TAKE THE SLICE AWAY FROM YOUR GOLF SWING
Take The Slice Away From Your Golf Swing
Who Else Wants To Add 27 Yards ToTheir Drives, Eliminate Slices & Hooks, And Earn The Respect Of Every Golfer On The Course? Click Here To Find Out How!
All golfers want that perfect golf swing that they can always rely on. It is a swing that can be used effectively with either a wood or iron. Tee off and drive with it which is adapting to changes in wind and terrain. It is a swing that can get you out of bad situations like bunkers and even water. It is a swing that is as simple as it can get, yet can be versatile and dependable.
That is possible only if you don't slice your swings.
Perfecting that golf swing definitely isn't easy, no matter how you look at it. It takes a lot of experimentation and practice to get the kinks out of the swing. However, the real fact about this is that it is actually simpler than you think. It is mostly about what you do during your swing.
Simplify
One tip that always works is to always keep your swing simple. You can end unnecessary movements that may be wasting energy and were bad for your swing with as few movements as possible. There is no real need for your elbows to bend during the swing and you have to only pivot with your feet as you follow through. There is no need to take an extra step or anything, which can skew with the shot.
Rhythm
Of course, if you can't improve by yourself, then get a coach who can teach you the finer points of improving your golf swing. Balance and correct positioning are crucial to a good golf swing. However, without rhythm, you can never achieve these two things. You are to ensure that you can have a smooth rhythm in your swing to fix whatever you need to fix. You can hum a tune, sing a song, count, or do whatever is necessary to get a rhythm down to swing correctly.
Hand and Wrist Position
Another tip is to always mind hand and wrist position. One of the major causes of slicing is that the club is twisted during the swing, which makes it hit the ball in a crooked manner, driving it in directions other than straight ahead. This is due to the hands and wrists twisting during the swing because of wrong positioning. The technique must be refined in order to correct this mistake.
Interlocking your hands by connecting the little and ring finger of your dominant hand with the index and middle finger of your complementary hand (never call that other hand 'weak') to solve this problem. This can help you prevent that unnecessary twist with a little practice. It can also help you improve in terms of accuracy and distance.
Straighten Your Spine
Always have your spine straight and acting as an axis for your swing. The importance of spine alignment can never be understated when it comes to golf. Imagine yourself as a pendulum with your spine as the point of axis. This can help you simplify your golf swing in a great deal.
Hip Rotation
With that spine straight and fingers interlocked, you must also remove excess hip rotation in your golf swing. While lots of hip rotation is something that can make a punch stronger, this is not boxing. In golf, that hip rotation causes slicing, and that can damage your game. Therefore, you must keep hip rotation as minimum as it is required. However, don't mistake this for removing hip rotation in your swing as it is still required to generate power in your swing.
Therefore, study how much hip rotation is needed to improve your swing. These tips, along with lots of practice, can help you remove that slice and achieve distance and accuracy in your golf swing.

ANGELINA JOLIE AND HER TATTOOS
ANGELINA JOLIE AND HER TATTOOS: "But as the couple made their way down the festival's famous Croisette in a chauffeur-driven car afterwards, the four-part scribing on her left shoulder was plainly visible. Each line, it has emerged, represents the very international map coordinates detailing where their four children, three of which were adopted, were born.
From the top down, and from left to right, is the longitudinal and latitudinal location of Cambodia, where the Oscar-winning actress' eldest son, Maddox, five, was born.
Next are the coordinates pertaining to Ethiopia, the country from which Miss Jolie plucked two-year-old Zahara."

LINDSAY LOHAN ABOUT HERSELF
LINDSAY LOHAN ABOUT HERSELF:
Lindsay Lohan 21, after an 84-minute stint in jail for drink-driving and alleged cocaine possession, and three well-publicised stints in rehab later, seems a little different. Less animated, shall we say? Less droll. More demure. Who knows if this is the dawn of a new Li Lo, if she really has, as the huge press machine behind her insists, turned over a new leaf? Google her and all you find are stories of the vodka-Red Bull relapses, the mink coat she has been accused of pinching, the thousands of dollars worth of clothing she was supposed to have stolen from a friend's closet, and, by the time you read this, who knows what else. But now, just for now, she seems to be on her bestest behaviour."

THE FAME FORMULA - WHAT MAKES PEOPLE FAMOUS..
THE FAME FORMULA - WHAT MAKES PEOPLE FAMOUS..: "What makes people famous? And once they make it, how do they stay in the public eye? Top PR agent Mark Borkowski has studied the celebrities, crunched the numbers, and come up with a formula
The decline in a star's fame follows a certain trend, and fame can be continued ad infinitum in the hands of a careful, clever 'flack' or publicity agent. I spent a year poring over cuttings, pondering this notion as I studied the various methods and madnesses of the publicist. I started to wonder if Andy Warhol - an artist by calling but a master of the stunt and the sound bite - was right; does everyone get 15 minutes of fame? It occurred to me that it should be possible to look at fame statistically, to analyse the evidence we have all witnessed in the media, to see if fame's decline can be quantified. The answer, I discovered, is that it can be, and that Warhol was partially right - but the first spike of fame will last 15 months, not 15 minutes."
