Submitted by: Jesse Cannone You’ve tried everything to get rid of your neck pain: physical therapy, cortisone shots, prescription pain pills — you name it, you’ve done it. So why does your neck still feel like it’s stuck in a vise that’s being turned tighter and tighter? Notice that all of the tactics you’ve tried focus on the physical.

Here’s where we tell you that your neck pain is at least partly in your head. Not that you’re imagining it — though some doctors have probably told you that when they couldn’t figure out the problem — but that your mind and emotions can be keeping you stuck in pain.…
First signs of recovery from horse flu outbreak
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 As of 1600 hours local time (08:00UTC) Western Australia became the first state to resume normal internal movement of horses. The decision to lift restrictions was taken after all horses known to have entered the state in the two weeks prior to the outbreak of Equine Influenza in New South Wales were tested and confirmed not to be infected.

Anyone traveling to WA that has been in contact with horses should shower, change their clothing and foot wear and disinfect any equipment. The sports governing body in…
Football: Chelsea sacks Frank Lampard as club’s manager
Thursday, January 28, 2021 On Monday, English football club Chelsea announced the sacking of their manager Frank Lampard. This came amid a decline in form in the Premier League. The 42 year-old was first appointed as manager 18 months ago in July 2019, and had also previously played for the club for thirteen seasons. The club had only won two of their last eight matches and had sunk to ninth in the Premier League. Chelsea stated “This has been a very difficult decision, and not one that the owner and the board have taken lightly”, adding “There can never be a good time to part ways with a club legend such as Frank, but after lengthy deliberation and consideration it was decided a change is needed now to give the club time to improve performances and results this season.” Lampard stated he was “disappointed not to have had the time…
I Need A Personal Loan To Stop An Eviction 5 Steps To Take
Here’s An Opinion On: Compare Greenslip By Larry Donaldson Facing eviction from your home can be a terrifying experience. The idea of being out on the street, moving back in with family or going back to being a renter are not appealing options for most people. After all, if buying your home feels like a privilege you can be proud of, then losing your home to eviction feels like a disgrace. Usually, a person does not get an eviction notice unless they are behind several payments on their mortgage. Thus, even a sizable loan is not likely to completely pay off the sum total of your outstanding mortgage payments in one fell swoop. On the other hand, many banks are becoming increasingly reasonable with their mortgage customers due to problems in the home mortgage industry as a whole. It just may be the case that being able to pay for…
Interview with U.S. Republican Presidential candidate Tom Tancredo
Tuesday, September 25, 2007 Tom Tancredo has been a member of the United States House of Representatives since 1999, representing the 6th Congressional District of Colorado. He rose to national prominence for his strong stance against illegal immigration and his announcement that he was a Republican candidate in the 2008 Presidential election. David Shankbone recently spoke with the Congressman and posed questions from Wikipedia editors and Wikinews reporters: DS: Throughout my life my father, a lifelong Republican and an avid listener of Rush Limbaugh, told me that all we needed in this country was a Republican Congress, Republican Senate and a Republican White House to get this country on the right track. Last year he expressed his disappointment to me. So many Republicans, like my father, feel lied to or let down by the party. The rationale for the Iraq War, the sex and bribery scandals, the pork barrel projects,…

Anti-racism rally in Sydney
Monday, December 19, 2005 A number of rallies were held in Sydney on Sunday to protest against what they describe as racism in the community. The National Union of Students organised an event at Town Hall, and the Ted Noffs Foundation held an event in Belmore Park later in the day. About 2,000 people marched through Sydney, and there were also gatherings in Newcastle, Brisbane, and Melbourne. Lebanese Australian student Chadi Sankary rejected alcohol as an excuse for racist and violent behaviour. “People are not willing to admit that this is about racism,” he said. “You can’t be under the influence of alcohol and paint your massive banners with racial slogans on them or you can’t make t-shirts while you’re drunk so it can’t be accepted as an excuse.” Matt Noffs, of the Ted Noffs Foundation, said that the solution to racism lies with the people, not politicians. He also…
