Mothers Day Spa Specials

Mothers Day Gifts for the Dignified Woman in Your Life   by Christina Martin

In shaping you up as an individual, your parents make most of the contributions. Isn’t it? Your Dad takes care that you get everything you desire in life, while your mother always teaches you to live without your desires being always fulfilled. It hurts sometimes, but as you grow up, you come to know how important it was for you to go through such experiences. Your mom’s teachings are harsh but the most important ones for you. Thus, you should always understand her significance in your life and try to make her feel special from time to time. Mothers Day gifts give you a chance to show how much love you have for your mom.

Some of the precious Mothers Day gifts are as follows:

• Women love to adorn themselves. Thus, you can buy some traditional or western outfits based on her preferences.
• Whether she is in her 30s or 60s, if you present jewelry to her on Mothers Day, she would delightfully accept it. It can be anything like earrings, nose ring, ring, bracelet etc.
• You will surely agree that your mom’s life is her family. Then why not present her Mothers Day gifts related to her life. A family photo calendar would be the best in that case.
• Your mamma cooks for you every day. Give her a nice surprise by preparing a dish that she likes. This will be one of the most special Mothers Day gifts for the most special lady in your life.
• If your mom loves to read, present her some books and magazines related to lifestyle, health, recipes, etc.
• A hobby-based present can also be perfect for your mother. If she likes to paint, canvas and color pencils would not be bad.
• A spa session would help her relax. Make her day special with her spa certificate.
• A photo collage with the best times of her life would be among the most precious Mothers day gifts. This collage can be filled with the pictures when she was born, got married, became a mother, etc.
• A family photo frame can also be given.
• A family outing would not be a bad idea when it comes to special Mothers Day gifts.

The above-mentioned presents are the ideas for moms that can be taken into consideration not only in case of Mothers day, but also during her birthdays and can also be preferred as the best Christmas gifts.

The Specials $16.78 A perfect moment in time captured on vinyl forever, such is the Specials’ eponymous debut album; it arrived in shops in the middle of October 1979 and soared into the U.K. Top Five. It was an utter revelation — except for anyone who had seen the band on-stage, for the album was at its core a studio recording of their live set, and at times even masquerades as a gig. There were some notable omissions: “Gangsters,” for one, but that had already spun on 45, as well as the quartet of covers that would appear on their live Too Much Too Young EP in the new year. But the rest are all here, 14 songs’ strong, mostly originals with a few covers of classics thrown in for good measure. That includes their fabulous take on Dandy Livingstone’s “A Message to You Rudy,” an equally stellar version of the Maytals’ “Monkey Man,” and the sizzling take on Prince Buster’s “Too Hot.” If those were fabulous, their own compositions were magnificent. The Specials managed to distill all the anger, disenchantment, and bitterness of the day straight into their music. The vicious “Nite Klub” — with its unforgettable line, “All the girls are slags and the beer tastes just like piss” — perfectly skewered every bad night the members had ever spent out on the town; “Blank Expression” extended the misery into unwelcoming pubs, while “Concrete Jungle” moved the action onto the streets, capturing the fear and violence that stalked the inner cities. And then it gets personal. “It’s Up to You” throws down the gauntlets to those who disliked the group, its music, and its stance, while simultaneously acting as a rallying cry for supporters. “Too Much Too Young” shows the Specials’ disdain for teen pregnancy and marriage; “Stupid Marriage” drags two such offenders before a Judge Dread-esque magistrate, with Terry Hall playing the outraged and sniping prosecutor; while “Little Bitch” is downright nasty. Those were polemics; “It Doesn’t Make It Alright” reaches a hand out to listeners and, with conviction, delivers up a heartfelt plea against racism, but even this number contains a sharp sting in its tail. It’s a bitter brew, aggressively delivered, with even the slower numbers sharply edged, and therefore the band wisely scattered sparkling covers across the album to help lift its mood. The set appropriately ends with the rocksteady-esque yearning of “You’re Wondering Now,” the song that invariably closed their live shows. Even though producer Elvis Costello gave the record a bright sound, it doesn’t lighten the dark currents that run through the group’s songs; if anything, his production heightens them. It’s left to guests Rico Rodriguez and Dick Cuthell to provide a little Caribbean sun to the Specials’ sound, their brass sweetening the flashes of anger and disaffection that sweep across the record. And so, this was Britain in late 1979, an unhappy island about to explode. This enhanced CD reissue includes the videos for “Gangsters” and “Too Much,” true must-see TV. ~ Jo-Ann Greene,

Specials, The $8.48 A satire of comic-book superheroes in the same vein as the 1999 Mystery Men, The Specials is set in a parallel universe where gangs of superheroes regularly compete against one another for glory or, failing that, flattering action-figure likenesses. The Specials are one of these gangs, and not a very good one at that. Composed of the Weevil (Rob Lowe), the group’s most popular member, Amok (Jamie Kennedy), a potty-mouthed shape-shifter, group leader Strobe (Thomas Haden Church), and the constantly growing or shrinking Minute Man (James Gunn), the Specials are more concerned with their image than in actually doing anything heroic. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi figures of the team.

More Specials [2002 Remaster] $11.18 Less frenzied than its predecessor, but more musically adventurous, More Specials was nearly as popular in its day as its predecessor, falling just one chart place below their debut. It kicked off in similar fashion as well, with a classic cover, this time with an exuberant take on Carl Sigman and Conrad Magidson’s 1940s chestnut “Enjoy Yourself.” A slower, brooding version with the Go-Go’s in tow brings the album to a close, taking the place of the set-sealing “You’re Wondering Now,” which brought the curtain down on their first set. But there the similarities come to an end. The rest of the album is comprised of originals, including a pair of instrumentals — the Northern soul-esque “Sock It to ‘Em JB” and the Mexican-flavored “Holiday Fortnight” — as well as a duo of minimally vocalized pieces, the intriguing “International Jet Set” and the overtly apocalyptic “Man at C&A.” But fans had already been primed for the band’s changingmusical directions by the release the month before of “Stereotypes,” its spaghetti-western aura filled with the group’s more mournful mood. It’s an emotional despair taken to even greater heights on “Do Nothing,” as the group futilely searches for a future, but musically stumbles upon a cheery, easygoing rhythm more appropriate to the pop styles of the English Beat than the angrier sounds the Specials had made their own. But to prove it’s no fluke, there’s the equally bright and breezy “Hey, Little Rich Girl,” boasting fabulous sax solos from Madness’ Lee Thompson. However, it’s an immortal line from “Pearl’s Cafe” that Terry Hall and the guesting Bodysnatcher Rhoda Dakar deliver up in duet that best sums up their own and the country’s pure frustration: “It’s all a load of bollocks, and bollocks to it all.” It was an intensely satisfying set in its day, even if it wasn’t as centered as their debut. The group seems to be moving simultaneously in too many directions, while the lyrics, too, are not quite as hard-hitting as earlier efforts. In retrospect, there’s no surprise that only “Enjoy Yourself” appeared regularly in the band and its related projects’ sets. Which may explain why this enhanced-CD reissue includes videos not of the album’s singles, but of the two hits not on the set, “Ghost Town” and “Rat Race.” ~ Jo-Ann Greene, Rovi Performers: Belinda – Vocals (Background); Dick Cuthell – Flugelhorn, Cornet; Horace Gentleman – Bass; Jerry Dammers – Organ, Piano; John Bradbury – Drums; Kix Thompson – Saxophone;
