Seven New Wedding Traditions Every Modern Couple
W
hen it comes to planning a wedding, much goes into consideration – including the wedding day traditions that come along with the ceremony and reception. For years, it’s always been customary for the bride to wear white, with a veil covering her face and for the father of the bride to give the woman away (as well as foot the bill). However, as time has passed, things have been changing and the matrimony customs of the past don’t necessarily work for the contemporary couple.
1. Toss out the bouquet toss. Traditional wedding games like tossing the bridal bouquet and removing the garter belt are being done less in favor of more dancing time.

overlays – specifically for their wedding day, to tie in their theme for branding purposes.
4. Ask guest to check their cell phones at the ceremony While social media is on the rise for the reception, asking guests to limit their use of their cellphones during the ceremony is also becoming a growing request. Limiting guest interaction with their cell phones during the nuptials is on the rise. You’ve hired a professional photographer to capture your guests’ faces, not a sea of cell phones.

While there may be a few changes here and there, when it comes to the style of décor or the overall look and feel of the occasion, it’s always good to keep some of the classic concepts.
Amazing Facts You Probably Didn’t Know About Dogs Do you think you know everything there is to know about canines? Think again! Check out these interesting facts you may have never heard. 1. Your dog is as smart as a two-year old! Ever wonder why children around this age seem to have a special bond with the family dog? It could be because they speak the same language, roughly 250 words and gestures in fact. 2. A study at UCSD claims that your dog can genuinely get jealous when they see you display affection for another creature. 3. The United States has the highest pet dog population in the world, approximately 75.8 million. 4. Man’s best friend? Petting a dog and gazing into their eyes releases oxytocin (the love hormone) not only for you, but for them as well. 5. Dachshunds were originally bred to fight badgers. 6. Dogs that have been spayed or neutered live longer than dogs who are intact. 7. More than half of all U.S. presidents have owned dogs. 8. Stray dogs in Russia have learned how to ride the complex subway system, and get off at specific stops in search of food. 9. Your dog can smell your feelings. In fact, your dog’s sense of smell is approximately 100,000 times better than yours. So it shouldn’t be shocking that they can in fact smell things such as fear. When a human is fearful, they perspire, and a dog is easily able to pick up on this change. 10. Dogs have wet noses because it helps to absorb scent chemicals. 11. Dogs can be trained to detect cancer and other diseases in humans. Cancerous cells release different metabolic waste products than healthy cells in the human body. Dogs may even be able to sniff out cancer cells simply through smelling someone’s breath. 12. When your dog is carefully choosing the perfect place to do his business, it is because they prefer to poop in alignment with the Earth’s magnetic field. 13. Have you ever wondered why your dog curls up in a ball when they sleep? It’s actually an ageold instinct to keep themselves warm and to protect vital organs while they sleep. 14. Your dog can help you get a date! One study showed that a man’s chances of getting a girl’s phone number went from 10% to 33% just by having a dog with them. In the study, a staggering 66% of men and women would not date someone who didn’t like pets. 15. Labradors have been the most popular breed in the United States for the last 26 years. 16. Scientists believe that the world’s first known dog lived 31,700 years ago. This prehistoric dog resembled a large Siberian Husky. 17. There are approximately 600 million dogs in the world. It is estimated that nearly 400 million of those dogs are strays.

The Most Important Dates In Golf History
I
f you play golf, you know that it is a unique sport that requires skill, focus and strategy and perhaps you have some idea that golf has a lengthy history. However, what you may not know is that golf is an ancient sport with roots deep in Scotland. Unlike other sports such as football which are quite recent developments, early golf dates as far back as the year 1296. Back then, the sport didn’t even share the same name. Instead, the Dutch near Scotland were reported to have played a stick game called “colf.”
Thankfully, the name changed as the Scottish adopted the sport and even founded the first rules of golf in 1744. Though the original version was not as detailed as modern golf, the Scottish approached the sport with the same level of seriousness we do today. Rule No. 4 clearly illustrates this strictness by stating that “no golfer shall remove stones, bones or any break club except upon the fair green and even then, only within a club’s length of the ball”. Sound somewhat familiar to today’s rules? Though golf is undeniably a very old sport, the most important dates in Golf History occur during the 1800’s when the sport’s popularity really took off. This popularity could be traced to the 1840s when a new method of making golf balls was discovered. Using the coagulated milk of the Malayan gum tree instead of stuffing the balls with feathers, golf balls were cheaper and easier to make which allowed them to be bought by anyone, even the working man. As golf became a common activity for leisure, it naturally became more competitive. As a result, 1860 ushered in the first Open Championship. One of the most notable names among these original champions was Old Tom Morris who, in 1868 at age 46, won the Open Championship making him the oldest victor of the title. From this point forward, the Championships multiplied, and the stakes grew higher as more and more skilled masters vied for the same title. As the history of golf evolved, the list of true masters only grows longer. One great golfer, Ben Hogan, is renowned for winning the Masters, the U.S. Open and the Open Championship consecutively in 1953. In 1960, Arnold Palmer predicted his score of 65 before winning his only U.S. Open at Cherry Hills Country Club in Denver, Colorado. Some other giants in the sport are Jack Nicklaus, a golfer credited with the most major victories in history. And Tiger Woods, the youngest man and first African-American to win The Masters in 1997. All of these historical insights highlight the fact that golf has a long legacy of accomplished, highlyskilled athletes that would rival any other sport’s Hall of Fame. If you haven’t researched golf’s background, read up on it and discover what had to happen to shape the golf we know and love playing today. Better yet, hit the green and simply enjoy golfing!

Left-handed Golf Tips
THE BLESSING AND THE CURSE OF LEFTY GOLF
I
f you’re a left-handed golfer, you probably have a different experience of the game than right-handed players. This usually happens for a few reasons. Firstly, an overwhelming amount of instructional content is designed for right-handed players. If you’re a lefty, you have to adjust the instructions to make them work for your swing. If you’re new to the sport, this is easier said than done. The second reason is that most equipment is geared toward right-handed players, which does make sense as an overwhelming majority of players are right-handed. That being said, there are more options for lefties than ever before. According to Education and Career News, only 10% of the population are lefties. Southpaw golfers are an even smaller percentage. Left-handed golfers make up about 5 to 7% of the North American market. Golf pros estimate that number being an average of 1 out of every 30 players are left-handed. While there are some disadvantages to being a lefty in a world where most golfers are righty, there are some advantages as well. One big advantage is increased creativity and imagination. Think of Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson. Both are known for their insane creativity to hit shots that most golfers simply can’t pull off. Specifically, they seem to make magic at Augusta National. Just think about Phil hitting his miraculous shot through the trees from the pine straw on the Par-5 13th to set up an eagle putt. Or Bubba curving a gap wedge 40 years around several magnolia trees on the Par-4 10th hole to win the Masters. Studies have found individuals who are left-handed score higher when it comes to creativity, imagination, daydreaming and intuition. They’re also better at rhythm and visualization. So if you’re a lefty, you are more likely to have more intuition and creativity to see shots that some right-handed players might not see. In a sport where your imagination is needed day in and day out, this is a huge advantage over fellow players. While there are some perks of standing on the other side of the ball, unfortunately there are more disadvantages. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still become a great player. Here are some tips for improving grip and stance. Here’s how to make the left-handed golf grip: •.Start by putting your right hand on the grip. You want the grip to be more in your fingers than your palm. •.Then curl your right pinkie, ring and middle fingers over the handle. If it’s more to the left, you have a strong grip that will favor a draw. If it’s too far to the right of the grip, you’ll likely play a fade more often than not. Try to be in the middle so it’s in a neutral position. •.Once you have a good hold with your right hand, then add your other hand and once again, place it in your fingers, not your palm. •.Finally, roll it to the right side of the handle. This is a neutral position that will allow you to hit it straight, play a draw and play a cut shot. Golf Stance for Lefties: While a solid grip is necessary, don’t forget about your stance and alignment either. So much happens before you ever swing your club. If you aren’t aimed properly, you will make all kinds of corrections to adjust accordingly. Whether you’re right-handed or left-handed, master your stance so you can set yourself up for success. This means having your feet, hips and shoulders in line with your intended target. If one of those is off, it can wreak havoc on your full swing.

SOME AMAZING THINGS TO SEE & DO AROUND BOULDER Many know Boulder as a college town at the base of the Rocky Mountains, tailored to suit outdoorsmen and students. In reality, there is something for everyone here from hiking dazzling trails to taking in an open-air music festival. Shopping streets, art museums, and many more unique activities abound, so read on to find out the best things to see and do in Boulder. Pearl Street Mall Pearl Street is the beating heart of Boulder, alive with music, street performers, eateries, shops, and more. The open-air mall ambles through Downtown, in front of the majestic mountain line on the horizon. The mall offers boutique shops, galleries, and bookstores with distinct local flare, such as the Boulder Bookstore, independently owned since 1973, or Into the Wind, which is dedicated to the sale of artisanal kites. Foodies and bar-goers are spoiled for choice among Pearl Street’s bars and restaurants, and art lovers can tour galleries or take a trip to Color Me Mine, a paint-it-yourself ceramic shop. Mt. Sanitas For some of the best views of Boulder Valley, take a hike up one of the many trails to the peak of Mt. Sanitas. This is an ideal day hike, as any one of the trails is only about three miles long and of varying difficulty. Advanced hikers should take the East Ridge Trail that is more rugged and steep which converges with the main trail at the northern end of the mountain. Novices or those looking for a leisurely trek should try the central Mount Sanitas Trail, which meanders gently around the mountain. Be sure to pack water and snacks as this is not an easy hike, but the views are worth the aching muscles.
14 Things To Do
Boulder Theater The Boulder Theater was originally an opera house that opened in 1906 under the purview of local merchant James Curran, and today it is a multi-functional music and entertainment venue. The facade is in the art deco style of old movie theaters (a residual feature of the theater’s stint as a cinema) and the interior is a deceptively large concert hall. Everything from disco to rock can be heard by local and touring bands, and the annual Boulder International Film Festival is on every March. Banjo Billy’s Bus Tours For an unusual way to experience the sights and sounds of Boulder try a Banjo Billy’s Bus Tour, which is about as campy and quirky as it sounds. A ramshackle wood-paneled bus is decorated with string lights, a hanging tapestry from the roof, and almost excessively comfortable couch seating. This pseudo-log cabin rolls along both the main drags of Boulder and the more offbeat sites. Drivers, most of whom could double as comics, illustrate the history of the city and tell ghost stories as the bus passes ‘haunted’ landmarks. Fiske Planetarium The Fiske Planetarium is part of the Colorado University campus. The lobby area and exhibits are free and open to the public, while the planetary shows have a fixed fee to get in. This domed structure houses a planetary projector that reflects a perfect image of the stars and other astronomical objects onto the roof, like a mirror in an IMAX setting. The planetarium is used for astronomy shows, live lectures, and music-themed laser light shows on a weekly basis. Head to the adjacent SommersBausch Observatory on Fridays for a free open house, and gaze at dazzling nebulas and galaxies through a telescope. Boulder County Farmers Market The Boulder County Farmers Market offers the best locally-grown produce, flowers, and herbs in town. The open-air markets spans 13th Street on Saturdays and Wednesday and includes coffee and craft vendors on top of local farm products. Swing by to try free samples and soak up the flavors of Boulder, which are usually accompanied by live music bands. The Saturday and Winter markets are at the Fairgrounds on Nelson Road. Red Rocks Amphitheatre Just outside of Boulder nestled in the mountains is the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, one of the most unique concert venues in the world. The theater is like a dreamscape with seating that escalates up a steep slope in the Rockies towards a crystal clear Western sky. A plethora of famous figures are drawn to the Red Rocks every year, including Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Dave Chapelle, and John Legend, to name a few. The park surrounding the venue is reason enough for a trip, and for those not interested in music, have a meal at the neighboring Ship Rock Grill overlooking the valley. Bands on the Bricks On Pearl Street every summer is Bands on the Bricks, an outdoor concert series accompanied by food, shopping, and drinks. Local bands concentrated mainly in the bluegrass and rock arenas play every Wednesday, and a beer/sangria garden opens at 5:30 PM before the shows begin. A new local brewing company is featured in the garden every month with a range of seasonals, stouts, and ales. Come down to Pearl Street for great tunes and a taste of Boulder’s most popular district.

»6» Surefire Ways To Make Your Home Sell Faster
1. TAKE GREAT PHOTOS If your listing photos don’t show off the features of your home, prospective buyers may reject it without even taking a tour or going to the open house. Hiring a professional photographer and posting at least 30 photos of your home, inside and out, is a good way to attract buyers. 2. CLEAN EVERYTHING Nothing turns off buyers like a dirty house. Hire a company to deep clean it if you can’t do it yourself. Key places to clean while your home is on the market include kitchen countertops, inside cabinets and appliances, floors and room corners where dust collects, shelves, bathroom counters, toilets, tubs and showers, inside closets, windows inside and out, scuffed walls, baseboards and doors, basement and garage. 3. LET THE LIGHT IN People love light and bright, and the best way to show off your house is to let the sunshine in. Open all the curtains, blinds and shades, and turn lights on in any dark rooms. If the natural light situation is lacking in any room, strategically place lamps or light sources throughout to set the mood. 4. MAKE YOUR HOME AVAILABLE Buyers like to see homes on their schedules, which often means evenings and weekends. Plus, they want to be able to tour a home soon after they find it online, especially in a hot market where they’re competing with other buyers. If your home can be shown with little or no notice, more prospective buyers will see it. If you require 24 hours notice, they may choose to skip your house altogether. 5. SET THE RIGHT PRICE No seller wants to leave money on the table, but the strategy of setting an unrealistically high price with the idea you can come down later doesn’t work in real estate. Buyers and their agents have access to more information on comparable homes than ever, and they know what most homes are worth before viewing them. A home that is overpriced in the beginning tends to stay on the market longer, even after the price is cut, because buyers think there must be something wrong with it. 6. SPREAD THE WORD Your neighbors are often the best salespeople for your home because they love the neighborhood. Make sure they know your home is for sale and are invited to your open house. Also share your listing on social media and ensure your real estate agent does the same. Share the news on neighborhood e-mail lists, Facebook groups and other social media outlets. Collaborate with your real estate agent to promote your home’s listing information throughout multiple accounts.

The Monaco Historic Grand Prix is held every two years on the weekend before the Formula One Grand Prix and if you go then you will have more fun for several reasons. First, the older cars are more open, so you can actually see the driver in the cockpit wrestling the wheel on the narrow streets. Second, it’s more relaxed so you can get closer to the pits.

Five Benefits of Yoga That Are Supported By Science
D
erived from the Sanskrit work “Yuji”, meaning yoke or union, yoga is an ancient practice that brings together mind and body. It incorporates breathing exercises, meditation and poses designed to encourage relaxation and reduce stress. Practicing yoga is said to come with many benefits for both mental and physical health, though not all of these benefits have been backed by science. Here are five evidencebased benefits.
1. CAN DECREASE STRESS: Yoga is known for its ability to ease stress and promote relaxation. In fact, multiple studies have shown that it can decrease the secretion of cortisol, the primary stress hormone. One study demonstrated the powerful effect of yoga on stress by following 24 women who perceived themselves as emotionally distressed. After a three month yoga program, the women had significantly lower levels of cortisol. They also had lower levels of stress, anxiety, fatigue and depression. Another study of 131 people had similar results, showing that 10 weeks of yoga helped reduce stress and anxiety. It also helped improve quality of life and mental health. When used alone or along with other methods of alleviating stress, such as meditation, yoga can be a powerful way to keep stress in check. 2. MAY REDUCE INFLAMMATION: In addition to improving your mental health, some studies suggest that practicing yoga may

2015 study divided 218 participants into two groups, those who practiced yoga regularly and those who didn’t. Similarly, a small 2014 study showed that 12 weeks of yoga reduced inflammatory markers in breast cancer survivors with persistent fatigue. Although more research is needed to confirm the beneficial efforts of yoga on inflammation, these findings indicate that it may help protect against certain diseases caused by chronic inflammation.
of the major contributors to heart disease. 4. COULD REDUCE CHRONIC PAIN:
Chronic pain is a persistent problem that affects millions of people and has a range of possible causes, from injuries to arthritis. There is a growing body of research demonstrating that practicing yoga could help reduce many types of chronic pain. In one study, 42 individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome either received a wrist splint or did yoga for eight weeks. At the end of the study, yoga was found to be 3.
