear - a new week begins, after the weekend to restore the work comes to a to after the holidays, the school will start again on a Monday ... and so on.

Nevertheless, I believe that this is not necessarily as should be. There are many people who do not like their job or otherwise dissatisfied with their life and I am far from wishing to say to someone with real problems, he should think positively. I'm not a psychiatrist and my puberty is much too short back than that I had forgotten how I reacted, even in such situations.
also I have long given up the idea that it would be up to me to improve the world - the bottom line, many people that is not all that unhappy. Only "suffer" them to a trait of I have also made me upset and often self: stop complaining. A chronic complaining about everything and that. And above all: an unnecessary complaining.

The reason for this may be easy to find: it's us too well. Apparently, not Homo sapiens appears to be the urban created so happy to go through life - there must always be something you can complain. We lament this country at a level that is the envy of any social worker.

Do you know this very nasty situation where you ask someone "how are you?", And you get the same litany of family crises and served so on, when you actually only wanted to hear: "Thank you, good, and you?" Because 9 times out of 10 cases that would be for oneself the right answer. I, too, it is towards himself and then sometimes really dirty, but if I then briefly in me going and wonder if this is really relevant to the people with whom I talk straight, so the answer is almost always: no.
I have a roof over their head, enough to eat (relatively - but I'm not a scale), a functioning heating system, four bicycles and the privilege, even getting up on Monday in a good mood because I am on what would happen to look forward. It was actually really no cause for complaint.

Why I write? Well, today is Monday, and for me more or less the beginning of a new year.
Somewhere in the archives of this blog I once left out about how stupid I think New Year's resolutions - if you want to change something, you should not wait until the next calendar so that leap.
Today I start training again for next year and I would also like to combine with the intent to complain to me in the future not as often, because: I am looking forward to what comes. And above all, I, like most people, chosen for my job, and if it hurts - well, if I'm honest, I like the yes.

In this sense: good Training. And a nice Monday, I wish all.

Sincerely, Fabian

Nadine In Girdle And Nylons

diagnoses

Now it is history that is, the competition season in 2009. After a few competitions and events that do not quite correspond to my ideal, I could on 4 October finish the year in a way, how can I do it only every athlete.
The Ironman Canada was my first season highlight. I was in really good shape, but - somehow it did not work quite right. Although I could, compared with other races in some difficult situations to keep a cool head and made me so again three really serious Crises draw. Still, I was at the end with my time of 9:29 hours, only vaguely happy.
Not long, and I decided several things: first, against a launch on the Uster Triathlon, on the other hand, for a start in the Challenge Barcelona - another long distance. Until now I had convinced myself that I was initially operated with a long-distance per year. But then I thought: why not?

On 1 October, I went in the early morning hours with my mother going to the south - a season in which I usually already held the legs up. In my luggage was two days before re-made road bike in working order (after I tore Locarno a brake-and shift cable - lucky to Locarno ...) - the training in the preceding weeks had been sparse and mainly on a mountain bike. No reason to panic, I told myself - at least I was well rested.

After two days in the hotel, then on Sunday morning so far - the last and most difficult race of the same year was in order. I was nervous as it was any other race, and asked myself why this was so. It was not my first long distance. But this time, so many new unknown factors to say that I simply could not, what would happen to me. First, even swimming in the sea. Then the coastal road on the Costa Maresme, the opposite my expectations were anything but flat on the first eight to ten kilometers. Since it was a course of three rounds, we would be six times hunted through the hills. A flat marathon course, prone to heat like nothing else, for once, bars and gels from other manufacturers as Powerbar (I had my rations, but if would be enough ?)... every time I had my own peace of mind came the next question. And before I knew it, I stood with about 50 other pro athletes on the start line - but are not previously been in the water. The adrenaline was pumping, the pulse went up - and then took a turn the day, with which no one had counted and which, as I think this race for the next Coined years in advance.

The sun had not yet risen, the sky turned slowly red - in front of us the surf thundered onto the beach. We waited - as the speaker called out for a minute's silence Andreu Serra, who had arrived shortly before the race to death. In the transition area lay flowers in front of his bike stand.
From one moment to the next all was quiet - only the sound of the waves could be heard. Then, classical music was played, and Andreu's training partner threw flowers into the sea. When it was said: "one minute to the start", all stood completely still and deeply touched at the start line. And somehow you could tell that everyone was internalized: the Day is long and hard. No reason to be too heavy at the beginning of life.

Then came the start signal, and we were on the road.
noticed after about 1.5 Km I want my already ailing slightly wet suit, began to chafe under the arms - a completely new experience in salt water. I tried to ignore and, after 53 'rise from the water.
From there went to the bike course, and what can I say - here I felt at home. That it would be a hot day was clear. I have always been at the forefront when it came about to pick up the big mouth. Heat'm out of nothing, as is unfolding before my full potential. Only: heat in Switzerland, and heat on the English coast, these are two different things. And so I finally had the opportunity to prove this theory.
This was my very good - I drove the Radsplit my life! The heat inspired me and I managed again to remain calm in situations that otherwise would have taken me from the rest. I could eat and drink enough, and for the first time on a long distance I had after 150 miles still feel they have not ripped off. After 4:56 for me was the Radsplit to end - I was almost 20 minutes faster than in Zurich, and on a track that was not really easy to drive.

Unfortunately, everything has beauty eventually come to an end, and was with me for two miles on the run. I flew from the change tent and felt great - my legs did not hurt, were just a bit tired. But then it started with the pain. I had new shoes on the feet, which I had previously been run though - apparently not enough. After four miles my stomach started to rebel, so I had to go to the emergency room the next chemical toilet. (Toilet is exaggerated -. Sauna would be a better name) then my belly was indeed quiet, but I was not able to appear clean. 2008 I'm having a hard time to have been on the run course - here in Spain, was allowed I find that Zurich 2008 is not such a bad thing after all. I have worked long and much to my running style. If you suddenly just not in a position to act as usual and push off, then everything is improvisation. I felt about as elegant as a duck with a concussion. Added to this was that there were of a gel abomination (of taste, at least) that I was really bad and I surrendered to the third tube. That was pretty much up to kilometer 30 - then it got better. After all - I could enjoy the last few miles. I was able to run. And I thought of all the positive, what I do on this day so far was allowed. The good mood of the pro-athletes, even on the track. To the almost perfect Departments Organisation. The beautiful weather. As best I had felt on the bike. I did not know how long I was on my way, but it got more and more important - I wanted to be able to say at the end of the day: "more was not possible." And that would succeed me!

When I was turned onto the final straight and celebrate with the people I saw for the first time the clock showed 9:29, and the hours and counting to ...
For Sprint gave it yet. I would not finish after 9:30. So I pulled the last tab - and finished the race in 9:29:38 hours.

Of course, I wanted to break the 9-hour limit. As I got off my bike and loslief, I also felt as if it might work. Then that the marathon was such an ordeal - it was a mistake on my part (the shoes) and a good dose of fate. But it comforts me somehow. I'm back! The race was faster, running a lot harder than last year - and again I was under 9:30 hours. And next year ... since everything is open!

I would like to thank everyone who supported me in Spain. On the track you are an athlete, although alone, but no one brings his performance if he does not have people in the back, support him, believe in him and carry him through the tough passages. Thank you!

My special thanks and respect goes to the training partner of Serra Andreu, whose name unfortunately nobody knew on the court. He has devoted his entire race to his friend. He wore flowers on the finish line and thus honoring its partners in a way, in which we can only bow our heads. This first Challenge Barcelona was influenced by these two triathletes, and as far as I'm concerned - this will keep the race Andreu Serra.

Sincerely,

Fabian

Shoe Questions On Nordic Walking

forecasts

It is not so long ago, according to the calendar that we finally were able to welcome the summer. I am of the opinion that this year we were really spoiled in terms of sunshine and temperatures - at least compared to last year. Really - from May to now, the end of September, you could almost always train in a short shirt, which increases the quality of life or exercise properly.

now I look back on a season that is not exactly a highlight, but certainly not bad. The last comparable year was 2006 - my first year as a licensed pro-athlete in the long distance.
This year I felt even on the short distance at last the usual pressure. The Ironman introduced me not really satisfied I was hoping for more - or less if you look at the ending time.
But then came the "turn" - a new lung doctor, new diagnostics, new dosage of medication. After two weeks with virtually no medication I was in Locarno my former best time of 4:11 hours to just seven minutes after the press and the bottom, although I am on the bike the chain 'jumped out and I was struggling on the run course with mild respiratory distress.
It went well. I was happy with the race and felt well prepared for the outstanding season-final in Barcelona.

Tomorrow morning we go - I will go by car through France and stay in Pineda de Mar, about a kilometer from the venue Calella removed.
The last days were anything but optimum preparation - and I most of the time with my band "Sláinte" spent in the recording studio, the training course was too short. Sure - so close to the competition can be on the final shape to do anything, but for some it would have been reassuring to have spent one or two hours in the saddle. The mental stress did the rest - and all in all, makes it very difficult to provide a forecast for the Challenge.
I do not know what will happen to me in Spain. Perhaps everything works, and I manage a fantastic race. I hope so.
My personal goal is to give the race at all I have. The season to conclude with a race that I can say at the end: that was the maximum. Everything did not go.

I wish you all a good end of the season - be it the well-deserved beer in the garden or on the trip to Hawaii. Winter is coming fast enough, the next season sneaks up on already. Enjoy the time that you can totally stress-free stay in the sun, without freezing! I look forward to a fast and hard race in Calella and I will then report back.

Sincerely, Fabian

Get Dark Hazel Eyes To Pop

experiments

In sport there are many things that do not run perfect. Fairness in competition is a key word with which one hour-long debates can trigger.
I consider myself as an athlete tends to be very fair. Only "tend" because you can not really control who you at the swim start now on a fry. Because it is virtually impossible to get on board as one of only three outstretched Geltuben and thus different to be considered. Because it is sometimes just stupid, even "fair" (ie, alone and with no slipstream) to drive, if left pass by platoons with thirty, forty athletes wheel to wheel on one.

fight since my childhood I have a problem that is abused in sports, especially in professional sports, often as a pretext, as a means to an end: I am asthmatic.
been in previous years tried this disease to be with homeopathy Mr. (which brought me sleepless nights, an allergy to sheep's wool and the prophecy, he could push never in my life sport without killing myself), I also found, among the ten years to traditional medicine. And not long after the sports.
Only: I am now, more or less dependent on medications to take with me, which, as you so sweetly on the black list.
It went to me saying that this medication reported in the various sports federations such as Swiss or the Olympic Tri Austria was. So I filled each year appropriate forms of anti-doping companies, and has been registered. Only: because my medication were in a division where one of "simplified procedure" language (or German: Doctor's signs, approved it gets), it became clear very soon - such a sweep of the signed authorization says nothing. Virtually everyone who wanted to, got the stamp of Okay on the use of drugs, which supports the lung function - and many more. The sad thing is that I am more than just an athlete confirmed this - but do not run in red.

But apparently it is now over. From this year, so 2009 it is no longer enough from a doctor to prescribe remedies let - you must prove his illness by the prescribed test. This means that an athlete of "Performance asthma suffers (ie, shortness of breath, which is operating at loads), is clamped to a ergometer and there must be under medical supervision really give the edge before anything is approved. In acute asthma permanent (thus me) a methacholine test is required - a lung function test with subsequent inhalation of asthma-provoking substances.

Yesterday it was for me so far - I had my test. A week earlier, was "allowed" to sell me the medication altogether, and then was measured.
I felt rarely in my life so uncomfortable in that booth - After the third delivery of the methacholine test had to be canceled because my lung function had dropped to well below 80% of the standard. I also feel the after effects today, the morning after, and if I remember my last such test, then it will take a while until I'm fully operational again. My asthma is unfortunately still quite real - but thanks to the sport, I find it increasingly easier to control the disease.

means for me specifically, Locarno is an experiment. I would not continue to deviate from my bar and will instead tackle the competition without medication - which is used again when the methacholine completely is deported.
In view of my ambitions in the Challenge Barcelona, it is important to me heal, have made themselves fully again - even if that means to let others go first on Sunday.

doping in triathlon, as everywhere, in the meantime, unfortunately, definitely an issue. And while most of the top athletes will be controlled so well that the national anti-doping agencies modest even know if even an aspirin is taken, so more and more recreational athletes begin to abuse drugs in order to increase their performance. Unfortunately, this is neither a statement frustration on my part nor Urban legend but a fact of which must not ignore it.
The WADA (World Anti Doping Agency) always takes new steps to prevent this (the above mentioned adjustments to the provisions concerning anti-asthmatics were such a step), but in the end the responsibility lies primarily with us: the athletes. outside

Therefore my appeal to you there: remains fair. Makes even a trip to the appropriate sites on the Internet, read the competition rules by - and rejoice when you have finished a competition on its own. Because that's the point, finally, is it?

Free Canel Toes Women

Decisions II

It's done - I am on the start list for the Challenge in Barcelona. That is, on 4 October 2009 I will for the first time in my life a second long-distance traveling within a year. I am looking forward to this experience and many had prior to this race.
it means the same time, however, that the time and training schedule be changed to be something in September.

So I've decided to forego this year to launch on Uster Triathlon. The reason is that this weekend is still in a period in which I should put intense training for BARCELONA. Since now not all concentrated on Locarno, but on a date one month later, the whole periodization moves backwards. To German: Locarno is the starting point for the final phase in training for the Challenge on 4 be October.

Also I would like to perform on the weekend type in the chance to even watch other athletes during competition and cheer on - for years I was at this competition at the start and I look forward to now, this year once before as a spectator place to be.

Sincerely, Fabian
