Posterior relations of the kidney

Many thanks to Keshav Acharya for sending this mnemonic.
Remember the posterior relations of the kidney with the mnemonic LM(N)OPQRST:
Lateral arcuate ligament,
Medial arcuate lig,
    (Nothing - Take a break :-)),
Psoas major,
Quadratus lumborum,
Rocky means diaphragm as diaphragm is like rock,
Subcoastal vessels,
Transverse abdominis.
