Gun control: turn your 9mm arms into M16s with this triceps-splitting routine

HORSESHOE HAVOC
Who doesn’t Want bigger arms? (Anyone who said “not me” is lying.) An impressive set of guns gets noticed, and while that perfect biceps peak is a thing of beauty, your bi’s won’t bulge without a solid triceps holding down the fort. Your upper arms are two-thirds triceps, after all, so they contribute most of the mass. Effective arm training requires dedication, hard work and precise timing. The key is to exhaust them yet still allow for adequate recovery so they can be trained again in the near future.
Working triceps on chest day, which makes sense anatomically, means you won’t be able to target them as effectively as if you hit them separately. Yet if you train them alone, your tri’s may not recover in time to help with your bench press. It’s tricky to build everything evenly without something getting overworked.
But to really see results, try giving your arms their own training day

Arthur is taking a Wright risk; SPORT SHORTS: BOXING

FORMER world super-featherweight champion Alex Arthur admits taking on light-welterweight Nigel Wright is a risk, but he feels he needs a stern challenge to re-ignite his ambitions of fighting again for a world title.
Arthur decided to step up to lightweight after losing his WBO crown to Nicky Cook in September 2008, but a recent blood disorder means he is unable to diet and has forced him to temporarily step up yet another level.
So Arthur will take on friend Wright on the undercard of Amir Khan’s world title defence against Dmitriy Salita at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle on December 5. Arthur said: “Of course it is a risk, but boxing is all about taking risks.
“Some people take risks every day in their life. It is what makes great champions. I have had problems in the past to get motivated against British fighters.
“Nigel is a brilliant boxer. He was a great amateur and Nigel is a bigger guy than me.
“That is the challenge, that is what is getting me motivated.”
“I always set goals for myself

FIVE MORE GO OUACKERS! City and Liverpool stars fly to Belgrade for placenta ‘cure’; CAN SHE WORK MIRACLES? Premier League stars flock to see magical Mariana

Byline: JOHN EDWARDS
AT least five other Barclays Premier League players have tried the same controversial placenta cure that Robin van Persie hopes will speed his return from an ankle ligament injury.
As the Arsenal forward flew to Belgrade yesterday in an attempt to cut his recovery from two months to less than three weeks, Sportsmail learned that three Manchester City players and two from Liverpool have already placed themselves in the care of radical physiotherapist Mariana Kovacevic.
Pablo Zabaleta, Vincent Kompany and Nigel de Jong have all taken their search for a remedy to her Belgrade home, and Liverpool midfielders Albert Riera and Yossi Benayoun are believed to have been there yesterday after suffering hamstring injuries against Birmingham a week last Monday.
Van Persie was last night thought to be undergoing the controversial procedure that involves massaging liquid from a horse’s placenta into the affected area.
Sportsmail can reveal that City even flew Kovacevic over to Manchester earlier this month and discussed the possibility of adding her to their medical staff.
Wary of publicity and secretive about her methods, she declined their invitation but made it clear she would continue to accept players as patients.
Demand for her services has now soared to such an extent that she has recruited a management company to run her affairs.
‘She used to treat people in her spare time, but it has started spiralling out of control,’ said Zoran Krneta, of Star Management Signings, an English-based company with offices across Europe.
‘She is quite secretive about it, but the three main elements are massage, the liquid and maybe a little bit of psychology.
‘I’m not sure how much percentage applies to each, but it is effective.
‘She receives people in her home, and though there has been some scepticism, she is schooled in physiotherapy. That has always been the essence of her work.
‘Hamstrings and muscle injuries are her speciality, but it is possible she can treat the sort of ankle ligament injury. that Van Persie has.
‘She is very serious about her work and always examines a patient before deciding whether to proceed. If she feels it is not appriopriate she will not waste their time or take their payment.’
Benayoun feared he would be out for at least a month but is now setting his sights on the Merseyside derby with Everton a week on Sunday after confirming he had visited Kovacevic for treatment, along with Riera.
‘I have been in Belgrade to see her, and I am feeling better already,’ he said

BARRY FERGUSON admits he will have to think carefully before committing to Scotland again after claiming he has never been as content as he is at Birmingham.
Scots skipper Ferguson and keeper Allan McGregor were told in March they would no longer be considered for the national team following the ‘Boozegate’ scandal and the V-signs they flicked to cameras after it.
But SFA chief executive Gordon Smith says whoever takes over from sacked manager George Burley will be allowed to pick the pair.
“I’m so happy, I’ve settled in so well and the fans have took to me,” said Ferguson, who joined Birmingham from Rangers in the summer

Innovation Group Launches Insurance Platform

0 Comments | Wireless News, Apr 10, 2009
Innovation Group, a provider of enterprise software and Auto and Property network management solutions to the global Property & Casualty industry announced the release of an insurance processing platform-Innovation Insurer.
Innovation Insurer employs Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to allow insurers and their customers access to processing capabilities, via internal systems as well as online.
A differentiator of Innovation Insurer is processing capabilities which may be used together (e.g. Policy and Claims), selectively (Billing, Rating, Channel Management, FNOL, etc.) or as stand-alone solution components (Policy, Claims and Analytics). Components include complete Policy Administration for Auto and Property, First Notice of Loss (FNOL), Claims Management from FNOL through settlement, customer and business Analytics, Fraud, and usage-based insurance processing (’pay as you drive’).
“We recognize that one size, one system, one solution does not fit all,” stated Eric Wadsworth, CEO of Innovation Group, North America. “Insurer provides a modular, turn-key solution portfolio that can address carriers’ immediate pain points while simultaneously providing a stable platform for growth. Today they might need to cut costs associated with maintaining redundant legacy systems. Tomorrow they may look at replacing Billing or perhaps the entire Policy system

billion annually. According to Forrester Research, travel spending is
expected to rebound starting in 2010 and continue upward through 2013.
