A plumber is one whose job is to ensure that you are not standing in knee-deep water after every trip to the bathroom or every washing day, or every hour of dish washing. In a building, there are many systems in place and the system of drainage, drinking water, pipe work for heating and cooling systems, and other water pipes and these all come under the domain of the plumber.

For effective execution of all work under the banner of plumbing, a plumber has to hold a valid license. He must have a thorough knowledge of all the practical and theoretical aspects of the job. A good grasp of math, science and English helps. This job requires one to be ready to work whenever called, in cramped, often dirty places. Duct fixing, mechanical services, gas fitting, sanitary problems, water supply, roofing and draining are some of the main areas of expertise. To get a license, one has to have the requisite number of years in practical experience and pay the fees and the necessary insurance cover. References are needed from previous and current employers as well as the plumber under whom apprenticeship was completed.

The plumbing code gives a broad spectrum idea of the best and most modern methods of carrying out plumbing operations. Licenses ensure that only capable individuals are given the responsibility. Inspection and permits ensure that work is completed as per regulations.

In a house, plumbing constitutes almost 15% of the value of the house. It has to an efficient system. Drains, toilets, tubes, floor drains, fittings, faucets, compression faucets, kitchen sinks, lavatory bowls and bathtubs, water closets, tanks, shower equipment, water heaters, and pipes all come within the ambit of a plumbers job.

An efficient plumbing system in your home ensures good health for everyone and goes a long way in protecting the environment. A knowledgeable plumber makes sure the plumbing is as efficient as can be.

Choosing the right putter can be the most important decision you make when it comes to your equipment. In fact, the putter is the club you use the most. Choosing the right one is like choosing a best friend. A few basic considerations to keep in mind when you are making such an important decision have to do with the bottom section or the "head" of the putter. this is where the brains of the putter are. There are other factors to consider such as the length and the grip but the brains of your best friend will be the most important part of choosing the right putter. Before looking at all of these considerations, let us first consider the most important part of this club known as the "head" of the putter.

The head is the most important part of the putter because it is the place where your ball will make contact on the green. The material in the head affects the way the ball moves and its direction across the green. Cheap or "dumb" putters are usually made of lighter plastic, zinc or aluminum. The lighter material requires you to hit the ball even harder on the green and allows for more mistakes. "Smart", quality putters will usually incorporate stainless steel, titanium or brass. They can also have some wood mixed in or can be made of a combination of these other materials to create a more solid head. The difference will be felt when you hit the ball. On a slow green, the ball will move a lot easier. On a fast green, it will seem that you hardly have to hit it at all.

Perimeter weighting and Lie-angle - Two other important considerations in the head of the putter are perimeter weighting and lie-angle. Perimeter weighting has to do with the size and shape of the head. If you look, you will see a recess in the center of the head. This recess makes it possible for the weight of the head to be distributed in the toe and the heel which is preferable. The other important factor is the lie-angle in the putter head. This tells you whether the putter is sitting flat against the ground when you hold it. Put yourself in your most comfortable stance and ask the salesman to check this for you. If the putter head is not sitting flat against the ground, you may need to have it adjusted.

length and grip - Two final things to consider in a putter are the length and the grip. The standard length of a putter is thirty-five inches. If you tend to stand upright, you may want it longer. If you bend over a lot, a shorter putter may be necessary. There are also various grips to consider so that a golfer with smaller hands may need a smaller diameter grip and vice versa. Most importantly, choose a putter that looks and feels comfortable to you because this is going to be your best friend! With these considerations in mind, you will know that you have definitely chosen the right putter for you.

Even though the world population has shifted from mainly rural to mainly urban in the last decade, there are still lots of folks like me who live in the sticks. Doing things like taking a yoga class becomes a different thing in our case from driving to the neighborhood gym. Since I live 40 miles from the nearest town large enough for yoga studios, when I decided to take a class, I was more interested in the schedule than I was the type of yoga. I couldn't afford to be picky if I preferred not to wait around for a couple hours after getting off work. So I looked in the phone book, and didn't pay attention to anything but the schedule. There it was: M-W-F at 4:00. Perfect. I don't know what rock I'd been living under, but the word "Bikram" writ large across the ad in the yellow pages didn't trigger the term 'hot yoga' in my mind, and that left me in for a big surprise.

I showed up with a comfy pair of sweatpants and a long- sleeved t-shirt. As the woman at the desk was giving me a little orientation information - explaining that the room was heated to about 100 degrees Fahrenheit - I realized that my concept of yoga clothes weren't going to work here. Apparently, I wasn't the first to make this error. Susie told me they had loaners. Now, it's been a while since the last time I wore hot-pants, so when she handed me the little scrap of shorts, I thought, "No way." She said, "Trust me, you'll fit right in."

Susie continued, giving a few more orientation tips, which started to seem like a set of warnings. "Our first-time students are encouraged to rest whenever you feel you should - kind of take it gradually. The instructors just ask that you do your best to stay in the room for the entire time." What? Were we still talking yoga here? I'd seen pictures. Sure, I might not be able to balance on one leg while holding the other one over my head at my first try, but come on. How hard could it be to stretch as far as I could go and stop there? Why would I get desperate to leave the room?

Her next suggestion: "OK, I see you brought a bottle of water. That's good, but you'll be tempted to drink a lot, and I recommend you just drink sips - not too much at a time." Hmm. What was I getting into here? It sounded like I was facing some kind of ordeal - not what I had in mind at all since I was thinking of yoga as a peaceful, low- impact way just to stretch and keep my aging body flexible and strong.

Once I was dressed in the little bit of shorts, I opened the door to the yoga studio and was met with a rush of hot, stultifying air. Oh goody. I walked to an open space, spread my mat, lay on my back, and understood exactly what she meant by asking me to at least stay in the room. I was already dripping sweat, and we hadn't even begun the class.

Ninety minutes and twice through the 26 poses later, I was indeed still in the room. In the non-competitive, supportive atmosphere I had been completely guided to go to my edge, but not so far that I would be turned off by struggle. In fact, I was exhilarated. I lay on my back at the end, eyes closed in the peaceful, very hot room, and knew I'd be back for more.

Who knew back then in the 1920s that the national football League would take the path to become what it has? In the 1920s, a group of businessman and sports enthusiasts from the middle of America gathered in canton, ohio in a car showroom to discuss and strategize how they would take pro-football from a disorderly, ruthless game of disgrace to that of an organized league.

It is during this meeting in canton in the showroom where the men defined rules, traded ideas, elected a board. The new league would be called the american professional football association.

From the wooden, dusty arenas of the midwest including Hammond, indiana, Akron, ohio, and Rock island, illinois to the Duluth Eskimos in 1926 to super Bowl 111 where joe namath and the AFLs New york Jets displaced the nfl old guard.

In 1932, the first nfl championship game was played indoors on 80-yard field. While a lot about the game has evolved since the 1920s, the emotion and pain of the football game remains the same.

Following are stretches which can be used after a game of golf to help prevent getting sore and to also improve flexibility. Remember to hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds if you want to see a fast improvement in your flexibility. And if it hurts "Stop!"

Note: Read all instructions carefully before attempting any of these exercises & breath through your nose for all of the stretches.

1. KERB STRETCH

An effective way to stretch your calf muscles is to use a piece of wood or a step. stand with the balls of your feet on the edge of the step and let your heels drop towards the floor, feeling the stretch in the calf and breathing easily through your nose. I find it best to perform this exercise with both feet at the same time, but you can do it with one leg at a time if you prefer.

2. STANDING QUADRICEPS STRETCH

Stand behind a chair. Hold on to the back of a chair with your left hand for support and raise your lower right leg. Now reach behind yourself with your right arm and get hold of your raised right leg. Next gently ease your right foot towards your buttocks. You will feel the stretch along the front of the thigh. Repeat on the other side breathing easily through your nose.

And I must say I had difficulty at first performing this exercise and if you do to I suggest you initially begin the exercise with the knee of the supporting leg flexed slightly. Once you are stretching you can then gradually try to straighten your support leg to increase the stretch. It is important to keep good posture all throughout this stretch.

3. LYING HAMSTRING STRETCH

Lie on your back for this exercise. Now flex your knees on about a 90 angle. Get hold of your left leg behind the thigh with both hands and straighten your right leg so it is resting on the floor. Now pull your left leg towards your chest trying to get it as close as possible. You will feel the stretch along the back of the flexed thigh. Repeat with the other leg.

4. STANDING HAMSTRING STRETCH

Stand up for this exercise. Now flex your knees and bend from your hips until you can easily rest your chest on your thighs. Now reach your arms around your legs and give them a hug. From this position, try to straighten your legs as much as possible, while still keeping your chest firmly pressed against your thighs.

You will soon feel the stretch along the backs of your thighs. Let go of this stretch by slowly flexing your knees. Remember to breathe through your nose when completing this, and not only this exercise, but all the others as well.

5. STANDING HIP AND THIGH STRETCH

Stand in front of a chair or stool. Raise one of your feet up onto the chair or stool, and then ease your body towards this foot so that your chest and thigh come closer together. Keep your spine and back leg straight and try to keep your shoulders down away from your ears. Move as far forward as possible and then hold this position.

You will feel the stretch along the front of the thigh of the extended leg, and along the back of the thigh of the raised leg. Repeat on the other side and remember to breathe!

6. LYING GROIN STRETCH

Lie flat on the floor. East your legs up towards your body and place the soles of your feet together and let your knees ease out sideways. You will feel the stretch along the insides of your thighs and groin.

7. SEATED GROIN STRETCH

Sit for this exercise and ease your legs up towards your body and place the soles of your feet together. Now let your knees fall out and down towards the floor. You can place your hands on your knees to increase your stretch or you can use them to keep yourself stable while doing this exercise.

8. SIDEWAYS NECK STRETCH

You can stand or sit to do this exercise. Also ensure you keep your shoulders down away from your ears when doing this exercise. Tilt your head to one side trying to place your ear on your shoulder. Repeat on the other side. You can increase this stretch by gently using a hand to increase the weight on your neck. But be careful do not pull your head, you could cause injuries to yourself.

9. UPPER BACK STRETCH

You can choose to sit or stand for this exercise. Interlock your fingers and push your hands as far away from your chest as possible so your palms are facing away from you. Tilt your head down and look at the ground. And make sure your upper back is straight and as relaxed as possible doing this stretch. You will feel the stretch between your shoulder blades.

10. CHEST STRETCH

Once again you can do this stretch while seated or standing. Place your hands behind you and place them on your lower back. Now squeeze your elbows towards each other while keeping your spine straight. You will feel the stretch in the front of the chest.

11. FRONT SHOULDER STRETCH

As with the previous exercise you can do this one sitting or standing. I prefer to do them standing. Place your hands behind you and interlock your fingers, then straighten your arms and try to lift them upwards and backwards as far as possible. Try to keep your back straight and long, with your shoulders down away from your ears. You will feel the stretch in the front of the chest.

Your Destiny Number, which describes all of the talents and potentials that are at your disposal in this lifetime, is calculated from the letters that compose your full birth name. This is not your married name, but rather the name that is found written in full on your birth certificate. If your name is misspelled on your birth certificate, use that to configure your destiny number.

The interpretations of your Destiny Number below are an indication of the things that you need to live up to or accomplish in this lifetime. Unlike the Life path Number, which is more about your limitations due to your ancestry or physicality, this calculation offers you a glimpse of what opportunities should be available to you as you travel the Life Path. The value of your Destiny Number is that it shows you what you are truly capable of or what you should look for when it comes to realizing your highest potential.

To calculate your Destiny number treat each of your names separately and add up the values according to the conversion chart below.

A J S 1--- B K T 2--- C L U 3--- D M V 4--- E N W 5--- F O X 6--- G P Y 7--- H Q Z 8--- I R 9

For instance if your name is Britney Jean Spears your numbers would add up and reduce to

Britney 2+9+9+2+5+5+7 = 39

3+9 = 11

1+1=2

Jean 1+5+1+5 = 12

1+2 = 3

Spears 1+7+5+1+9+1 = 24

2+4 = 6

You would then add up the three sums that represent each of the three names. In Britney Spear's case, the equation is:

2+3+6 = 11

All double digits are reduced to a single number by adding them together. Britney is a master number 11. However for the purposes of the destiny reading her double-digit number would also be reduced to:

1+1 = 2.

As Britney is both an 11 and a 2, she would read both interpretations as outlined below.

INTERPRETATIONS OF THE DESTINY NUMBER

Destiny Number 1

A 1's talents include originality, creativity and the ability to launch plans into motion. They have the potential to become very prosperous as a result of applying these skills. Socially or professionally, a number 1 is the person that makes "things happen."

Number 1's are also great business people and entrepreneurs. This is because of their prodigious ambition and determination. Their strong confidence and self-reliance allows them to forge business relationships that last a lifetime.

Sometimes they suffer from impatience, as they fear being left behind either socially or professionally. They may also act too hastily because they are afraid of being left out of the loop.

This is an aggressive number and often its potential is truncated by over assertiveness and a tendency to dominate conversations. A 1's best route to success is to learn how to be patient and tolerant of other people's ideas.

Destiny Number 2

Number 2's are mediators and peacemakers. They seem to function best in a group. Usually it is a number 2 who is the power behind the throne.

A 2's strengths lie in the ability to pull strings behind the scenes. Number 2's usually land in high paying jobs as facilitators and team leaders. They are often untouchable in corporate situations because they are so valuable to the head of the outfit.

Their courtesy and diplomacy usually earns them many friends. It is usually a number 2 who wins popularity contests, much to his or her humble surprise. 2's are also very modest and willing to credit others for his or her success.

Some number 2s can be a bit shy and a bit too eager to please. The key to a 2's success is to not let others take advantage of them. If anything, number 2's are so generous, few of them bother to stand up for themselves in an unjust situation. However, they make so many friends, usually they are saved by an individual eager to return one of the number 2's many favors.

Destiny Number 3

Those born with Number 3 as their destiny number excel at all persuasive talents. These include writing, speaking, singing, acting, litigating, and teaching selling, designing and composing music.

3's excel at selling themselves. Number 3's often photograph well and usually have beautiful voices.

One often-unexploited talent of a number 3 is their natural ability to uplift others with their words and ideas. Their true purpose in life is to inspire and motivate others with their wonderful sense of faith and optimism.

Sometimes Number 3s have a tendency to be shallow or superficial. To be successful they need to resist a temptation to gossip about others or create unnecessary dramas. Often they do this because they are bored. They are best to save their dramatic talents for the stage, podium or silver screen.

Destiny Number 4

Number 4s thrive best in a corporate environment. Their unique skills are administration, project management and all kinds of organization. They are highly systematic by nature and respected for their willingness to work long hours to get a project done.

Number 4'salso make excellent surgeons, architects, engineers, musicians and teachers. They work well with their hands and have an innate understanding of structure, design and rhythm.

Unfortunately, Number 4s rarely get anything handed to them on a silver platter, but the universe does amply reward them for their efforts. Hard work and determination are the keys to a number 4's success, no matter what their circumstances.

A block to prosperity that sometimes manifests with number 4's is a tendency to be too rigid or dogmatic in their thinking. They are black and white thinkers with strong likes and dislikes. When it comes to making the most of what you are born with, 4's do best when they consider the "gray areas" and cultivate tolerance, patience and acceptance.

Destiny Number 5

Versatile number 5's are usually born with many talents and abilities. They often awe others with their competence in all areas of life. These masters of flexibility and change are also great innovators and inventors. Their quick wit and charm often makes them very popular socially.

5's make great marketing and advertising executives as well as real estate and travel agents. They are born with a natural ability to "sell ice to an Eskimo." A 5 that is stuck in a pedestrian job where they are not allowed to practice their incredible talents of persuasion is usually a very unhappy camper.

These clever and observant individuals also make great stand-up comedians and performers. As they are adventurous and risk-takers, number 5s also thrive best as a freelancers or business owners.

Sometimes these intelligent people bore so easily that it is difficult for them to stay in any one occupation or career for too long. The Number 5's key to success is learning how to follow through and finish one thing before they start another. They should also resist the temptation to be too glib, as it causes others not to take them seriously.

Destiny Number 6

Number 6's are born diplomats who can restore balance to any disharmonious situation. Many of them are natural healers and excel as doctors, nurses, psychologists, counselors, babysitters and any occupation that involves taking care of the elderly, the sick or the poor.

These exceptional individuals are born with an innate talent of uplifting the spirits of others, especially during hard times. Some of them do this through service and others accomplish this through art, music or writing. Whether they are conscious of it or not, their destiny is often to restore faith in hearts that are broken.

Number 6's are very concerned with family and children, and many of them feel unfulfilled in life if they don't get the chance to raise a family. If you are a Number 6 you have a lot to offer the world in terms of the often-unappreciated task of parenting. No other number understands the mind of a child better.

Number 6's can sabotage their success by being too demanding of themselves. Many of them have bad childhoods that cause them to grow up with a severe inner critic that constantly tells them that they are not good enough. The key to a number 6's success is to be as loving, caring and respectful of themselves as they are too others.

Destiny Number 7

Those born with a number 7 Destiny number tend to be thoughtful introverts who treasure privacy and seclusion. They prefer to be invisible in a crowd and make excellent detectives and defenders of the law. Their acute power of observation also leads many of them to careers in research and science.

Although they are deeply analytical, and sometimes even skeptical, many number 7's have a secret passion for pursuing some aspect of neuro-linguistics, the occult, social anthropology or religion. Many of them are great armchair philosophers who spend a lot of time thinking about the nature of existence and truth.

Number 7's can appear to be cold and withdrawn to others, as they are not very expressive e with their hands or facial movements. They also believe in saying as little as possible, as to them that is more of an expression of power and dignity than wearing one's heart on their sleeve.

Many 7's are so brilliant that they can't help but come off to others as hopeless eccentrics. The 7's key to success is to make sure that they take the time and energy to spend some time outside their fascinating minds and connect to other people.

Their best way to express emotion is to write their feelings down on paper and show it to others.

Destiny Number 8

Those born with the Destiny number 8 are fated to make money during their lifetime. They have the potential for considerable achievement in business or other powerful positions, however many of them are simply born into wealthy families.

Number 8's are also very practical and seem to have a knack for building and accumulating wealth. For this reason they make excellent bankers, stockbrokers and accountants. A downside to this is that sometimes their desire to acquire more money becomes a burning desire that causes them to ignore family, friends and social life.

Although it seems that Number 8's have it easy, much of their success is due to their sound judgment when it comes to money and commercial matters. 8's are also excellent judges of character and do not suffer fools gladly.

The key to a Number 8's success is to always remember to count one's blessings. As this can be a very materialistic and ambitious sign, their greed and status-consciousness can destroy their intimate relationships. Number 8's should also watch out for making false friends who are only attracted to their money or power. As they are so successful, they are often the targets of back stabbers, so they should choose their confidantes wisely.

Destiny Number 9

Number 9's destiny often lies within the sphere of humanitarian causes. They make excellent teachers, counselors and priests. Nines are not very career driven and are born with an innate understanding of human nature.

These kind, considerate and compassionate individuals are often also blessed with literary or artistic gifts as well. However, as many of them are so driven to help the world and solve humanity's problems, they don't get around to expressing their artistic talents until very late in life. This is a shame because it is the number 9s who have created the most inspirational and uplifting written and visual material.

9's are idealists who believe the most valuable tool for change is to put wisdom into practice. A 9 rarely develops a personal ambition that also does not include an interest in people and bettering the world. Friendships and love are much more important to a 9 than career, or even a 9's own survival.

Some 9's take their idealism to the point that they are always bitter and disappointed by others' reaction to their philanthropic works. In order to live up to his or her highest potential, a 9 must take care not to be carried away by principles as this can lead to aloofness and pride. To stay on track, 9's must always remember to forgive human beings for being so fallible.

Destiny Number 11

Number 11's are conduits of spiritual information that often feel a great need to transform the world with their visions. This master number often sets goals for himself or herself that are almost impossible to live up to.

11's have an innate spiritual strength and acute awareness of others that often has a positive transformative effect on other people's lives. They often display a positive and upbeat attitude that others find contagious. Their ability to inspire others makes them excellent teachers, social workers, philosophers and advisors.

This deeply intuitive sign is also very interested in occult, religious or supernatural matters. Many of them are born psychic and at some point in their life become priests, nuns, tarot readers, astrologers, metaphysicians, light-workers, channellers and reiki masters. Usually they are propelled on the spiritual path after taking a hard fall after a period of fantastic success very early in their life.

The strain of being so omniscient often deteriorates the delicate nervous systems of number 11's that fit the profile of the "wounded healer." practices such as yoga and meditation keep the flighty number 11's feet on the ground.

Destiny Number 22

Usually the destiny of a 22 is to become a leader of some kind in their field, whether it is politics, law, medicine or the entertainment industry. Even as children, 22's usually display a sense of direction, wisdom and talent that is far beyond their years.

The number 22 is called the Master Builder because they are capable of manifesting great changes on the earthly plane. They usually do this through the construction of some kind of empire, whether it is of a social, financial or religious nature.

22's are very balanced individuals who seem to lead charmed lives. This is because they are born with a keen sense of judgment as well a practical sense that allows them to "beat the odds." They are masters of manifestation who know how the power of a negative thought or image can destroy potential.

22's have very few negative qualities, but if they do self-sabotage their success it is because they become spoiled by constantly getting their own way. A 22 needs to realize that even a run of their bad luck would be perceived by other numbers to be a lucky streak. As they are often the focus of a lot of attention, 22's also need to make sure that their own PR does not carry them away. This can lead to a disconnection from others as well as a detachment from the 22's original mission, which is to create facilities, systems and structures that improve the world.

Destiny Number 33

A name that reduces down to Destiny number of 33 is very rare. Usually this marks an individual a being destined for some great purpose in life, usually of a religious or military nature.

Number 33's are usually enlightened individuals who are fated to sacrifice their entire life for the sake of a principle or an idea. For this reason many become world-renowned spiritual or political leaders who dedicate their lives to spiritual enlightenment.

On the down side, some 33's are born to express the shadow side of the collective consciousness of mankind. Their emergence into positions of power and public life is often to demonstrate the potentiality of evil to the world. For this reason, the destiny number 33 can also create a serial killer, a tyrant or a malevolent cult leader.

hether for good or for evil, the destiny of a 33 is usually to transform the world's perception of morality and spirituality, whether it is through direct teachings or inspiration or the provocation of a reaction to a tragic event.
