“Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.”

It’s pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness. Poverty and wealth have both failed. ~Frank McKinney “Kin” Hubbard

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want. ~Margaret Young

Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible. ~St. Augustine

Can anything be so elegant as to have few wants, and to serve them one’s self? ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. ~Logan Pearsall Smith, Afterthoughts, 1931

SWEDEN
Anders Holst, www.andersholst.com, based in New York City, this critically acclaimed

been waiting for. With his latest release, ROMANTIKA, Anders fuses sophisticated lyrics with lingering melodies. His memorable songs explore themes of romance, isolation, optimism, and the complexity of interpersonal relationships, delivered in a smooth and enticing tone.

BELARUS:
Alexandre “Sasha” Toubolets, President of UNSRC RBC. An accomplished athlete, Sasha speaks several languages i.e. Russian, French and Spanish fluently. The fact that he runs the RBC also tells you he is very well-read, and has an embarrassingly in-depth knowledge in variety of cultural subjects i.e classical music (I quoted an American friend here). All of the above may give you a hint what he does professionally…! In Finnish we also would say that he is “parkettien partaveitsi”. Kaisa will happy to translate in person.

Phoenix – Nov 11 2016

Julia Postolov Kantor is a member of EuroCircle LA.
You are all invited by her on a journey through French music as you’ve never heard it before. From the sounds of a quaint Parisian café to the Moroccan souk, along countless hearts and radio dials across Eastern Europe and beyond. This music has captivated the world.

Paris Chansons is Los Angeles’s premier French performing group. They are known for their original renditions of French favorites, from Aznavour, Brel, Dassin, Piaf, and Montand all the way to contemporary artists such as Zaz. Their exhilarating performances are punctuated by traditional jazz standards in addition to classics in Russian, Italian, and other languages.

Three multilingual singers bring an unparalleled diversity to their shows. Julia Kantor, originally from the Ukraine, lived and studied in France where she discovered in French music a soul connection that still imbues her every performance. She entrances from the stage with a sultry voice and dynamic presence. Together with her husband, Jacob, a Russian-born singer/songwriter, they launched Paris Chansons. Max Cohen grew up in Morocco, where he was steeped in French music, particularly the songs of Enrico Macias. Cohen’s rich, velvety tone delivers beautifully nuanced renditions of his favorites, complete with a signature North African lilt.

Superb musicianship anchors the ensemble, effortlessly moving from jazzy improvisation to slow-burning balladry to blistering gypsy fervor. All seasoned pros, the musicians include Endre Balogh on violin, Adam Cohen on upright bass, Jacob Kantor on guitar, Jeff Lams on piano, and Sinclair Lott on drums. Paris Chansons takes you on a musical journey without having to leave your seat. They always deliver a spectacular celebration of French and international music.

EuroCircle/HYVÄ Nordic Walk in Central Park –

‘AMP UP YOUR WALK IN THE PARK’

HYVÄ Nordic Walking has introduced the activity to New York and has partnered with EuroCircle for an exclusive group walk.

They use a wireless audio system to provide real time teaching cues and a music soundtrack.  You just need to bring along a set of earphones to plug into the receiver.  They provide the Nordic Walking poles.

This event is limited to 10 people. If they sell out there will be a second walk on Sunday, October 16th at noon. Cost is $10 cash payable before the walk.
PLEASE LET ALEXANDRA KNOW ASAP IF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND email: newyork (at) eurocircle (dot) com

Have you ever Nordic Walked or know of someone that does?  You probably do as 12 million people from Scandinavia, Germany, Austria and the UK enjoy Nordic Walking as a fitness workout.  Now you can enjoy this low impact, Finnish cardio activity outdoors in Central Park.

There is a brief warm up and instruction period followed by a relaxed pace on the Bridle paths around the reservoir.  We will cover 3.6 km in 45 minutes while taking in the fall foliage. Nordic Walking achieves the same intensity as running but without the stress and high impact on joints.  Join fellow expats for a ‘walk in the park’.

What to wear:  Wear layers for the fall weather.  Comfortable walking shoes or sneakers.  Do not bring a handbag.  A bag pack or belt bag is fine.  Please arrive 15 minutes early so we can adjust your equipment. Hydrate (try to use bathroom facilities before the walk).

Instructor:  Sonja Johansson

QUOTE from their website: “When done correctly, Nordic walking can burn up to 40 percent more calories than regular walking, reduce knee and joint stress, boost oxygen consumption (which, in turn, benefits the brain) and help realign the body after a day hunched at a desk. It can even appeal to the exercise-averse since it feels easier than other exercises that require equal effort, says Dr. Pam Roberts, a family physician who teaches Nordic walking as a health and wellness coach at The Summit Medical Fitness Center in Kalispell, Montana. “[Nordic walkers] are getting a higher level of fitness, but they’re not feeling the drudgery of it,” she says.

More than a hobby, the sport – which has a low risk for injury and can be done virtually anywhere that’s walkable, from shopping malls to city sidewalks – can be therapeutic for a wide range of health conditions, including fibromyalgia, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and diabetic peripheral neuropathy, a condition in which people’s damaged nerves can make it difficult to sense the ground when walking. Poles change that, Roberts says.

Nordic walking can also relieve people with orthopedic issues. One of Roberts’ clients, Diana Dorris, for example, first tried the activity a few years ago after all but giving up on being able to walk comfortably again. The now 66-year-old in Kalispell, Montana, had undergone two hip replacements and used canes to get around when she had to; otherwise, she called on others to help out. “I was bent over and really hobbling,” she says. Then, she attended Roberts’ seminar on Nordic walking, and her outlook changed.”
