ts long been told that high heals are bad for our backs and posture

Come on, we've all heard the research, but here, I give another perspective on how your stilettos can affect you.

Whenever I head out to a bar or nightclub, my choice of footwear is one of the most important things. For me personally, heals really aren't an option. To put it very simply, I'm a total clutz. I couldn't walk in a straight line if I tried, and that's without alcohol! Apart from that, pain sets in after wearing them for even just an hour and when ever I do wear them; my friends end up hating me because I complain endlessly.

I will never forget this one time I actually did wear some very hot high shoes to a classy bar. Let me tell you, I'll never do it again. They were gorgeous; black, pointy, leather with gold velvet trimming over the toe. I picked them up at a designer sale one afternoon for $150. I just had to have them even if I only put them on for a few minutes each weekend around the house. Come on, the price was amazing! These discounted shoes became my worse nightmare.

Teamed with a beautiful black dress, I headed out with my greatest group of girlfriends. We decided to do a bar crawl that evening and all the walking from nightclub to nightclub in those evil shoes did me serious damage. Throughout the night MBT shoes sale  I could feel the sides of my shoes cutting into my ankles, almost like my gorgeous heals were slowly eating away at my feet. I knew if I took them off I'd never get them back on so I put up with the pain for the rest of the night. The pain in my heal was sharp, I could feel a warm, Christian Louboutin   moist sensation dripping around my ankle which I knew would be blood seeping from my foot, but I kept drinking more in a bid to numb the pain and fought back the tears and tried to ignore the feeling of nausea.

When I could put up with the stinging, throbbing sensation no longer, I headed home and rippedWholesale Replica Handbags  those horrible shoes off. I knew the damage was bad when my friends all gushed and screamed at the sight of my cut, blistered and bleeding feet. I put my legs in a bucket of hot water with salt to clean the wounds and when I went to the doctors the next morning, I was placed on antibiotics. Dramatic cause of action I know, but my once very beautiful, discounted shoes had given me a really bad internal infection.

the most famous example of something that was "impossible" was the four-minute mile

Records Made to Be Broken... Except One?

As someone who ran track and cross-country for four years, one of the things that I know well in the world of sports is the pursuit of records. MBT shoes sale  Whether it is a personal record, a team record, a county record, a state record, a national record, a junior record, a collegiate record, or a world record, the pursuit of records is vital to the world of distance running. One of the most prestigious is the mile. Four laps, one minute per lap was something that people thought was impossible for decades.

Professional runners in the 19th century could muster no better than the 4:12 3/4 posted by Walter George of Great Britain in 1886, a record that would not beChristian Louboutin  surpassed until 1915, which was broken in turn by the great Paavo Nurmi of Finland in 1923, when he ran 4:10.4. The 4:10 barrier was finally crossed Jules Ladoumegue of France in 1931. Then, the record steadily fell for the next 14 years, to 4:01.6 by Gunder Hagg of Sweden in 1945. Then, the record held. There was a fear that runners would literally die before their bodies would allow them to run a four-minute mile.

A Medical Experiment

One of the people determined to test that notion was a British medical student, Roger Bannister. Devoting his lunch breaks to training, while taking weekends off, Roger Bannister tested his body and did his best to determine what made a great distance runner. He developed his confidence when running a 2:59.2 1200m in 1952, which convinced him that he could run the fourth lap fast enough to Wholesale Replica Handbags  do the impossible. He finished a disappointing fourth in the 1952 Olympics, despite running under the previous world record for 1500m. The next year, he ran a 4:03.6 mile, convincing him that he could trim another four seconds off his time and become the first to do the impossible. While he was making his run, John Landy of Australia was also making his push for history, running a mile in 4:02 in January 1954. A sense of excitement was in the air in the world of track and field.

Not Ideal

On May 6, 1954, 25-year-old Roger Bannister was entered in a race in Oxford. Before the race, winds were over 25 mph, and the cinder track was soggy from the rain. Roger Bannister considered withdrawing to conserve his energy for another day. However, he changed his mind, and decided to run. However, he ran, and when the track announcer said the number three, there was a deafening roar. Roger Bannister had done the impossible! He had run four laps in under four minutes! His final time was 3:59.4, and his immortality was guaranteed.

Who We Remember

Landy would not be denied, however. Only six weeks later, Bannister's world record would fall to Landy, who ran the mile in 3:57.9. The two would race in August at the Empire Christian Louboutin Shoes  Games in Vancouver, the first time that two sub-four milers ever raced, and the only time that all of the sub-four milers in the world were gathered in one place. In an iconic moment, Bannister won the race when he passed Landy on his right, and Landy looked over his left shoulder to see where Bannister was.

The history of this sport goes back as far as the mid seventeen hundreds

After that he tended to leave them alone but intrepid inventors then rearranged them so that they were now the 'in line' variety. This is because they wanted to emulate the ice dancers of the time and it really became popular.

About a century later a new boot was invented which enabled the user to be able to turn like the ice dancers and this now is where the usual sport that we see today took off. Men would do turns and spins, to impress ladies of course, and then racing games were invented so that the sport took off in many different directions. Within twenty years rinks sprang up around the country and this now became the family fun place that we are all familiar place.

If one thinks of these rinks and family fun, it sort of smacks of the nineteen fifties where people had little else to do but the popularity just keeps on going. During the seventies, when popular music took the world by storm, the sport was reborn yet again with disco rinks becoming popular and this is now where modern day dancing was done too.

Of course, what helped this along was the invention of plastic floors and new materials which made it much easier for people to glide along. Because it is relatively inexpensive to go along to these rinks and have fun, even generations of families have become involved with some now using the sport to keep fit. MBT shoes sale

Political humour is highly popular material

Politicians are popular public figures so anyone can identify with them to get a good laugh. The public generally blames government for everything, whether the reasons it has to do so are sensible or not. Politics is a good source of humour - even when the economic downturn is practically crashing down on everyone around the world, people still get a kick out of political humour.

What's good about this type of humour is the fact that it is able to address whatever political issue is at hand. Everyone identifies with an issue, that's why political jokes are highly popular. They inject amusement into pressing issues without regarding the whole thing as an attack on a particular politician or statesman. It is rather more of a personal observation of the character traits prevailing in the political arena seasoned with a little comedy and wit. In some other instances, there lies beneath the surface some intent to bring forth as issue and initiate change or action on the part of the political subject.

Societies who are able to enjoy political humour should consider themselves lucky. This is the legacy of a free society. There are certain countries and cultures around the world where political ribbing is totally banned. Government controls all forms of media so citizens are not allowed to pull a little fun from the political scenarios. MBT shoes sale

Political humour is a manner by which arrogance and hubristic tendencies of those who are in power may be prevented from taking shape. Citizens have the right to speak their minds, and one way to vent this out effectively is through political humour. With politicians tending to become too egotistical or overbearing at times, comedy has been the most effective vehicle that indirectly exposes issues and concerns to the general public. Christian Louboutin shoes

Politics, like entertainment will always be favourite material for comedy and humour. The general population feels a connection to it and its popularity is best described by George Bernard Shaw when he said, "The problem with political jokes is that they get elected." Wholesale Replica Handbags
