Pension (lodging)
A pension (, ; ) is a type of guest house or boarding house. This term is typically used in Continental European countries, in areas of North Africa and the Middle East that formerly had large European expatriate populations, and in some parts of South America such as Brazil and Paraguay. Pensions can also be found in South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines. In contrast to bed and breakfasts, more usual in the United States, pensions typically offer not only breakfast, but also lunch, dinner, and sometimes even tea. Rather than paying for the room and each meal separately, guests select a plan which either comprises overnight accommodation, breakfast, lunch and dinner (''full pension'' / ''full board'') or the preceding minus the lunch (''half board / demi-pension'' / ''half pension''). These small businesses may offer special rates for travellers staying longer than a week, may be located in historic buildings, can be family-run, and are generally cheaper than other lodgings, s ...

Prostitute
Prostitution is the business or practice of engaging in sexual activity in exchange for payment. The definition of "sexual activity" varies, and is often defined as an activity requiring physical contact (e.g., sexual intercourse, non-penetrative sex, oral sex, etc.) with the customer. The requirement of physical contact also creates the risk of transferring diseases. Prostitution is sometimes described as sexual services, commercial sex or, colloquially, hooking. It is sometimes referred to euphemistically as "the world's oldest profession" in the English-speaking world. A person who works in this field is called a prostitute, or more inclusively, a sex worker. Prostitution occurs in a variety of forms, and its legal status varies from country to country (sometimes from region to region within a given country), ranging from being an enforced or unenforced crime, to unregulated, to a regulated profession.

Abdulrahim El-Tanir
ʻAbd al-Raḥīm ( ALA-LC romanization of ar, عبد الرحيم) is a male Muslim given name, and in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words ''ʻabd'', ''al-Raḥīm'', one of the names of God in the Qur'an, which give rise to the Muslim theophoric names. It means "servant of the merciful". Because the letter ''r'' is a sun letter, the letter ''l'' of the ''al-'' is assimilated to it. Thus, although the name is written in Arabic with letters corresponding to ''Abd al-Rahim'', the standard pronunciation corresponds to ''Abd ar-Rahim''. Alternative transliterations include ''Abdel Raheem'', ''Abdur Raheem'', ''Abdul Rahiem'' and other regional linguistic variations, and subject to variant spacing or hyphenation. It may refer to: Given name *Abd al-Rahim ibn al-Husain al-'Iraqi (1325–1403), Shafi'i scholar of hadith *Abdul Rahim Khan-I-Khana (1556–1627), Indian poet * Abdur Rahim (judge) (1867–1952), Indian judge and politician *Abdurrahim bey Hagverdiyev ...
