Philip III (30 April 1245 – 5 October 1285), called the Bold (French: le Hardi),[1] was King of France from 1270 to 1285, a member of the House of Capet.

Philip proved indecisive, soft in nature, and timid. The strong personalities of his parents apparently crushed him, and policies of his father dominated him. People called him "the Bold" on the basis of his abilities in combat and on horseback and not on the basis of his political or personal character. He was piousbut not cultivated. He followed the suggestions of others, first of Pierre de La Broce and then of his uncle King Charles I of Naples, Sicily, and Albania.
His father, Louis IX, died in Tunis during the Eighth Crusade. Philip, who was accompanying him, came back to France to claim his throne and was anointed at Reims in 1271.
Philip made numerous territorial acquisitions during his reign, the most notable being the County of Toulouse which was annexed to the Crown lands of France in 1271. Following the Sicilian Vespers, a rebellion triggered by Peter III of Aragon against Philip's uncle Charles I of Naples, Philip led an unsuccessful Aragonese Crusade in support of his uncle. Philip was forced to retreat and died from dysentry in Perpignan in 1285. He was succeeded by his son Philip the Fair.

Bunker Busters I like a challenge, in this case it was keeping my toes dry whilst also getting close enough to get some wave action, i did have to dance a bit to keep the old sneakers dry. Gerry one, waves zero.

5 ways to avoid gaining weight in winter By Entertainment Desk

With the New Year around the corner, now is a perfect time to gather your thoughts and have some resolutions ready.
The temperature has dropped which means we’re all getting used to cosying up and munching away on the comfort food. And let’s be honest, it’s much easier to hide under a bunch of layers rather than brave the cold. The point is, all this is just a recipe for disaster – a recipe to put on more than a few kilos to be precise.
Compiled from SELF magazine, here are five ways to avoid piling on winter pounds…
You may be reluctant to spend your time in the outdoors but Marjorie Korn, SELF magazine‘s food and nutrition associate editor suggests that you get yourself out of bed and embrace the fresh air.
Being in Pakistan, we all have our reservations stepping out to exercise but a good walk in the morning or in the evening post work, in a family park (which is safe!) might do you wonders.
Take up running, slow walking, cycling or whatever floats your boat. It’s definitely better to burn those calories out in the nature rather than battling through those gym crowds. Research also shows that the refreshing burst of air will keep you wanting to go back.
2) Stock up on superfoods
If you don’t know already, some foods can actually help you loseweight. That’s right! Sweet potatoes or shakarqandi (which is very much in season!) contain a lot of fibre thus make you feel fuller longer.
Another is kale – the trendiest leafy green out there and also the most nutritious. If you have difficulty finding kale, go for good old spinach or paalak. And make apples your best friends because they are absolute stars.
 3) Low-calorie alternatives
Nothing hits the spot quite like a hearty scoop of gaajar ka halwa. However, you don’t have to deny yourself this ‘luxury’, thanks to low-calorie alternatives.
Try using skimmed milk, brown sugar and low-fat ingredients to be able to enjoy your favourite comfort foods (or yummy desserts) without the guilt eating you up!
4) Have an eating plan
People can freak out and set themselves up for disaster,” states Korn. It’s okay to have those gulab jamun during this festive season “but to make sure you don’t overdo it you should be prepared to eat breakfast in the morning to get your metabolism going.  Also, try exercisng before the feast as it will influence the way you feel and the way you think about food,” says Korn.
She continued, “Pick and choose which proteins and carbs you reallywant and wait 20 minutes before grabbing seconds to see if you’re really still hungry.”
5) Don’t stress
From weddings galore to family reunions, there’s no doubt this busy time of year can be utterly stressful which ends up taking a physical toll on us. Stressing makes your body hold onto fat and your hunger hormone levels rise.
Korn provided some easy steps to fight this season’s stress. “Ready yourself with answers to all those awkward questions about work, love life and anything that could be uncomfortable,” she says.
“And remember to rest. Getting a solid night’s sleep is crucial. You’ll definitely combat stress and make better food choices after catching enough sleep.”
