The dumbbells act like a personal trainer to guide users through every exercise while tracking reps, sets, calories burned, as well as providing feedback on form.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">An integrated and proprietary 3DT&#x2122; electronic sensor features a rep counter that records the distance of the first rep to measure all remaining reps against. This ensures that the full range of motion is reached for each rep. The sensor displays the current rep count and provides an audible cue when each rep is completed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The new, revolutionary 3DT app wirelessly transfers data from users\u2019 workouts via Bluetooth\u00ae Smart technology and automatically syncs data to iOS and Android devices. Users can track goals, progress, calories burned, heart rate and share results with friends. In addition to workout tracking options, users have access to a library of 70 video exercises and six workouts, as well as a six-week challenge program.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Created specifically for in-home use, the innovative design reduces the number of separate dumbbells from 32 down to only two \u2013 maximizing space savings and storage. In addition, changing the weight is as easy as twisting the handle to adjust weights incrementally from 5 to 60 pounds to create a customized strength workout.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The Bowflex\u00ae SelectTech\u00ae 560 Dumbbells are currently available online at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fitness-superstore.co.uk\/bowflex-560-selecttech-dumbbells-pair.html\">Fitness Superstore<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">BOWFLEX\u00ae SELECTTECH\u00ae 1090I DUMBBELLS<br \/>\nSERIOUS WEIGHT TRAINING<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Weights adjust from 4 kg (10 lbs) to 41 kg (90 lbs).

By drinking a can of B4 shortly before your night begins, you\u2019re fortifying your body with the electrolytes, amino acids, vitamins, plant extracts, antioxidants and minerals to protect against alcohol\u2019s crash course through your system. These ingredients give you the metabolic energy to enjoy the night just as much as the morning after.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">When you drink, your body flips to emergency mode. Your body can&#8217;t store alcohol, so it wants to break it down and get it out ASAP. When your liver goes to work, it uses an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase to convert the alcohol into acetaldehyde. Unfortunately, acetaldehyde is toxic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This is your next day demon &#8211; suave and charming though he may seem tonight, he\u2019ll have you praying for salvation in the morning if you consume too much. Alcohol acts as a diuretic, causing your body to flush fluids 3-4 times faster than it rehydrates. Though this gets the bad stuff out, it also purges your body of the electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and water that help you ward off the demons leaving you low on nutrients, dehydrated, and possibly clutching that porcelain god. That&#8217;s how B4 came to life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As an alcohol industry veteran, Dave Larue, dreamed of a remedy for the rough mornings that always followed nights he spent sipping the good stuff. He saw a huge opportunity to make something revolutionary. That&#8217;s when he met, John Mansour, who is the pharmacist behind B4&#8217;s formula.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">After years of research, testing and tweaking, Dave and John\u2019s dream is now a reality, and it\u2019s called B4. The co-founders celebrated their one-year anniversary in December 2017, launching two new flavors, berry and grape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Here&#8217;s a video that explains how the product works.\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Insta, Twitter, Facebook: @DrinkB4<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Global luxury bath brand, Victoria + Albert Bath\u2019s Tombolo bath rack is the perfect gift for family, friends or your special someone on any occasion.<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-392305 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tombolo-Mozzano_email_preview.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tombolo-Mozzano_email_preview.jpeg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tombolo-Mozzano_email_preview-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The rack\u2019s minimalist, contemporary design adds a chic element to your bathroom d\u00e9cor while offering a practicality to bathing.

Warm without the bulk, thanks to a drawcord at the waist that allows for a fitted, flattering silhouette. Recommended for hitting the slopes, navigating city streets, and really anywhere that the temperature dips between 0-40\u00b0.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The fiber that makes up the American bison\u2019s thick coat includes hollow outer guard hairs that are lightweight, compactable, and resilient \u2014 the very reason the bison population has withstood countless harsh winters. We harnessed the fiber\u2019s natural capacity for warmth to craft a high-loft, antimicrobial insulation that regulates temperature, wicks away moisture, and mimics the bison\u2019s ability to thrive in the cold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Despite bison fiber\u2019s impressive insulation benefits, it\u2019s an underused and often discarded byproduct of the ranching industry. Our proprietary B100&#x2122; Fill is our attempt to change that. We\u2019ve created our own supply chain to source, sort, and clean bison fiber, which we then blend with recycled polyester to create a lab-tested insulation with lightweight baffles to trap in warmth.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-373784 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/opp-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/opp-1.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/opp-1-300x124.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ospreyeurope.com\">www.ospreyeurope.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ospreyeurope\/\">INSTAGRAM<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/OspreyEurope\">FACEBOOK<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OspreyPacks\">TWITTER<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC6fQWn3SIA1dkn407RTEH6g\">YOUTUBE<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.co.uk\/ospreypacks\/\">PINTEREST<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Find the Perfect Gift<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Struggling to find the perfect Christmas gift for your outdoor obsessed loved one?

This holiday season, the AOA wants parents to re-consider this and open their eyes to an often-overlooked hazard: eye injuries. Here are some tips to prioritize eye health and safety this holiday season:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Protect your peepers: Like helmets for biking and knee\/elbow pads for skateboarding, glasses or goggles should always be worn when using toys that shoot projectiles, even foam objects<br \/>\nKeep an eye out: Supervise children as they play with more common toys that could result in injury, such as light sabers, wands\/swords or even colored pencils<br \/>\nGive your eyes a break: If gifting tablets, cell phones or gaming systems, remind friends\/family to practice the \u201c20-20-20\u201d rule to avoid digital eyestrain from smartphones and handheld games which can cause headaches, blurred vision or dry eyes. Take a 20-second break to view something 20 feet away every 20 minutes<br \/>\nIf an accident happens: Contact your local doctor of optometry if an eye injury occurs and requires an examination, but remember: do not touch the eye, do not remove any lodged items\/debris or use any medication unless directed by an O.D.<br \/>\nCheck your list twice: If you\u2019re stumped on what gifts to give, check out the AOA\u2019s list of children\u2019s toys that actually help develop visual skills.

Richards 12-bore Sidelock, made in 1905, priced at \u00a36,380.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A historic gun that was used to protect coaches on dangerous journeys through the Wild West is just one of the sporting antiques that Lockyer of England has turned into a piece of sustainable artwork &#8211; making a unique gift for the festive season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">When the company founders saw a pile of 100 year-old sporting arms beyond economic repair, they vowed to try to find a way to rescue their heritage, history and craftsmanship. Coupled with the growing trend for sustainable art, Lockyer is passionate about restoring and transforming them into unique pieces of art.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The \u2018Lockyer Sporting Antiques\u2019 are priced to suit diverse Christmas gift budgets, starting at \u00a33,120 for an Army and Navy 12-Bore Boxlock, rising to \u00a314,270 for a pair of Joseph Lang &amp; Son 12-Bore Sidelocks. Each comes in a beautiful case, with a description of its unique history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Managing director George Champ said, \u201cI saw these beautiful, British side-by-sides as works of art and we are rescuing them and uncovering their history so that other people can enjoy them. We want people to appreciate each antique for its craftsmanship and artistic value because these are part of our sporting history \u2013 they are up to 140 years old.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Earlier this month, Lockyer secured two retail partners, luxury antiques gallery Nicholas Brawer, based in Madison Avenue, New York, and interiors specialist De Jong Interieur, in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. They are also stocked by Lady\u2019s Wood Shooting School, Bristol, UK.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">George was particularly struck by the beauty of some of the intricate engravings on the \u2018sporting antiques\u2019 \u2013 many made in the mid to late 1800s and each concealing an interesting history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Once a vintage sporting arm has been discovered by Lockyer, it is painstakingly restored \u2013 a highly-skilled process taking many weeks. It is also de-commissioned, deactivated and then certified by the Proof House, the national organisation which tests sporting arms for safety. Although it can no longer be fired, it can still \u2018dry fire\u2019, without destroying the appearance or patina and makes it legal to own and display the \u2018Lockyer Sporting Antique\u2019 at home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A team of experts carry out any repairs and restore and enhance the \u2018lock and action\u2019, which often feature delicate hand-crafted engraving. The barrel is taken back to its original steel form and given a corrosive-resistant finish of either original clear, graphite black, burnt bronze, silver or matt gold and reduced in length to 24in \u2013 that of an original coach gun. Every \u2018Lockyer Sporting Antique\u2019 is then fitted into its presentation wooden case, which contains its \u2018Proof\u2019 certificate and provenance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The rescued sporting arms are discovered worldwide, as well as people inheriting them. Lockyer, with bases in Dorchester, Dorset, and Bexhill in East Sussex, has already started receiving private commissions to turn the bequeathed antiques into works of art.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">George said: \u201cIt\u2019s great to think we are literally saving the beauty and revealing the history of these sporting arms for future generations to enjoy. There\u2019s a real desire for upcycling, so finding a new life for these pieces of history is also meeting a growing demand to reduce waste and to restore.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cEach one would have been painstakingly hand-made by a team of master craftsmen, sometimes taking over a year to make. The maker and engravers\u2019 artistic style is reflected in each of these sporting antiques, so turning them into a historical piece of art for people to appreciate seems a very fitting tribute.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Lockyer Sporting Antique Facts:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The first gun Lockyer bought was an original coach gun belonging to Wells Fargo and would have been used to protect their coaches on dangerous journeys through the American Wild West.<br \/>\nThe most beautiful part of a sporting arm is the hand-engraved steel \u2018sidelock\u2019 plate that houses the original lock mechanism, called the \u2018lock-plate\u2019. Working more than a hundred years ago, these little-known craftsmen engraved beautiful images of sporting dogs, game birds and decorative scrolls.<br \/>\nSkilled engineers, machinists, engravers, stockers and actioners spent hundreds of hours in workshops perhaps producing no more than 20 or 30 of these characterful British sporting antiques in their whole working lives.<br \/>\nTalented British gun inventors like Charles Boswell, William Greener and William Wellington Greener were instrumental in shaping the history and models of not only guns, but also other engineering developments. Frederick Beesley was known as \u2018The Inventor\u2019 to the London gun trade, such was his impressive ability. However he never harnessed his talent in a business sense and is not recognised as well as some of the other London makers.<br \/>\nAs well as one of the finest creators of sporting shotguns, William Greener invented an improved miners\u2019 lamp, a self-righting lifeboat and level crossing gates. His son, William Wellington Greener, became an accomplished writer and developed miniature rifles for target shooting. Charles Boswell is renowned for his contribution to sporting and military guns.<br \/>\nFor higher res images please go to Lockyer images or for more information watch our introductory video http:\/\/bit.ly\/2s8PifY .<br \/>\nVisit www.lockyerofengland.co.uk, contact info@lockyerofengland.co.uk or call +44 (0) 1978 896 526 &amp; follow us on Instagram and Facebook<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">FANTASY TO DEBUT 2018<br \/>\n\u2018BLACK &amp; WHITE AND NUDE ALL OVER\u2019<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Annual Calendar, Photographed by Oscar Picazo, Channels Classic Hollywood Sex Appeal<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-388025 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Mariah-2018-Calendar.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"922\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Mariah-2018-Calendar.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Mariah-2018-Calendar-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Tweet it: The ladies of @FANTASYLuxor will debut the 2018 \u201cBlack &amp; White and Nude All Over\u201d calendar on Oct. 24th. #Calendar #Vegas #FANTASY<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">LAS VEGAS \u2013 Channeling the timeless glamour of classic Hollywood, the ladies of FANTASY will debut the show\u2019s 2018 calendar, \u201cBlack &amp; White and Nude All Over,\u201d on Tuesday, Oct. 24.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The release of the calendar coincides with the show\u2019s 18th anniversary at Luxor Hotel and Casino, where FANTASY has remained the top Las Vegas revue for much of its run.

The funding is enough to support free trips for twenty veterans, family and friends.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Nichola Rowland-Smith, Head of Remembrance Travel, said: &#8220;The Battle of Monte Cassino in Italy seems to be less well-known in the nation&#8217;s history than the D-Day Landings, yet it was another pivotal turning point in bringing to an end WWII.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;We have been fortunate to receive significant LIBOR funds from the Treasury to take D-Day veterans back to Normandy since 2014. Thanks to this funding it will be a wonderful opportunity to take back those who fought in Monte Cassino for them too to pay their respects to fallen comrades. We are also extremely grateful to Wates Construction and A E Arma Elektropanc for sponsoring the event and to all the rugby players that took part to help us raise this amount. This means a great deal to Monte Cassino veterans and their families.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The team of Rugby Legends included ex England, Wales, South Africa, Wasps and Harlequins&#8217; players including the magical former Wales&#8217; Captain Colin Charvis, Harlequin legend, Simon Keogh and England Player, Paul Volley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Colin Charvis said: &#8220;It was a wonderful experience to take part in this match. We all knew about what happened at Normandy but for many of us it was a real eye-opener to discover what those guys did at Monte Cassino. We also shared some great stories between the teams, finding out what each other&#8217;s ancestors did in WWII &#8211; it was a lovely chance to ensure their memories live on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Monte Cassino veterans fought in despicable conditions, on exposed hilltop slopes, coming under heavy artillery fire, knee-deep in mud and snow. Many veterans are in their 90s and will now be able to lay old ghosts to rest and honour fallen comrades. The tour will also include medics and carers to ensure the veterans are kept as well as possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The Monte Cassino tour is scheduled to take place in May 2018 over the anniversary of the battle and is arranged in conjunction with travel experts Arena Travel.

Over the last seven years The Fyzz Facility has more than made good on its intention and has established itself as one of the preeminent lenders in the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Joint CEO Robert Jones continues \u201cThrough The Fyzz ISA, for the first time, we are offering UK savers the opportunity to participate in this exciting investment arena at a much lower entry point that has previously been possible.

The main advantage of this<br \/>\nconcept is the fact that DIAMOND VENEER blurres the main differences between real Diamonds<br \/>\nand the CZ, to a point of absolute no recognition. The fact that the CZ is no longer white, now even professional jewelers lost their expert eye advantage recognizing DIAMOND VENEER as fakes!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Is it Real, or is it Fake&#8221;? Diamond Veneer jewelry solves this important issue for well<br \/>\ndressed women that can afford the Real Deal, but wear the Fake for Travel. Why? Because Diamond Veneer is not very CZ White, but rather has the &#8220;G&#8221; color; in the Diamond Color scale. This advantage fools even the Jewelry experts we meet at JCK jewelry Trade Shows we attend.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This revolutionary Coating concept allows women (and Man) to wear the DIAMOND VENEER jewelry without worries of being detected as wearing fake!

Thinking through your purpose, reflecting on the activities from which you will derive meaning, giving consideration to how you will spend your time, and the type of goals you will pursue, will go a long way towards ensuring you thrive as you grow older.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Designed to empower soon-to-be and existing retirees to take control of their futures \u2013 financially, physically, socially, and mentally \u2013 End of the Retirement Age shares the inspirational stories of retirees and experts to show the colourful ways Australians are redefining ageing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Hear real-life stories from Australians in their 50s, 60s and 70s who \u2013 far from sitting at home in an armchair \u2013 are redefining what it means to be retired. From fundraising to sk ydiving to worldwide travel, their stories provide inspiration and motivation to help people plan their own unique futures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cOlder Australians can enhance their own lives \u2013 and the lives of others \u2013 by re-thinking their approach to retirement, and embarking on a more meaningful combination of work and play in their 50s, 60s and 70s,\u201d Mr Kennedy said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Mr Kennedy highlights the many benefits to individuals and society where more older Australians ease into retirement by cutting back their hours, while making room in their lives for other meaningful activities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cChange works best when it occurs over time, gradually giving people a chance to adjust to their new reality &#8211; retirement is no different. Taking a phased approach allows older Australians to tackle this major life transition at their own pace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">End of the Retirement Age offers practical, actionable advice in relation to finance, health, happiness, and the workplace. For anyone determined to ensure their sunset years are financially secure AND fulfilling, this book is an absolute must-read.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">End of the Retirement Age, RRP $29.95, is available from www.endoftheretirementage.com or via Amazon, Angus &amp; Robertson and Booktopia.

In this picturesque corner of the world, where the villagers enjoy life\u2019s little vices; drinking, tobacco, and a bountiful diet, the creaky signs of old age evade them. Imagine if you could bottle what they\u2019ve got.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">One man did.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The story of Acciaroli was uncovered by scientists, who identified the high concentration of rosemary in the local diet as one of the crucial variables in what could be helping the residents to live longer, healthier lives. This inspired entrepreneur, David Spencer-Percival, to set out on his quest to bottle the secret of the villagers for everyone to enjoy &#8211; the result is No. 1 Rosemary Water.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As pure as it can be, the drink comprises of just two ingredients, with absolutely no additives: ethically sourced pure rosemary botanical extract and pure springwater. Available in both still and sparkling variants, the drink is a delicious, stimulating, flavourful and tasteful way to enjoy rosemary, at any time of the day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">No. 1 Rosemary Water creator, Spencer-Percival, says: \u201cThere are countless studies attesting to the medicinal qualities of this super herb &#8211; and its legend has been cited in literature as an emblem of remembrance since ancient times. However, as delicious &#8211; and evidently powerful &#8211; as it is, it&#8217;s difficult in our modern lives to consume fresh rosemary with every meal and chew it raw like the villagers &#8211; but that shouldn&#8217;t mean we miss out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cI thought it would be better consumed another way and the idea of a drink developed from there. Our goal was to get the plant\u2019s unique and extraordinary health benefits into a beverage that would enable everyone to try and live the good life, longer, wherever they are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">After a visit to the village in 2016 with his wife, Bonita, Spencer-Percival enlisted the help of the world\u2019s best botanical scientists to extract the naturally forming, bioactive compounds in fresh rosemary. A strictly controlled and safely-guarded process, using the highest quality ingredients, the optimal blend of No. 1Rosemary Water was achieved only after countless trials to perfect the extractions and obtain the correct levels of active compounds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Spencer-Percival added; \u201cI was determined to ensure that we got the optimum levels of Rosmarinic Acid and Eucalyptol (1,8 Cineol), both of which are reported to play an important role in enhancing memory performance and are a natural form of glucosamine -, shown to help support healthy joints. This is a key differentiator thatsets No. 1 Rosemary apart &#8211; it\u2019s much more than just a flavoured water.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The story behind No. 1 RosemaryWater has also captured the attention of a range of academics, including Professor Mark Moss, Head of the Department of Psychology at the University of Northumbria \u2013 where he has studied the effects of rosemary for over 15 years. Of the launch of No. 1 Rosemary Water; Professor Moss said;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cIt is incredibly exciting times in the field of rosemary research. The proof is in the pudding with the villagers in Acciaroli, who\u2019s inspirational lifestyle and diet has captured the attention of scientists around the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cNo. 1 Rosemary Water is an exciting innovation that will enable more people to enjoy the bountiful benefits of this superherb much more &#8211; which is a fantastic thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In recent months, the appetite for Rosemary\u2019s #SuperHerb status has grown, with studies indicating that even the smell of rosemary can help boost memory performance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">RosemaryWater is available online, in 300ml and 750ml bottles through selected retailers including Harvey Nichols, Wholefoods and Ocado and is priced from \u00a32,95 per bottle.

Taking place at Plum + Spilt Milk, the Great Northern Hotel\u2019s destination restaurant situated in Kings Cross, Billy and Jack will challenge themselves to cook for 24 hours straight at London\u2019s first 24-hour supper club, in aid of Cancer Research UK to mark World Cancer Day on Sunday 4th February. Dishing up spectacular, tasty food from Saturday, 3rd to Sunday, 4th February, Billy and Jack aim to raise \u00a312,000 for their chosen charity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Cancer Research UK is close to the supper club kings\u2019 hearts for a good reason. On 22nd June 2017, Billy was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer after visiting the doctor with a persistent cough. Doctors found numerous growths on and around his thyroid gland and he was diagnosed with this rare form of cancer shortly after. Thankfully, after a long operation in July and with ongoing treatment, Billy is well on the road to recovery and causing more trouble than ever.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Kicking off at 11am on Saturday, 3rd February, Billy and Jack will prep and cook for nine consecutive supper club sittings, seeing them cooking through the night spanning brunch, lunch, dinner and late-night feasting to finish at 11am on Sunday. Each sitting will last two hours and will include a 3-course meal, plus nibbles including bread and THAT marmite butter, plus a drink or two. To keep spirits high, and the menu ever-changing, Billy and Jack will be joined by friends and fellow foodies from:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Plum + Spilt Milk\u2019s own award-winning team, headed by Mark Sargeant and Mike Denman<br \/>\nChef, food consultant, food writer, and cookery teacher, Ben Tish<br \/>\nChef, restaurateur and author, Dan Doherty<br \/>\nWinner of MasterChef 2016, Jane Devonshire<br \/>\nChef and author, Emily Roux<br \/>\nBroadcaster, Marie Claire Food Editor and co-founder of the food &amp; lifestyle brand Jackson &amp; Levine, Laura Jackson<br \/>\nChef, restaurateur, cookbook author and broadcaster, Clodagh McKenna<br \/>\nChef and author, Sophie Michell<br \/>\nChef and cancer survivor, John Lawson from Food by John Lawson<br \/>\nMore names to be announced in due course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Jeremy Robson, hotelier and owner of the Great Northern Hotel, comments: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be able to host such a unique event in aid of a cause that touches so many.

To mark World Cancer Day, Cancer Research UK is encouraging people to wear a Unity Band to help fund research into better treatments to bring more good news to more cancer patients. So, on this very special day, and for a cause extremely close to our hearts, we\u2019ll be cooking some of our favourite dishes and bringing people together. Classics, guilty pleasures and everything in-between this will be big, celebratory food fit for this very special occasion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Working with Cancer Research UK, it\u2019s Billy\u2019s aim to raise awareness of this rare form of cancer, as well as to give hope to those who have been diagnosed with the disease.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Billy, comments: \u201cIt\u2019s been a challenging year for me. My diagnosis happened to coincide with our first month full time in food as Billy and Jack, but with the support of family, friends and especially Jack, plus all the great doctors and nurses who&#8217;ve helped me along the way, it is a year coming to an end in a positive light. The Supper Club we&#8217;re planning is a way for us to raise awareness that survival rates from this disease are increasing; and to give back to a great charity that I have supported for many years, but now have even more reason to bring people together for such a good cause.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Tickets for Billy and Jack\u2019s 24-hour supper club are on sale now.

Specialist clinics in London have noticed 50% increase in enquiries since 2014 and this has been reflected in Mr Garaffa\u2019s clinic who has also witnessed men who have had procedures elsewhere that have left them with an uneven disposition along the penis or general lumpiness due to poor surgeon technique.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Mr Garaffa who is a Consultant Urological surgeon undertaking penis enlargement procedures says, \u201cPoor work that needs to be corrected would usually be from the dermal filler technique. It is a technique that is very popular amongst younger males because it is very quick and requires a tiny injection under the skin of the penis, very similar to a dermal filler used to smooth out wrinkles on the face. There is also very little down time if any and it is virtually pain free. However, the results can be devastating if the technique is not performed correctly and patients can experience risk of infection, haematoma, as well as a poor cosmetic result.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Another factor is that many of the practitioners are cosmetic doctors and therefore do not have as much experience in areas of the male anatomy such as the penis as they would do for example on the face. I see many patients per week in my clinic who are not happy with their penile size and want to go ahead with penile enlargement. It is not uncommon to see patients who are dissatisfied with the result of injection of dermal fillers they had had in the past and who would like to undergo penile enhancement with fat to get a more durable and realistic result\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The non-surgical girth enhancement which can take as little as 1 hour, otherwise known as the injection of dermal filler, uses hyaluronic acid injection and offers a gain of at least 30-40% in girth. The results are not permanent and the patient would need an annual top-up, as the hyaluronic acid tends to get absorbed with time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Mr Garaffa adds, \u201cIn addition to this procedure, further length can be added by removing with liposuction the suprapubic adioposity, which can bury the base of the penis, and by dividing the suspensory ligament of the penis, which anchors the penis to the pubic bone\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cAlthough the dermal filler is popular, more patients are now selecting the autologous fat injection where the fat is usually harvested with liposuction from the thighs or the lower abdomen of the patient, processed and then re-injected under the skin of the penis to produce an increase in girth. This procedure offers better results than the dermal fillers, as it produces a more natural looking cosmetic result and does not need to be repeated subsequently, as the fat does not tend to get absorbed. In my experience penile enhancement with fat yields the best cosmetic results, so I recommend the use of dermal fillers only in extremely lean patients, where it would not be possible to harvest an adequate amount of adipose tissue with liposuction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cAs with any procedure, adequate patient selection, counselling and preoperative management of patient expectations is paramount to achieve the highest satisfaction rates\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">EDINBURGH VOTED THE UK\u2019S FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS MARKET<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Christmas is no longer a single day in the calendar for us to celebrate, but a full season of events and traditions, from Christmas Light switch-ons and office Christmas parties, to festive themed restaurant menus, television programmes and even fashion trends (got your Christmas jumper ready this year?).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">But if you&#8217;re feeling more like Ebeneezer Scrooge than Elf, nothing will get you in the festive spirit quite like a trip to the Christmas Markets. Come November, the joyful Bavarian markets start to pop up across the UK, bringing with them toys, trinkets and treasures to make the perfect gifts for just about everyone, as well as plenty of delicious food and tempting tipples. Christmas Markets in some cities have even taken the festivities a step further, with unique attractions to make them extra special.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In celebration of the UK Christmas markets many Brits flock to in the winter time McCarthy &amp; Stone, leading retirement housebuilder, have surveyed their customers and followers to find which of the most most-Googled Christmas markets came out as the all-time favourite.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The overall vote breakdown of top destinations is as follows:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Edinburgh &#8211; 23.04 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bath &#8211; 15.71 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Birmingham &#8211; 15.18 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">York &#8211; 10.47 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bristol &#8211; 8.90 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Nottingham &#8211; 7.85 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Liverpool &#8211; 6.28 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Cardiff &#8211; 4.71 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Leeds &#8211; 4.19 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Exeter &#8211; 3. 66 per cent<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Find more information about the destinations visit the landing page here:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">https:\/\/www.mccarthyandstone.co.uk\/life-and-living\/explore\/lifestyle\/top-10-christmas-markets\/<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Edinburgh came out top, and it&#8217;s not surprising condsiding the location offers two markts on George Street and East Princess Street. George Street Markets offer the traditional Christmas Market shopping experience, with a huge array of festive gifts, decorations, and tasty treats to get you in the festive spirit. East Princess Street features the Bavarian Christmas markets, complete with chalets serving German sausages, Gluhwein and more gift ideas than you can shake a candy stick at.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bath came second with 16 per cent of the vote and this year, the city went all out. Their Christmas Market has 200 wooden chalets selling all the gifts, food and decorations you can carry. More than 80% of Bath&#8217;s chalets will be run by businesses from the South West this year, so it&#8217;s a great chance to support local business while Christmas shopping.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Third place was given to Birmingham (15 per cent of the vote); perhaps for it&#8217;s huge range of festive decorations, toys, baubles, jewellery, accessories, hats and sweet treats at the many stalls.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">House of Fraser Christmas ad generates highest email engagement levels \u2013 Return Path provides insight into retailers\u2019 campaigns<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Using its network of email data*, Return Path has revealed how successful \u2013 or unsuccessful \u2013 email campaigns supporting the launch of some major retail brands\u2019 Christmas TV adverts have been this year. In addition to the performance of the campaigns themselves, the analysis also considers whether there has been any form of post-launch \u201chalo\u201d effect for these programs. Extracting 10 weeks of campaign data running from the beginning of October to early-December, with the TV ad launches falling roughly in the middle of this period, Return Path examined the impact for John Lewis, M&amp;S, Sainsbury\u2019s, Boots and House of Fraser as they launched their Christmas TV adverts, identifying how many emails were opened, read and deleted. This insight provides a good indication of how retailers\u2019 Christmas adverts have engaged with their audience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The key findings are:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">House of Fraser has enjoyed the highest email read rate during the Christmas period, with an indexed read rate of 113 (benchmark=100), followed by Sainsbury\u2019s with 110.<br \/>\nThe performance of John Lewis\u2019 (102) and M&amp;S\u2019 (99) launch emails were broadly flat, while Boots significantly under-performed against the sender\u2019s benchmark (92).<br \/>\nHowever, the performance of these 3 \u201clower performing\u201d senders should be considered against a context of them sending to a large portion of their respective audiences (over 70%), while House of Fraser and Sainsbury\u2019s both took more targeted\/segmented approaches.<br \/>\nGuy Hanson, Senior Director of Professional Services at Return Path, has the following comments:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cChristmas adverts have become the most eagerly-awaited TV adverts of the year in the UK, with retailers under growing pressure to \u2018win\u2019 in the race to claim the hearts \u2013 and purses \u2013 of their viewers. This year, we have seen top brands tap into people\u2019s sentimentality, romance and sense of fun, with adverts depicting family celebrations, a child\u2019s imaginary friend and festive singalongs. John Lewis is often proclaimed to be the king of the Christmas ads, but is this still the case? If you look at how email subscribers engaged with these brands following the launch of their adverts, the answer is \u201cpossibly not!\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cAccording to email data, House of Fraser had the highest email read rates following the launch of its Christmas advert, even though (or perhaps because) they were the last retailer to reveal their advert. One differentiator was this it is the only sender that didn\u2019t explicitly reference \u201cChristmas Ad\u201d in the subject line. This touches on a broader 2017 trend &#8211; adverts that implied references to Christmas with words such as \u2018festive\u2019, \u2018sparkle\u2019 and \u2018advent\u2019 actually generated higher read rates than those that explicitly referred to Christmas. This could just be down to subscriber fatigue, with Christmas promotions often starting in October \u2013 and well before Black Friday\/Cyber Monday has even happened. But it could also be a reflection of a more secular Britain, where Christmas has decreasing resonance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cWe\u2019ve also seen other brands showcasing smart use of dynamic content in their Christmas ads. For example, Asda is using a Christmas countdown which refreshes when the email is reopened, whilst Norwegian Airways is running an email advent calendar with daily \u2018reveals\u2019 of prizes or special offers. This active, intuitive content adds an element of fun to the emails, which subscribers increasingly respond to, and both of these senders are seeing the benefit. In the case of Norwegian Airlines, the average indexed read rates for these emails are running at 176 (benchmark=100), while negative metrics such as deleted unread rates and spam filtering rates are much lower.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cSainsbury\u2019s has also been running a highly engaging promotion, where consumers select their festive alter egos (\u201cChief of Christmas\u201d, \u201cRushing Rudolf\u201d, \u201cFestive Fanatic\u201d, etc.) and we are anticipating these selections will be used to inform the types of offers these customers receive during the festive period. Initial subscriber response has been highly positive, with read rates of up 70 percent higher than this sender\u2019s benchmark.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">*Please note, where we have examined individual senders, the average performance metrics have been presented as benchmarks, and the individual variances are set against this benchmark (i.e. if we talk about an indexed Read rate of 110 then it was 10% higher than the benchmark \u2013 100 &#8211; for the period). We defined \u201cChristmas-themed\u201d emails as all of the ones which could be identified as such (e.g. references to \u201cChristmas\u201d, \u201cXmas\u201d, \u201cFestive\u201d, etc.). We also categorised each campaign by the way the theme was referenced, i.e. \u201cExplicit\u201d (\u201cChristmas\u201d) or \u201cImplied\u201d (\u201cFestive\u201d, \u201cMistletoe\u201d, \u201cAdvent\u201d, etc.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bowflex\u00ae SelectTech\u00ae 560 Dumbbells replaces an entire rack of Dumbbells \u2013 a fully interactive experience with integrated and proprietary 3DT&#x2122; electronic sensor features a rep counter &gt;&gt;&gt; www.fitness-superstore.co.uk\/bowflex-560-selecttech-dumbbells-pair www.bowflexinternational.com FACEBOOK | TWITTER | GOOGLE+ | YOUTUBE | PINTEREST | INSTAGRAM Bowflex\u00ae SelectTech\u00ae 560 Dumbbells The Bowflex\u00ae SelectTech\u00ae 560 Dumbbells are the first-ever smart dumbbells, offering [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":378749,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[7831,10980,6686],"class_list":["post-378748","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-clubs","tag-christmas","tag-gifts","tag-guide"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/378748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=378748"}],"version-history":[{"count":66,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/378748\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":639080,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/378748\/revisions\/639080"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/378749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=378748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=378748"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=378748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
