BESANT WOMEN'S COLLEGE -ANNIE'S LITERARY CLUB

Speakers Club is a new path where the concept of language itself is going to be deconstructed. In our club we explore the meanings hidden deep beneath the structure of language.  We shall attempt to explore the true essence of expression buried under the forms defined as language which actually happen to be a web of deceit created only to behead the instinctual signifying images.  The members of Speaker Club are thrown into the new world of free speech in which they must embark on a voyage inwards, in search of artistic expressions that ultimately make them the coherent human beings.  More than speech the club intends to discover what creates speech and how one should remain truthful to her innate authentic self and how one should never, under any circumstance, contrive to defile that genuine core of being.           The core of reality shall be questioned and criticized in the Club through various means of discussions, verbattles, and debates, elocutions without any biased or u

Once upon a time I was a total cardio bunny. The only squats I did were to reach food at the bottom the fridge and I was certain that if I so much as placed a toe in the weights room I would turn into Arnold Schwarzenegger. Today I’m fascinated by the social barriers that prevent women engaging with strength training, from the differing ways men and women use the gym to the stigma around female muscularity. Additionally, I’m interested in the impact of social media on breaking down some of these barriers. Testimonials of the empowering potential of strength training for women are regularly published in the media and online, and popular hashtags girls who lift and strong not skinny have over 32 million posts on Instagram combined.  This points to the fact that online fitness communities are a potentially powerful tool for addressing stigma and motivating women to take up lifting.

As the Empire grew, most of its amphitheatres remained concentrated in the Latin-speaking western half, while in the East spectacles were mostly staged in other venues such as theatres or stadia .  In the West, Amphitheatres were built as part of Romanization efforts by providing a focus for the Imperial cult, by private benefactors, or by the local government of colonies or provincial capitals as an attribute of Roman municipal status. A large number of modest arenas were built in Roman North Africa, where most of the architectural expertise was provided by the Roman military.   Wikipedia

The Citadel is considered an important site because it has had a long history of occupation by many great civilizations. Most of the buildings still visible at the site are from the Roman, Byzantine, and Umayyad periods. The major buildings at the site are the Temple of Hercules, a Byzantine church, and the Umayyad Palace. Wikipedia

Some of the oldest known structures which have served as citadels were built by the Indus Valley Civilisation, where the citadel represented a centralised authority. The main citadel in Indus Valley was almost 12 meters tall. The purpose of these structures, however, remains debated. Though the structures found in the ruins of Mohenjo-daro were walled, it is far from clear that these structures were defensive against enemy attacks. Rather, they may have been built to divert flood waters. Several settlements in Anatolia, including the Assyrian city of Kaneš in modern-day Kültepe, featured citadels. Kaneš' citadel contained the city's palace, temples, and official buildings. The citadel of the Greek city of Mycenae was built atop a highly-defensible rectangular hill and was later surrounded by walls in order to increase its defensive capabilities Wikipedia
