Cleo Bachelor Of The Year
''Cleo'' is a Malaysian, Singaporean, Thai and Indonesian monthly women's magazine. The magazine was founded in 1972 in Australia; the Australia and New Zealand editions were discontinued in February 2016. Aimed at an older audience than the teenage-focused Australian magazine '' Dolly'', ''Cleo'' was published by Bauer Media Group in Sydney and was known for its ''Cleo'' Bachelor of the Year award. In June 2020, ''Cleo'' was acquired by the Sydney investment firm Mercury Capital. History and profile Launched in November 1972 under the direction of Ita Buttrose, the magazine's founding editor, ''Cleo'' became one of Australia's most iconic titles due to its mix of seemingly controversial content, including the first nude male centerfold (following American Cosmopolitan's nude centerfold of Burt Reynolds six months' earlier) and detailed sex advice. According to the magazine's editorial philosophy, ''"Cleo gets women, and it also strikes the perfect balance, offers a bright, lig ...

Gags
A gag is usually an item or device designed to prevent speech, often as a restraint device to stop the subject from calling for help and keep its wearer silent. This is usually done by blocking the mouth, partially or completely, or attempting to prevent the tongue, lips, or jaw from moving in the normal patterns of speech. The more "effective" a gag appears to be, the more hazardous it is. For example duct tape is a fairly effective method of keeping a person's mouth shut but can be hazardous if the subject cannot breathe freely through the nose (for example if they have the common cold). For this reason, a gagged person should never be left alone. The use of gags is commonly depicted in soap operas and crime fiction, particularly in comics and novels. It is also often used in movies, such as ''Raiders of the Lost Ark'' and its sequel ''Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull''. Courts have been known to gag certain people, such as the civil rights activist Bobby ...

People From The Gold Coast, Queensland
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
