Today let’s try to practice some Russian tongue twisters! 
Tongue twisters are a great tool to improve your pronunciation, focus on difficult sounds and increase your speech speed (and more importantly – make it clearer). 
Try to repeat after me (I’m reading each one 2 times – super slow and then closer to normal speed):

от тОпота копЫт пЫль пО полю летИт.

на дворЕ травА, на травЕ дровА. не рубИ дровА на травЕ дворА!

кукУшка кукушОнку купИла капюшОн, надЕл кукушОнок капюшОн, в капюшОне кукушОнок смешОн.

These tongue twisters focus on different Russian sounds. Please try to articulate them as clear as possible, don’t chase the speed. Good luck!

El yoga con calor (también llamado Hot Yoga) hace que los pulmones y el corazón trabajen más y, como en las sesiones sin calor, esta práctica te ayuda a mejorar la fuerza y la flexibilidad.

* Beneficio Nº1. Mejora la flexibilidad. Estirar cuando los músculos se han calentado (como se hace en el Hot Yoga) aumenta la flexibilidad y mejora la amplitud de movimiento de las articulaciones. Un estudio de marzo de 2013 del Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research demostró que, tras 8 semanas, las personas que practicaron hot yoga tenían más flexibilidad en los hombros, la zona lumbar y los isquiotibiales que el grupo de control. La flexibilidad ayuda a adoptar determinadas posturas de yoga con más facilidad, sobre todo las que requieren un estiramiento profundo. Además, el yoga fortalece los músculos. El mismo estudio demostró que los participantes podían levantar más en peso muerto.

* Beneficio Nº2. Aumenta la capacidad pulmonar. Como el yoga se centra en técnicas de respiración y te enseña a concentrarte al inspirar y espirar, entrena los pulmones para retener más aire. Respirar hondo habitualmente permite que entre más oxígeno en el flujo sanguíneo, mantiene los pulmones sanos y aumenta la capacidad pulmonar, que suele disminuir con la edad. El pranayama es un tipo de ejercicios de yoga concreto que se centra en controlar la respiración durante un periodo de tiempo determinado. En él, se trabaja la respiración abdominal, la torácica y la clavicular, lo que te ayuda a maximizar la entrada de oxígeno.

#26  高校野球 / The National High School Baseball Championship of Japan // N4 Level

When the end of the working week arrives, it can be a little harder to keep going.

If you work from Monday to Friday, you might find yourself thinking about the weekend as your brain and body get ready to rest. You may feel that you're getting less work done.

You might even feel this way near the end of each work day.

And a study from the US has found that yes, it's true — we aren't as productive and we make more mistakes in the afternoons, especially on Fridays.

While most of us could probably have guessed that result, the researchers said most studies in the past have just asked workers about their feelings related to their productivity.

But this one actually used data based on computer use, including how fast people typed and the numbers of typos they made.

The researchers, from Texas A&M University, looked at the computer use of 789 employees working from the office of a big company in Texas.

They studied them for two years and looked at their computer use at different times of the day and week.

And they found that computer use "dropped significantly" on Fridays.

One of the researchers, Taehyun Roh, said: "Employees were less active in the afternoons, and made more typos in the afternoons — especially on Fridays."

The authors added that results like this should encourage bosses to think about flexible working arrangements or four-day working weeks to get the best from their employees.
