Whether you're registered or not, you can access "Who is online" information from three different places.   On our Home page , click "Who is online now?" link at the right side of the page, under "Shortcuts".       On ANY page, click See who is online now link in the footer (the dark blue area at the bottom of the page).      On our Forum page , check "Who is online" data at the bottom of the page. Moreover, this is the place where you can see what mods and admins are online. Admins will appear in bold red font, moderators - in bold blue.</description></item><item><title>Retro-mobile</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/RetroMobile/lkmqp/post.htm</link><pubDate>Sat, 14 Nov 2009 21:52:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:971616</guid><dc:creator>ant_222</dc:creator><description>Hello all,   There was a retro mobile parade on my town&amp;#39;s day, so I took some some photos there.

 but when I was googling with that word, I found there are many sexual images.

I&amp;#39;m looking for the translation of the Italian pescaturismo which, if it were to be literally tranlated, would be &amp;quot; fishtourism &amp;quot; or &amp;quot; fishingtourism &amp;quot; (one word. pesca= fishing ; turismo= tourism).   Basically, the idea is that people pay for a day trip on a small boat (not a trawler -- below is a picture of these boats), they are provided with fishing equipment, taught how to fish, and enjoy what they&amp;#39;ve caught for lunch. The income from this activity is a significant part of some professional fishermen&amp;#39;s income (small/familiar business, of course).

This is very important as it will help you to relax the neck muscles while taking them through the normal neck range of motion.    *** first neck exercise is called Cervical Flexion (bringing your chin to your chest) and Cervical Extension 
(looking up to the ceiling). You want to start by tucking your chin in
and gently bringing your head foward and attempting to touch the chin
to the chest. Next, gently bend the head backwards as far as it will
go. Repeat this exercise 5 times.     *** next neck exercise is called Lateral Flexion .
Bring your right ear to your right shoulder as far as you are able to.

   The Ground  

 The cricket ground is an oval grass field (as
opposed to a baseball "diamond") with a thin rectangular area in the middle
called the "pitch". The entire ground is symmetrical about the pitch. If
you were to stand on your head and look at the picture below you'd see what 
we mean. We urge you to verify this for yourself as soon as possible.

Victory: Would you mind going to the back of the gate with me? After going to the back of it Victory: The gates says “ANNO 1670″. It is in Dutch but Portuguese. It was because the Dutch successfully kicked out the Portuguese from Melaka in 1670. In a word, Melacca was conquered by the Portuguese in 1510, and then Portuguese was kicked out by the Dutch in 1670. Finally the Dutch handed it to the British in early 19th century, and then the british demolished this fortress in 1806.
