James May from Top Gear rides in a U-2 spy plane
See my 'Non-Fighter Planes & Choppers' playlist to watch the full "James May at the Edge of Space" show which also contains this footage. In this BBC special "James May on the Moon", James May from Top Gear UK is taken on an emotional ride to the edge of space in a U-2 spyplane. The score is "Flight" by Ty Unwin which wasn't available separately last time I checked. I took this version from the Patricks Aviation file sharing site - well worth a look. www.patricksaviation.com

Pain in the Butt Part 3
Article by Glen Wood - The Yoga Teacher
Hip bursitis - The stretching exercises appropriate for people with bursitis of the hip include cross leg pulls and outer thigh stretches. MUSCLE TONING EXERCISES - Muscle toning exercises may be recommended for people with hip pain who have required prolonged bed rest, been in a cast, or have been inactive. Straight leg raises -These exercises are performed while sitting on the edge of a chair or while lying down. With improved strength, these exercises can be performed with a 5 to 10 pound weight placed at the ankle. After 3 to 4 weeks, the difficulty of the exercise can be increased by adding a 5 to 10 pound weight to the ankle. Poor blood supply, and to some extent poor blood quality- due to diet- can make this worse, being over weight, failing to exercise and poor posture all contribute. The exercises must be gentle ones, designed to work the joint and muscles but not stress them. This form of yoga is not only eminently suited to the restrictions of a hip prosthesis, but it is perfect for keeping up strength, flexibility and cardiovascular fitness when hard -impact exercise cannot be performed.
Conclusion
This yoga pose will help you, a variation of the Pigeon Pose.
So we are going to take pigeon pose with a bit of a support, a blanket. And we are going to show you one way to come into the pose. So we can start from a Downward Dog, this is the more difficult version, and he will take his leg up toward the sky -- again, moving those pelvic halves separately -- and then swing the leg up and over the blanket. The blanket is here for support and if your hips are tight, you can add two or three blankets, as many as you need, so that you can actually relax into them.
A couple of things that you need to be aware. Aim to bring the forward foot through so the heel is under the hip, if you are unable to do this do what you can, it will improve with time and patience. At the same time with the extended leg behind you aim to rotate that hip forward to level the pelvic/hip area. When you are starting off just see if you can place your body over the forward leg with your hands on the floor so you are getting a 'double' stretch. Imagine that your hands are on the floor with your body extended and your fingers splayed.
