The south of Spain; better known as Andalusia; is a beautiful area of the country, draped in culture and history that will blow your mind. Whether it's the stunning coast that draws you in, or the history of conquests which have left their mark on Andalusian cities that you prefer, this is the perfect place to call home and study Spanish. Our institution is based in Granada, one of the most cherished cities in the south, being historically fought over by monarchs and dynasties.
Granada's history is one filled with different owners and conquerors. It was the last city to be held under the Moors' rule, until the Moors were defeated in 1492 by Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile, the King and Queen at the time! Granada was pivotal for the unification of Spain as we know it today, and therefore many of these historical events are celebrated and exposed in museums across the city. The beautiful Alhambra is also situated in Granada, showcasing the lavish lifestyles of Moorish leaders and royalty. However, just taking a walk through the city will unveil the blend of Islamic culture and Catholicism. The charming streets of Alcaicería reveal many chic stores and Arab style markets. This is a city you cannot miss.
Our school in Granada is situated in a peaceful neighbourhood, yet is not outside the city giving you the best of both worlds. The school welcomes roughly 800 students a year, offering you the perfect opportunity to make friends and meet people from all over the world. Our spacious classrooms are in a typical Andalusian style building, with a large indoor patio to chill out in outside of classes here. The school belongs to FEDELE (Federation of Schools of Spanish as a Foreign Language) and to EEA (Spanish in Andalusia), certifying our high quality standard of teaching and training.

The horsemen that lead your trek are as important as safe, strong, stable and reliable horses. They know the personalities of their horses inside and out, they stay close to you if you are insecure, let you be independent if you prove yourself to be a good rider, set up camp for you, make your bedding, cook your food, sing you mountain songs, boil water for your coffee and tea, drink moonshine with you if you like and generally are salt of the earth, rough and ready guys that live very hard lives but are full of laughs and smiles if you give then half a chance. A horseman/groom/stable lad is called a mǎ fū 马夫 in Chinese, (the name also means pimp or procurer!) and we had 11 along on this trip. They were great guys and kept us safe and happy the entire time. They were especially attentive to the needs and safety of the children.
The youngest one (not this guy, who said hardly a word the entire trek!) was teased and taunted by the other younger horsemen, one of the mafu looked just like David Niven with a thin moustache (sv. "tangorabatt"), one of them suffered from terrible asthma and weezed up and down the mountains, but also smoked cigarettes. The two oldest men - 59 and 60+ - were quiet and sage about everything; the muslims mock chided the Tibetans often about how quarrelsome and problematic they were as an ethnic group, but reassured us that in the Songpan area the different peoples just tried to get along without too much trouble. Songpan has a very strong muslim presence and in the past centuries horrible, murderous fighting has gone on between the two dominant groups. The muslims in our group gladly drank wine and spirits but were very firm (all the horsemen actually) that we absolutely not let any of our pork sausages come near their cooking pots or into the cookhouse.
The oldest horseman, 60 something.
Break in the sunshine while the tea water is boiling. The horseman to the right took every breaktime to catch a lie-down.
Most Tibetan men in the countryside carry knifes. In the larger cities this is usually not allowed although many still do. Since the troubles last year all knifes in the Tibetan shops in our street in Chengdu have been taken away and are not allowed to be sold (even small pocket knifes). This horseman is carrying a beautiful knife, probably a family heirloom, handcrafted in silver.
Our horsemen all live in villages around Songpan. The horses we were riding were their own horses and the mafu's ages ranged from around 19 to somewhere just over 60 yrs old. Most of them were Tibetans, the rest Hui Muslim and even a few Han Chinese. When they are not working for the horse trekking company they are farmers or herdsmen. They split the horsetrekking fee about 50/50 with the trekking company and when there are lots of tourists (i.e. no earthquakes or political problems that close off the Songpan area to travelers, particularly foreigners), they can make a fairly decent wage if they work many treks a season. None of them wore proper footwear (in our eyes) usually only simple sneaker boots or leather shoes. They had on thin jackets and coats, easily ran up and down the mountains if needed, slept around the mess campfire at night and were up early in the morning, cooking, gathering firewood, getting drinking water and calling down the horses from the mountains.
This horseman (the same guy as the first shot above), 59 years old, was severely kicked in the foot by his horse on day 2. Bob L is a doctor and is inspecting his swollen foot for any serious damage. All the other horsemen were very curious and as soon as they knew there was a doctor in the group they gathered around, helped interpret (from Chinese into Tibetan) and one even showed a cut finger and shyly asked for a band-aid.
My horseman Meng Jun and me upon arriving back in Songpan. His name means "Mongolian Soldier" and he is a Hui muslim. He has been riding horses since he was four years old, now he is 24, married and has a 4 month old little girl. He's a great guy and was sort of the leader of the mafu, probably because of both his leadership ability and that he could speak both standard Chinese (some of the Tibetans only spoke rudimentary putonghua), a little English and could communicate well with all the ethnic groups among the horseman. An all-round great guy.
At the end of the second day he and I raced our horses back to camp at breakneck speed. I won but I have an inkling that Meng Jun just might have let me win on his lead horse Blackie. When the others got back to camp all the horsemen and my kids gave me the "ultimate awesomeness" riding award. I felt elated afterwards but also glad I didn't fall and break every bone in my body. Not to be recommended!

Diwali 2017 Pictures (Part 2)
img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1488″ src="https://jyotirmoytheone.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/img_37551.jpg" alt="IMG_3755″ width="3648″ height="2736″ />
img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1488″ src="https://jyotirmoytheone.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/img_37551.jpg" alt="IMG_3755″ width="3648″ height="2736″ />
This one is must, I mean the preparation of fish head but this size will not work…at least two times larger than this one is much needed.
Fish head will never lose its priority but with time mutton also has got a place with fish head…yes, yes mutton, not chicken, chicken is cheaper than mutton, so if mutton is not served it can leave a bad impact (Lesser amount of love and respect).
What about other dishes?….there must be minimum five different dishes of different vegetables along with all these there should be sweets, fruits and curd.
The arrangement is so huge (and a must one) that a normal human being can't take all the foods in a day but it must be done.
Dhoti Punjabi!!!! O ho, who wears this dress now a day…it's an old fashion, so this dress has lost its dignity and jeans-t-shirts have taken this place.
Same thing has happened with umbrella also…rain coat is much user friendly, so umbrella also has lost its pride and rain coat has taken that place.
Yesterday I visited a watch shop to get our wall clock, that wall clock suddenly stopped working and after checking the clock I realized that it needs a replacement of the machine, so few days ago I given to a repair shop and yesterday I had to bring it.
When I entered the shop there were already two customers present, a girl, hardly of age 30 with her mother, they were buying a wrist watch, seeing their dress one can easily understand that their financial condition is not good at all, but they had to buy a good wrist watch, seeing them in shop I realized that the mother was buying the watch for her son-in-law, it's a gift from the in-laws house.
Exactly This design they have bought.
It was tough for them to expend 500 rupees, their financial condition does not support it but they are bound to it, it's not only about the watch they also have to arrange various types of foods (Mentioned above)
Jamai Shashthi is a Bengali ritual when son-in-laws get king like treatment from their in-laws house; it's an age old ritual and still existing with all its glory and as I feel this ritual reflects that our society is still a patriarchal society.
Is there any ritual when the girls gets Queen like treatment from their in-laws houses? Whenever it's about the girls the first thing comes first is fasting…whether it's Kaurva Chauth or Shivratri.
Men do not seek best welfare for their wives? if they seek so then they must also go for whole day of fasting and offering Pujas to certain Gods-Goddesses but unfortunately it cant be seen.
If worshiping certain deities after a whole day of fasting…you can wish good for someone…then why only these rituals are for the girls and not for the boys?
Shasthi…Is a religious ritual named after Semi-Goddess Maa Shasthi who is worshiped by the mothers for the well being of their children, during this Puja every mother have to go for half-fasting(Rice and Flours can't be taken, depends upon the tradition of the family). There were no existence of giving king like treatment to the son-in-laws in this particular day, in ancient time the parents (Specially the mother) of a girl were not allowed to visit the in-laws of the girl and the girls were also not allowed to visit her paternal house until she become pregnant, so later the dictators has made this ritual named "Jamai Shahthi" when the girl will visit her paternal house with her husband and that husband will get king like treatment.
So here lies the differences…The girls (Mothers) will fast and the boys (Men) will rejoice the day with sumptuous feast
Har Har Mahadev
Do you know the "Tandav Nritya"?
let me tell you in short…when Dakhsyaraj insulted Lord Shiva, Sati(another form of Parvati) could not bear the incident and sacrificed her life in the same Yagna(fire worship ritual) performed by her own father(Dakshyaraj),for this incident Lord Shiva lost control over himself and became so angry that he started the Tandava Nritya(Dance of Destruction) taking Sati on his shoulder…so this is all about Tandava Nritya.
So happened next?
Seeing the destructive dance of Lord Shiva lord Vishnu realized that the creation is at a stake, so he hit upon a plan to preserve the creation and using Sudarshan Chakra he cut the body of Sati gradually, the different of Sati's body fell in different places and termed as Satis pith or "Shakti Pith", today I visited of them that is Bakreswar where the eyebrow of Sati fell.
It is certain that where is Sati there must Lord Shiva around…no exception here.
This is the mythological story of Bakreswar.
In the day of Shivratri and on the Mondays of the month Shravana(June-July) large numbers of pilgrimages visit this place to worship Lord Shiva, after taking bath in the hot spring they visit the temple and perform Puja. The crowd is really noticeable, a fair is also held during Shivratri and in the month of Shravana(considered as the worshiping month of Lord Shiva)
entrance of bathing Place…
Taking Bath before Puja…
There are separate accommodation for bathing for gents and Ladies with clean and clear room for change.
There two more interesting things can be seen here…
Natural Hot Spring
The most interesting thing that can be seen here is the natural hot spring, which is existing for long years and still in the same form, the temperature of this spring is approx. 66 degree Celsius, so far I have come to know that the Helium gas under the earth surface of this place is coming out for several years and making the spring hot. The surprising fact is if you throw rice here they will not be boiled.
It is said that…before the earthquake the water of this spring start to vibrate and seeing this the local people easily understand that an earthquake will take place very soon.
Cremation Ground
another interesting fact that can herd here is about the cremation ground….it is said that the burning of dead bodies never stop here, I heard 8 years back, then again 6 years back when I visited with my maternal uncle and aunty, then again heard three years back and now again.
New addition of this place is the 10 feet long Shiva linga of white marble that has brought from Croesia…
Many small sized temples can be seen here out of the boundary of the min temple, now a days they are fighting enough to exist
Now the Main Gate of the Temple
this is the way to enter the temple of Maa Parvati
How to Reach:-
Bakreswar is in the district of Birbhum(West Bengal), in between Suri, the district town and Dubrajpur. Buses are available from Suri and Dubrajpur and its average 40minutes bus ride from both the places.
STC buses from Kolkata and trains are available from Howrah to Suri and its always better to visit Bakreswar through Suri if you are coming from Kolkata coz you cant reach Dubrajpur directly from Kolkata.

One of our members Alice has completed our 5 Horses Landscape tutorial and would like to know advice on which frame to use for the picture.
For this picture I would use a light mount such as Ivory and frame the picture in a basic dark wooden frame with a gilt line. I wouldn't recommend using a gilt frame itself for the picture.
I always recommend double mounting your pastel pencil pictures because it pushes the picture further away from the glass. You could double mount the picture in all ivory or use ivory just on the outer mount and a dark colour on the inside – Russian green is a good colour.
I feel these choices would enhance the picture further. If you are buying ready made mounts then you may only be able to find an all ivory mount which is fine.

Sally Fitzgibbons
H: 5'7 (168cm)
W: 135LBS (61kg)
Over the past year Sally and DH have really solidified their relationship and her surfing has never been better. With wins at the Australian Open, the Newcastle Surfest, and most recently her back-to-back victory at Bells it has been a phenomenal start to the season.
At the end of last year Sally wasn't satisfied with the way her boards were performing. DH invited her up to the Gold Coast to hangout in the factory and learn about shaping and designing the right boards. Together they measured up her old favorites, noting the aspects she liked and some of the things she didn't like. She took off with four boards from this shaping experience and straight away went to the Australian Open in Manly and won on her 5'7 x 17 ¾ x 2 1/8 Project 15. After the event she sent DH a text, which said 'We Won.' "That was a great achievement not only for Sally but also a great achievement for our relationship" said DH.
In the next event, the Newcastle Surfest, Sally again surfed her way to victory. This time on her 5'7 x 17 ¾ x 2 1/8 Puzzle Piece, a fast, responsive board designed for all conditions, allowing her backhand to excel. The Puzzle Piece is DHD's ultimate beach break surfboard with speed and looseness it allows you to get tight and keep your flow on beach break waves.
Sally claimed her 3rd win of the season at the coveted Bells Beach Rip Curl Pro against fellow team rider and good friend Stephanie Gilmore. She was surfing a DX1 with a rounded pintail, which has good hold in bigger waves. This board allows you to draw longer lines and helps make tighter turns on big open faces. Perfect for bigger, choppy, strong surf.
Sally's feedback has allowed DH to create the right boards for her in all conditions and her results speak volumes of the two's relationship.
"Sally fits right into the DHD team, she is hungry, focused and works hard to achieve top results. The inspiration and great friendship she draws from Steph creates an awesome working environment for the three of us and I just love it when the two of them go head to head in the final. As a shaper watching Steph and Sally at Bells this year was really satisfying."DH

There is a reason Epcot is lovingly referred to as "Every Person Comes Out Tired." Epcot holds enough attractions, shows, live entertainments, shops, and dining options for at least two full days, but we will do our best to get all of the "must-dos" into a day's plan.
Epcot Full-Day Plan
Fastpass+ Choices
*Normally, I say to try and schedule your fastpasses as early as you can when you plan on getting into any park. This way, you can try and use your original three fastpasses and then try to score at least a fourth before the night is up. Check out how to become a Fastpass+ master in one of our earlier posts. However, because of the way Epcot's Fastpass+ system is set up, there isn't much of a chance to book a good fourth fastpass, so you can spread them out more for where you'll be location-wise throughout the day.
Epcot has a tiered Fastpass+ system, and it is probably the most difficult system to navigate. On tier one, fastpass Test Track, which will have the longest wait times of the day, unless you have someone in your group who is a big Frozen fan, then you'll have to use your tier one fastpass on Frozen Ever After, which will also have wait times in the 80-90 minute range all day.
On tier two, you can basically use your fastpasses on any two attractions you like, as most wait times are around the same, but I like to use them on Living with the Land and Spaceship Earth, which can both see their wait times peak at a decent length and at seemingly random times throughout the day.
Rope Drop (9:00 a.m.)
- Arrive at the park a little before 9:00 a.m. to get into the park at rope drop. Head to Test Track or Frozen Ever After (whichever you haven't fastpassed).
- Head to your first fastpass (around 9:30-10:30 a.m.) – Test Track or Frozen Ever After
Late Morning (10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.)
- After you have done Frozen and Test Track, head back to the front of the park and grab a Starbucks from Fountainview. It's a gorgeous Starbucks, and it is always super impressive to watch how fast these cast members operate.
- If you're lucky, you might be able to catch a showing of the Muppet Mobile Labs
right in front of the former tip board– an awesome audio animatronic Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker that somehow interact with the audience and perform "science experiments." No one, not even cast members, seem to know when these shows happen throughout the day. So, you're going to have to be a little lucky to catch it.
- If you're into Mission Space, head back to Future World East and hop in line (lines are never too long).
- If you're at Epcot during a festival, and chances are high that you are (Food and Wine in the fall, Festival of the Arts in the winter, or Flower and Garden in the spring), make sure you stop by the Festival Center in the former Wonders of Life pavilion (RIP Cranium Command).
Afternoon (1:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.)
- Go back towards Spaceship Earth and use your fastpass (ideally, 12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. window)
- Head to Future World West
- Time to ride the Seas with Nemo and Friends (again, not usually a long wait)
- Once you're in the Seas, take a look around at all the underwater tanks, and pay a visit to the manatees!
- Catch a showing of Turtle Talk with Crush, especially if you have kiddos, as they get to sit front and center and may get to ask Crush a question!
- After the Seas, head over to those pyramid-looking things to visit Figment in
Journey Into Imagination with Figment.
- There is something associated with the Imagination Pavilion that you won't find on any guide map, but certainly needs to have some time devoted to it. Behind the giant waterfall (where the water actually "falls up,"), there are a series of fountains that jump from one platform to the next, called the leapfrog fountains. These fountains are both completely mesmerizing to look at and incredibly fun to play in. I could play in these things for hours if there wasn't so many other fun things to do. They truly are one of the hidden treasures of Walt Disney World, and everyone who actually takes the time to watch and play in them feels the same way.
Late Afternoon/Early Evening (3:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.)
- Time to head back to World Showcase ("the countries").
- Coming from Imagination, you will be closest to Canada, so we'll start there.
- Make sure you stop and see "O Canada!," a short movie featuring comedian and Canadian-native Martin Short. It is the best movie of the countries that offer them in World Showcase.
- Take a stroll through the shops of the UK, the beauty of France and Morocco, and the gardens of Japan.
- America is the "host" of World Showcase and lies in the center. When you get here,
take in a showing of the American Adventure, and make sure you do so early enough so you can also see the Voice of Liberty. Check a Times Guide for that day, but they're last show is usually around 5:00 p.m.
- Now, a little walking comes into play. Go back the way you came, through the same countries, because we have to go back to the one of the best attractions in all of Walt Disney World.
Evening/Nighttime (6:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.)
- Use your last fastpass for Living with the Land.
- Head across the pavilion to Soarin' Around the World. The extra walking from World Showcase allows time for the lines to die down a bit in the front-half of the park. Usually around 6:00-6:30 p.m., the lines in Future World die down a good deal, so you're only waiting an average of 30 minutes for Soarin'.
- Now, we're heading back to the countries (remember that "Every Person Comes Out Tired" crack). This time, go across the promenade to begin your worldly journey through Mexico.
- Take a ride with The Three Caballeros aboard The Gran Fiesta Tour (hardly ever more than a 5-minute wait).
- Now, it's time to decide where to eat dinner around the world!
- Again, if it's festival time, your options increase exponentially, with food booths added to the already wonderful quick service and table service options.
- As you decide, make your way through Norway (which you've already seen), visit the shops of China, take in the quaintness of Germany, and the authenticity of Italy, and before you know it, you're back in America.
- After you choose your dinner spot, it's dessert time! Germany, Norway, and France are my favorite spots, so there are amazing options no matter where you are in World Showcase!
- After you get your dessert, make sure you get a good spot for Illuminations: Reflections of Earth
- A common mistake people make is feeling the need to get a good spot at least 30 minutes early, right on the lagoon. Illuminations can be seen and heard from just about anywhere, so don't feel like you have to waste time waiting.
- My favorite spot? The sitting area outside the Norway bakery- Kringla Og Kafe.
- Watch Illuminations and enjoy the amazing park closing music that follows.
This plan is quite daunting and may not even be feasible for some people to get through in a day, but it can be done. No matter what you are able to get done, enjoy every second and take in the beauty of Epcot because it really is a theme park like no other.

Release date: July 26th 2017
Sponsored by 1800WWW.COM
Plot | Cast | Crew | Download the movie | Orang-U at the IMdb
It's Mark Cousens, and he's reading the script on the MBTA here in
Boston. Mark lives in Norwich in the UK but came to Boston because he
loves ape movies.
One time intern at the Free Software Foundation, now living it up in
Rochester, New York. Stevie is one of the producers of Orang-U.
Don used to live in Boston, then he moved to Seattle. Still, he is
one of the producers of this movie. He's also a lawyer.
Justin gave us money to make the movie, but not enough money to not
put up this photo of him on the web. He drinks his cider from a 20oz
glass like a person should.
If Mark looks drunk in this photo, it's because he is. Mark lives in
the UK (as apparently all people called Mark do) and does amazing
voiceover work when he's not at the pub.
Here's a photo of Rob Myers drinking red wine with a straw with a
silly hat on in a hotel inVancouver. He'll complain and say its diet
Coke, but they don't even have diet Coke in Canada.

Customer Reviews
I ordered two passport holders (Color: Navy and orange) for my husband's birthday and a treat to myself, and they arrived in the mail today.
The quality of the leather is superb and soft to touch. It smells good. Workmanship is flawless and the monogram hot press excellent.
Good value for money and I will order other leather products from this site.
I ordered these as a gift for my daughter and her husband's honeymoon abroad. Good quality and look great.
The passport case I ordered was made of soft leather. It had credit card slots inside and was monogramed. It was very nice quality and a good value. I bought it as a gift and the recipient was genuinely pleased. I am now thinking of ordering one for myself!
I punchased this personally monogrammed passport wallet for my nephew Josh upon his receiving an Executive MBA from Michigan State. Since Josh loves to travel to other countries, it is the perfect gift. The quality is excellent. And the grey color with the silver monogram is outstanding. He is going to love it!
Was skeptical based on competitors having a similar offering for double or almost triple the price, but decided to take a chance. Talk about quick turnaround time for a personalized monogrammed item! How do they do it?
Functionality meets my needs. I have two passports and there is room for both. One of my passports is the 52 page supersized ones and it still fits. The color I opted for is cobalt blue and it looks super especially with my red monogram. Only downside is a limit of 4 letters for personalization, but that's very minor.

Here's an innovative take on a rather humble object, the nail file. The original form factor gets you detained by the TSA. In contrast, this Japanese version is a short, innocuous cylinder with multiple filing functions:
We don't have a line-by-line translation available, but we can clearly see that it performs three functions (not sure why they're touting four): In the first image below, it rounds the nail. In the second image, it appears it cleans beneath the nail. And in the third image, one uses it like a regular file, with the abrasive-textured flat machined into the surface.
Small enough to fit any purse or pocket, the compact Nail File Cylinder's main innovative elements are the two circular files that allow you to work on broken nails in the same way you would work an old-school manual pencil sharpener. Add two more regular files on its sides and you have a mini toolbox capable of fixing everything from a hair-thin splinter to a full-on break. If you ever wished to have 24/7 access to your manicurist, now you can!
This being from Japan, where packaging is everything, it looks like you can choose to carry it in a ring box or a pouch:
The ring box stirs a thought: If they do away with the first function, perhaps they could produce wedding bands with the latter two functions. Perfect for married couples who enjoy manicures and DIY.

Just migrated to Singapore and already breaking into a sweat to find the right gym for you to start your new lease of life on a positive note? Search no more as these under 30-minute workout gyms that we are about to share with you will ensure you get your dose of endorphins faster than downing your bowl of laksa during lunch.
For those who fancy some CrossFit-like workouts which typically involves a high-intensity interval training (HIIT), then Ritual gym at Raffles Place may just be the place for you. Ritual specialises in 20-minute HIIT workouts, which is ideal enough a time to squeeze out of your hour-long lunch break. The routines are usually a good blend and mix of cardio and strength training to ensure you get your money's worth through a full body 20-minute workout.
And because the owners and founders of Ritual gym adopt a unique idea of training your body as a mean machine instead of with machines, some of you may be disappointed when you first step into this gym space as there will not be any familiar weight loss machines such as treadmills or bikes in sight. Instead, in their places are the majestic dumbbells, the magnificent kettlebells, the royal gymnastic rings, the magnificent medicine balls and the glorious suspension ropes that you will be made to fully utilise during your intense, gritty session.
In a typical 20-minute session, you will take part in executing a series of different exercises such as push-ups, burpees, squats and kettlebell swings, among others, with a rest time of no longer than 15 seconds in between. You will have at least a trainer on the training floor, if not in your ear, urging you passionately to pick up the slack and get on with the next station. Each of this fun session can accommodate up to ten individuals and commences every 30-minute from the time they open their doors for business.
In addition, Ritual also boasts a fuel bar where you can treat yourself to a well-deserved, hard-earned post-workout, drizzle foshizzle protein shake. Clean workout clothing, towels and toiletries are conveniently provided, and you will be working out on a rugged, shock-absorbent gym floor, leaving your shoes redundant and effectively nullifies all of your silly excuses that you may have. All that is left to is to show up at Ritual and begin grinding.
For those of you who enjoy an electrifying workout worthy of bringing the entire WWE roof down, you probably should pep your step all the way to VisionGym. Decked out with iPad stations all over its interior space, VisionGym is the first fitness studio in Singapore to specialise in Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) workout routines — an exclusive training exercise that incorporates the usage of electrical impulse currents to stimulate your muscles into growth. Before you freak your yoga pants out, we are here to assure you that it is not as painful as it sounds. A qualified instructor will be on hand to monitor and adjust the level of the current to match the different threshold level of individuals and is usually in the mild tingling range for mere mortals like us.
Several fitness studies have shown that the contractions triggered by EMS are able to penetrate through the deepest of muscle tissues and are reported to be 18 times more effective as compared to the traditional weight training that you are almost too familiar with. A typical EMS session at VisionGym normally involves the participants donning a specially customised PowerSuit while performing fundamental bodyweight workouts. The PowerSuit is connected wirelessly via an app, which is exactly what the iPad stations are for, that is fully controlled by a certified and qualified instructor. The road to victory is relatively easy: you perform an exercise, say lunges or planks, for a full 20 minutes with the current switched on, and when it is over, you head back to your office like a female Spartan with your delicious salad lunch in hand. Plain and simple.
Contours Express
If you fall under the self-conscious category or are just not a fan of a room filled with raging testosterone and grunting male adults, Contours Express gym is for you. Located at Tampines, Contours Express gym offers a welcoming and non-intimidating fitness environment exclusively for ladies to torch some calories, burn those stubborn fats, tone that glutes and, of course, get acquainted with new and fit girlfriends.
This ladies-only gym conducts full body circuit sessions that works all of your major group muscles. New members are also made to go through a thorough body fat percentage assessment to ascertain the problem areas that require immediate attention before the trainers progress further to devise and tailor a fitness programme in accordance to your individual health, goals and medical conditions. These trainers will then review your progress every six weeks and continue to tweak and tailor your programme if necessary.

BELLOWS FALLS—The scent of hot cocoa fills the Chester Depot. A harpist tunes his instrument. Volunteers in red Santa hats fill a basket with candy canes, and Thermoses with drinking chocolate. Santa Claus, bedecked in his professional red velvet suit and white fur trim, leans against the doorframe.
Bill Kopf (a.k.a. Santa) of Hartland reminisces about his boyhood in New Jersey. His grandfather and father started Bridgewater's fire department. Kopf started as Santa's helper approximately 30 years ago, handing children bags with candy, a tangerine, and a toy.
"I've had years of practice," he says, smiling.
A gust of wind stirs fallen leaves and sets the plywood candy canes and signs reading "North Pole" to shudder.
A train whistle sounds. Everyone in the station rushes to position.
Train crossing signals blink to life, clanging their warning for travelers on Depot Street to stop for the Green Mountain Flyer, which today is the Santa Express.
The red engine pulling seven cars named for Santa's reindeer rolls to a stop. The doors open and approximately 375 children and adults fill the station's platform.
"Santa!" calls a pint-sized traveller.
With that happy cry, filled with the joy of Santa and a belief in flying reindeer and other magic, the Chester train station transforms into the North Pole.
A man holds a little girl up to the window to see Santa. Grownups with cameras and smartphones snap photos of children with Santa faster than he can hand out candy canes.
This year's Santa Express train ride is the first in a few years, said Gary Fox, event organizer and member of Sustainable Valley Group.
The train ride from Bellows Falls Train Station to Chester was a fundraiser for three local organizations: the Bellows Falls Middle School Band Friends, the Bellows Falls Community Bike Project, and Destination Bellows Falls Sustainable Valley Group.
According to a press release from the organizations, the scenic ride dates to 1964, when millionaire seafood industrialist and rail enthusiast F. Nelson Blount set up Steamtown, U.S.A., a steam locomotive museum that ran steam excursions out of North Walpole, N.H., and Bellows Falls.
The non-profit Steamtown Foundation took over operation following his death in 1967.
Now, after a few years without the ride, the band friends, bike project, and SVG have revived the Santa Express.
According to Fox and volunteer Kevin Lescord, the groups started with rides for 275 at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., both of which sold out, so the organizers added two additional train cars.
Fox said putting the ride on is "a ton of work every day," but that organizers hope to hold the event next year.
Heidi Lauricella, a fellow organizer, and the mother of two band members, produces an event binder showing planned performances by the Grinch and Cindy Lou Who (of Dr. Seuss fame), a saxophone trio, and a magician.
It's complicated. Each carriage, entertainer, and time are marked on the schedule, which is certainly impressive-looking. Lauricella joked that this was her "math problem."
She added that the three organizations prepared some 30 gallons of hot chocolate and more than 800 cookies.
Bradie, a seventh-grader, band member, and today an elf, posed for a photo outside the station with her cousin Keigan, a fourth-grader at Westminster Center School. She said she loved seeing the little kids smile. Many children told her they were going to see Santa.
Their time at the North Pole wound down, passengers climb aboard waiting carriages. Santa climbs into car seven.
Erin Johnson, her husband, Jason, and their son Zander drink hot chocolate and nibble cookies.
They decided to ride the Santa Express as a day out with friends, said Johnson.
"The Grinch was awesome," she said.
The train's whistle sounds, the locomotive jerks, and they're away from the station. Next stop: Bellows Falls!
A little boy holding a cup of cocoa stands to peer from the window. His father steadies him. Santa passes and says hello.
Fox answers his cell phone: "I can't talk long; I'm a conductor on a Santa train."
Despite a child separated from his parents and a kid that needed to exit the train for the bathroom at the last minute, the train is on schedule, said Fox.
The elven volunteers cart trays of cocoa and cookies to passengers.
Lauricella takes a break. They've run short of hot chocolate, having left some behind at the station.
She said she has started a file filled with lessons learned for next year.
As Santa speaks with kids in the last car, Lauricella says to one of the band members, "Let Santa do his thing. He's like Oprah for kids."
The Santa Express rolls along the Connecticut River and into Bellows Falls. After the train reaches its destination, the passengers stream onto the platform. It's lunch time for many.
"In the hard times we live in now," said Kopf of playing Santa, "it's nice to bring a smile to youngsters' faces."

There have been no reports of civilian casualties from the strikes on Syria carried out by the United States, United Kingdom and France, said Dana W. White, Assistant to the U.S. Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs in a news conference on April 19, Censor.NET reports.
"Following our operations, Russia falsely claimed Syria air defenses shot down a significant number of missiles, when in fact we hit all of our targets. Of the surface-to-air missiles that the Assad regime launched, nearly every one was launched after the last of our missiles hit their targets," White said.
"The Russian manufactured air defense systems were totally ineffective. Russia and the regime demonstrated the ineffectiveness of their systems again two days later when those systems engaged accidentally," Pentagon chief spokesperson said.
France, the United States and United Kingdom launched joint military action late on April 14, firing 105 missiles at the three sites in Syria. Shortly after the airstrikes began, President Donald Trump said all three sites were "associated" with the Syria's chemical weapon program.
Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White told reporters on Saturday the strikes "successfully hit every target." Russia, Syria's military backer, disagreed with that report, saying that Syrian air defense systems intercepted 71 out of 103 cruise missiles.
And although the Russians reported a number of Syrian military airfields, industrial sites and research facilities were hit, the Syrians said otherwise.

Design Tips ~ Let's Talk...Throw Pillows
It's week 2 of my Design Tips & Tricks series and this week we are talking about throw pillows! There is one simple trick I use to get that nice, full pillow that you see in the styled spaces and I am sharing it today! Plus, my favorite places to buy inserts!
Do you ever wonder how the interior stylists throw pillows always look perfectly full and have that nice V-chop? And your pillows may be coming up a little flat? I have a simple little trick I use whenever I am stuffing a new pillow cover. Say for example, you have a 20x20 pillow cover and you need an insert for it. Instead of buying a 20x20 insert, you should go up 2" in size and buy a 22x22 insert. That will ensure a nice, full looking pillow and all 4 corners should fit nicely into the cover. And you will get that nice designer looking V-chop! I guarantee you will notice a difference!
I have a few places I love buying really nice inserts at that won't fall flat after continued use! You can certainly shop online at places such as Wayfair and Amazon, but I love shopping at my local Crate & Barrel store. They always have a wide variety of sizes and blends in stock such as feather and down! And they are all reasonably priced! Shop pillow inserts here.
I hope this simple tricks helps and you can use this same trick for any size throw pillow! So an 18x18 cover would use a 20x20 insert and so forth! Next week, on design tips & tricks we are talking all about hanging curtains!

Penthouse Media has bought the owner of the profligate porn site AdultFriendFinder, for $500 million.
VentureBeat has confirmed the acquisition, although it wasn't announced. The deal closed last Thursday. The New York Times reported on deal too. Last month, we heard the company was negotiating to sell to Penthouse for between $500 million and $1 billion.
AdultFriendFinder is just the largest property of Various, the acquired entity. AdultFriendFinder offer an adult community for swingers, and a range of more than 25 smaller and less risque sites. It also does business under the name FriendFinder and claims to have more than 260 million total users, with 1.2 of them paying customers.
Among other sites, Various owns gradfinder.com and bigchurch.com
Penthouse is trying to expand online. Marc H. Bell, the company's chief executive, said the strategy was to diversify from its print origins and serve a range of sex-related print, in video and online material to 18-to-34-year-old men.
Bell is part of a group of private investors called PET Capital Partners, that bought the financially bankrupt Penthouse magazine in 2004.

You pushed me,
Into the deepest abyss of my mind,
Filled with dark, shapeless, nameless, fears,
Black as the endless night,
And without its moon and stars.
You enjoyed my torment,
My pain and suffering,
While trying to conceal,
Your own fears,
Haunted by the truth of my words.
Alas, you forgot,
That day follows night.
That somehow, somewhere,
I'll live to see orange staining the sky,
With the cool breeze wafting across my face.
With the birds twittering,
With all the peace and calm,
That follows sunrise,
I'll somehow find a way,
To smile at the world again.
Because one day,
You'll be the one,
Staring at the pitch black
Of your dark heart,
Regretting the wrong you've done to me.
Another thanks goes to Mara Eastern's Poetry 101 Rehab for this awesome prompt.

Most argumentative sections have a very good easily characterized system, particularly they are simply via an useful context. Any sentences assists in the include the overarching dissertation (and / or argumentative declare) on the papers, and subsection can present newer information that can show an actual scanner your career might be the correct. The components define any paragraph could be the soon after:
Topic word. Individual word identifies within the subscriber just what sentences is approximately. It usually relationships back up in the bigger assertion by some means, it describes the actual reason why the particular subsection fits in through the dissertation. A area paragraph is likely to be A few or maybe even A couple of phrases often, is usually will likely be easliy found. individual phrase.
Evidence. A large percentage of appearance grammatical construction with an argumentative old fashioned paper start adding some somewhat substantiation which your spot certainly is the correct. This data can be in essence: prices, reports, or your current studies. The sections are usually just where the resistant can certainly be written in a simpler technique.
Analysis. A superb sentences won't just display indicators. It also needs efforts and describe the key reasons why the data is worth it, actually indicates, plus why exactly marketing and advertising when compared to many other round the explanation available. At this stage, a person's testing will be.
Conclusions or changes. As soon as the investigation, a great passage would deduce by simply reporting exactly why the exact sentence or two is critical, the best way matches while using the dissertation on the essay, tending to beginning to constructed our next subsection.
Reread your main dissertation record.
If you are writing a good argumentative paper, both equally passage will help additional ones overarching swear. Before you could produce a great argumentative paragraph, you require to have your own dissertation report safely as their intended purpose. A suitable dissertation proclamation is usually a 1-3 heading criteria of the items you'll be disagreeing in addition to why it is necessary. Lots of people are reasoning and arguing that most Americans ought to utilize energy-efficient incandescent bulbs within their households? Or else you might be quarrelling that every one consumers will need to have the liberty to pick out which generally goods they are buying? Make sure to include a distinct thought of your own disagreement before beginning producing.
Write evidence also testing 1st.
Often it's always preferable to launch composing among a particular argumentative paragraph rather than at the outset of the very subsection. In case you are thinking up around starting a subsection from the start, advise yourself that you might focus on the section of the piece that has been most dependable to: the data as well as prognosis. After you have over more efficient component to your sentences, you can easily start the niche post title.
List every research which experts claim sustains a thesis document.
No challenege show up kind controversy you are earning, you will need to choose facts in an effort to entice people that you have been correct. A person's facts will be a lot of things: historic documents, insurance quotes away from masters, originates from some sort of scientific study, a survey, or even your private findings. Before you decide to go forward utilizing your sentence or two, subscriber list outdoors every bit concerning signs that you just suspect encourages a claim
Choose 1-3 relevant some explanation for use in your sentence or two.
Each sentence you're writing have to be good as well as self-contained. Which means that you will not have too most some substantiation to check out in each piece. Preferably instead, each sentence or two will need to have really 1-3 interrelated parts of evidence. Demand a close look at the evidence that you have obtained. What are some waste material around the proof that appear comparable to these web site together again? That is the very good who they go with the precise subsection. Various evidence which will data may possibly website alongside one another contain:
- If these portion basic web templates as well as ideas
- If people easily share the same base (like exact document as well as research study)
- If they express a trendy author
- If they are same exact sorts of explanation (particularly three critiques that demonstrate very much the same overall results)
Write about your research employing the Some W's involving composing.
The Some W's regarding blogging are typically theWho, What exactly, When you are, 'Where, As to why,andHow. Is actually the significant background information the various readers must have for you to see the guidelines you're. Simply because you jot down your current appropriate round the indications, maintain your visitor in their mind. Constantly demonstrate the thing that your indications can be, and exactly how it absolutely was received, along with what this particular means. Two or three one of a kind some things to recall include:
- You really should define any kind of search terms or possibly info that's not known to all your person. (Which)
- You really should present any existing significant appointments and additionally parts, assuming pertinent (for example where a fantastic doc was in fact settled). (When/Where)
- You will need to explain just how the evidence was basically gained. Such as, you must reveal the strategies on the scientific study which given you a person's information. (Precisely how)
- You have got to describe just who provided you with ones own verification. Have you got a policy by a pro? What makes this individual thought of as knowledgeable about your idea? (What person)
- You have got to demonstrate dui lawyer las vegas think this unique verification terribly important as well as outstanding. (How come)
Write 2-3 lines investigating a evidence.
After you actually offer all your critical, pertinent work(vertisements) having to do with resistant, you will want to don't hurry detailing the method that you imagine evidence improves your actual significant case. That's the spot where your individual analysis is important. It's hard to plainly directory indications and additionally move forward: you must make clear it has the value. A few questions it is easy to determine any time you investigate any evidence may include:
- What do necklaces that data as a group?
- How can do this indications enable end up being this thesis?
- Are currently there all the counterpoints or method descriptions Produce take into consideration?
- What helps to make the following research stand out? Is possible nearly anything specialized or attention-grabbing with it?
Write your personal idea post title.
The area of interest heading each sentence is a signpost that a person utilizes to follow along with your actual controversy. Your primary rewards include a person's thesis survey, and each piece definitely will build up upon this thesis through studies. Because visitor goes thru ones newspapers, could recognize how equally sentence or two plays a part in a thesis. 11 Don't forget that the actual dissertation will be big case, and so the matter time period aids show your dissertation by just paying attention to a smallish problem or just suggestion. The following area phrase makes a claim or sometimes reason, and that's next protected or just a child friendly around the subsequent content. Get the fundamental idea of your own subsection as well as post your extremum thesis survey which often expresses this process principal suggestion. To illustrate your entire thesis account is "Charlie Browning plays the main cartoon style often, Centimeter your own dissertation could have the accompanying topic phrases:
- "The top search rankings that will Charlie Brown lightly television programs special deals now have earned for decades reveal any sway these individuality. "
- "Some customers fight who super heroes similar to A super hero substantial investment critical in contrast to Charlie Red. Unfortunately, studies show that the majority of People today in america distinguish a great deal more gladly utilizing the hapless Charlie than with that highly effective,
- alien Superman. "
- "Media experts analyze Charlie Brown's catchphrases, completely unique overall appearance, and therefore sage intelligence as being purposes why this valuable character will be preferred through children and adults same way. "
Make convinced the subject title sports activities other passage.
After you've written and published your own content paragraph, read again ones own research also examination. Ask yourself if individual sentence sports activities paragraph's hints as well as characteristics. Surrender and turn to match together? Can you get techniques that appear out of place? If that's, look at find out how to modify the issue paragraph to insure many of the recommendations inside passage.
If there's lots of strategies, you might need to break-up the actual paragraph directly onto couple of distinct lines.
Be without doubt any niche phrase is not really a restatement from the dissertation on its own. Every paragraph probably has a distinct, unique idea title. If you happen to quickly restating "Charlie Dark is simply important" at the outset of just about every appearance paragraph, you need to cut down an individual's question paragraphs a whole lot more fully.
Conclude an individual's sentences.
Unlike entire papers, only some paragraph may complete outcome. Although, it truly is valuable for you to first in search results a suitable word to make sure you tying or braiding to the loose-fitting ceases in the paragraph and even highlighting the way in which section just resulted in your primary dissertation. You'd like to do that financially and even without delay. Be able to write one last word that may increases your assertion previous to selling it to a subsequent range hints. Many key words as well as key phrases to create use of inside the concluding line may include "Therefore, "Ultimately, " "As you will observe, Centimeter as well as "Thus. "
Start a brand new paragraph as you start mastering a new option.
You gets started a whole new piece in case you achieve a fresh phase and also suggestion. Because of starting a innovative sentences, you signal into your subscriber which unfortunately you're moving equipment in a roundabout way. A certain amount of signs you need to set up a modern piece normally include:
- When unsecured debt settlement to go about a special format and even topic
- When you set about to pay contributory points or even counterarguments
- When you actually address a different sort of evidence
- When individuals take a look at a separate time frame, era, as well as person
- When your present passage is growing into unwieldy. For people with a great number of phrases in the sentences, you will have too many recommendations. Both trim your piece right into two different, or alternatively revise way down your personal contacting make it a bit more easily readable.

Stephen (Steve) Peter Crow resigned as sole director of HWGA Company Ltd on 15 May 2010, the same day his brother David Bruce Crow of Inglewood and sister Leanne Marie Osborn of Fitzroy, New Plymouth, were appointed directors. Steve Crow resigned on the day after he was banned for four years from being a company director anywhere in Australasia and was by the Ministry of Economic Development which served the banning order on him on14 May 2010. On 15 June David Bruce Crow, the new co-director of HWGA Co. Ltd, registered 50% of its shares in his name (They were previously all registered in the name of Dermott Malley, CEO of Truth Publications Ltd (In Liq) which is reported to owe lenders and creditors $622,000 (see ref. 1). The remaining 50% of company shares continue to be registered in the name of of Andrew James Steele of Mt Roskill, Auckland.
HWGA Co. Ltd, now directed by Steve's two siblings, David and Leanne, owns 40% of 'mother porn company' CVC Group Ltd (directed by John Malcolm Carr), the company which owns Eden Digital Ltd – a hardcore porn company (also directed by Mr John M Carr). HWGA Co. Ltd, when it was co-directed by Steve Crow and his former wife Gaylene Sharon Rogers, acquired 50% of 435 Devon Ltd in 2008 – after a sale and purchase agreement was signed by David Crow on 25 February 2008 – on behalf of 435 Devon Ltd – to buy the New Plymouth RSA buildings on 435 Devon St for $1.9 million. This share acquisition was recorded on-line by David Crow on 30 April 2008.
David Bruce Crow, sole director of 435 Devon Ltd, appointed his brother Steve as co-director on 25 February 2008, according to Steve Crow's signed Consent certificate registered on line on 30 April 2008. David Crow made that appointment on the same day he signed the sale and purchase agreement on behalf of his company 435 Devon Ltd, to buy the 435 Devon Street RSA building. However, Steve Crow's failure to supply his Consent certificate to the Registrar until it was faxed through to the Registrar on 30 April (it was registered on the same day), means that the earliest valid appointment of himself as director in law, would be 20 working days prior to 30 April 2008.
Section 159 of the Companies Act 1993 states that a change in directorship (appointment and/or resignation) must be notified to the Registrar and the signed and dated Consent certificate supplied, all within 20 working days of the change(s). Failure to do so is an offence and upon conviction a fine can be imposed on the the offender.
435 Devon Ltd raised a $395,000 first mortgage with PMIT Nominees Ltd to purchase the RSA property on 21 November 2008 (settlement day) and the company entered into a legally binding confidential financial arrangement with the vendor – the New Plymouth & Districts' Returned and Services' Association Incorporated – which left a large amount of equity – about $1,577,000 – in the property as a second mortgage @ 6% interest (Source: NPRSA Society's Financial Statement Year ending 30/06/09). The New Plymouth 435 Devon St RSA property was purchased entirely by money borrowed by 435 Devon Ltd.
Steve Crow has confirmed that he was appointed as director of 435 Devon Ltd on 25 February 200 but his certificate was not supplied to he Registrar until 30 April 2008. As director he would have had to have signed and dated, along with his brother and co-director David Crow, the sale and puchase agreement relating to 435 Devon Ltd.
Steve Crow only served as co-director of 435 Devon Ltd for a short period in 2008 – from 25 February until he resigned on 12 November 2008. The latter date was just days before the the settlement date of 21 November for the purchase of the 435 Devon St property.
Then on 17 December 2008 David Bruce Crow registered a transfer of 5,000 of 435 Devon Ltd's shares, from HWGA Co. Ltd to his brother Steve Crow, who still owns the shares (50% of the 10,000 HWGA Co. Ltd shares).
