The Samba originates from Brazil. It was and is danced during the street festivals and celebrations such as Carnival in Rio.. The music has a joyful contagious rhythm which makes even non dancers want to get up and dance. It was first introduced in the U.S. in a Broadway play called “Street Carnival” in the late twenties. The festive style and mood of the dance kept it alive and popular to this day and the rhythm pervades popular music. The South America Samba is slower and more fluid than its American counterpart, which is danced to a faster tempo. Both styles have the basic “Samba Bounce”. The beautiful music of the Gypsy Kings epitomizes the addictive Samba style but many modern singers have Samba rhythms.

The Polka was originally a Czech peasant dance, developed in Eastern Bohemia (now part of Czechoslovakia). Bohemian historians believe that the polka was invented by a peasant girl named Anna Slezak in 1834 one Sunday for her amusement. It was composed to a folk song “Uncle Nimra brought a white horse.” Anna called the step “Madera” because of its quickness and liveliness. The dance was first introduced into the ballrooms of Prague in 1835. The music is played in 2/4 time (1 & 2) and sounds happy and playful. The name of the dance (pulka) is Czech for “half-step”, referring to the rapid shift from one foot to the other.
Polka is danced around the room in a series of small and fast chasses (side steps) with a distinctive hop, turning about 360 degrees every 4 beats. In 1840, Raab, a dancing teacher of Prague, danced the polka at the Odéon Theatre in Paris where it was a tremendous success. French dance instructors seized upon it and Polkamania ensued. Dance academies were swamped and in desperation recruited ballet girls from the Paris Opéra as dancing partners to help teach the polka. This naturally attracted many young men who were interested in things other than dancing. Consequently, manners and morals in the dance pavilions were suspect so many parents forbade their daughters from dancing with anyone but close friends of the family.
The polka was introduced in England in the mid 1800s. When it came to the USA it was taken up by the country western set and is still danced in Country Competitions today. The western style Polka is danced with less turning, with very little hopping and somewhat resembles the two-step in its execution with a lot of turns for the woman. After WW2, American/Polish immigrants adopted the more European variant as their “cultural” dance and it is not uncommon to see it danced by young and old at Polish weddings today. The Polka was standard fare on the Lawrence Welk Show. Most people will remember it as the dance Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner did swirling around the ballroom in “The King and I”.

The Merengue is one of the most popular latin dances and the national dance of the Dominican Republic, and also to some extent, of Haiti. There are two popular versions of the origin of the Merengue. The first story alleges the dance originated with slaves who were chained together and, of necessity, were forced to drag one leg as they cut sugar to the beat of drums. The second says that a great war hero was wounded in the leg during one of the many revolutions in the Dominican Republic. He was welcomed home with a victory celebration and, out of sympathy, everyone dancing felt obligated to limp and drag one foot.
The Merengue is a spot dance, meaning it doesn’t move around the dance floor so it is ideally suited to small, crowded dance floors. Merengue is a fun dance with simple steps so it is easy to learn quickly and the “1-2” march-like rhythm makes it a favorite throughout the Caribbean, Latin America and South America. It is the perfect dance to learn for those planning a honeymoon in any of these regions of the world. The Merengue was introduced to the United States in the New York area and like the other Latin dances is here to stay. You can merengue any night of the week in any Latino bar in the area.

The Cha-cha is the newest of the “Latin” dances. It is a true American dance, developed in the dance studios in the early 50s as a mid-tempo variant between Rumba (slow) and Mambo (fast). It is believed to have started as a step in Mambo – a triple step to replace the slow one to accommodate slower musical rhythms. This developed into an entirely new dance. Slower modern music has often inspired the evolution of popular dances such as Single Swing into Triple Swing and Quickstep into Slow Foxtrot. Cha-cha music is slower than Mambo/ Salsa but not much. It it quite a common upbeat musical tempo. The dance is alive and well in ballrooms and studios today. It is flashy, sassy and full of itself. The Cha-cha styling is very similar to Rumba and Mambo. Like most Latin dances, your weight is forward and most of the movement occurs below the ribcage. The steps are small, taken with the ball of the foot first to better execute the hip action commonly known as “cuban motion”. Cha-cha music is composed in 4/4 time. The rhythm is danced 2-3-4 & 1 ( “rock step cha cha cha”.) Cha-cha is a flirty dance great for couples or just to catch someone’s eye!

Most Disco dances have strong roots in Swing. The Hustle is believed to have originated in New York in 1970. It went through many incarnations in the seventies, with line dances for groups of people, solo movements that came and went, and partnership dances. These partnership dances included The Basic Hustle, Latin, Spanish, Tango Hustle and the most popular version — Street Hustle, a three-count or Swing Hustle that originated in California by skaters in Venice and Malibu. John Travolta and “Saturday Night Fever” gave the dance its place in American pop culture. Hustle is danced to contemporary pop, Hip Hop, or “House” dance music over the last 20 years. Most people dance New York style or Swing Hustle. It is a fast and reactive dance with an emphasis on armstyling and numerous hand holding positions. The lady spins almost continuously, while her partner leads her back and forth in a “slotted” linear formation. The hustle is what kept kept partner dancing alive during the lean ’70s and early ’80s.

Although often associated with the style of Fred Astaire or Ginger Rogers, the Foxtrot was actually introduced into the mainstream by Harry Fox in 1913. Foxtrot is a “Ballroom” or Smooth dance, traveling around the line of dance (the perimeter of the room in a counterclockwise direction). Foxtrot is a lot like walking or strolling . Musically it is very easy to hear the Foxtrot rhythm. Foxtrot is an extremely useful dance socially and can be danced to a variety of jazzy musical styles. American Style Foxtrot has a fun “theatrical” quality because the couples can open up to allow for spinning the women. Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly both used the long, smooth movements of Foxtrot to cover a lot of ground gracefully in their routines. The basic beginner rhythm of Foxtrot is Slow-Slow-Quick-Quick. Higher level is often danced Slow-Quick-Quick.

Perez Prado is thought to have introduced the Mambo at La Tropicana nightclub in Havana in 1943. Mambo Mania hit when Prado recorded the song, “Mambo Jambo”. The dance appeared in the United States in New York’s Park Plaza Ballroom, a favorite hangout of dance enthusiasts from Harlem. The Mambo gained in popularity and in the 1950s was taught in dance studios, resorts, and nightclubs in New York and Miami. In more recent times Mambo has also evolved into Salsa. Salsa is a street version of Mambo. Musically the main difference is that Mambo music holds on the one beat and Salsa music hits on one beat. The steps are pretty much the same. Mambo tends to be sharper in the footwork more time is spent in closed hold and the man breaks on 2. Salsa tends to be sexier, characteristically it has little kick like embellishments, more time is spent in a two handed or apart position and the man breaks on 1. Whether you call it Mambo or Salsa, the small steps are taken ball of foot first with the knees flexible to allow for the hip action known as cuban motion. Mambo is the forefather of Cha Cha. It also shares many patterns in common with the other Latin dances Rumba and Bolero. Mambo/Salsa is fun and flirty and socially is a great dance to learn if you like Latino music.
Tango music originated from Argentine, Brazilian and Spanish influences. The earliest traces of the Tango date back to the latter half of the 19th century-to the Milonga, an Argentine folk dance with Moorish, Arabic and Spanish ancestry. Years later, the Argentine Gauchos (streetwise single men) danced a modified version of the Milonga, in the seedy bars and bordellos of Buenos Aires. The dance hold in Milonga is called “close embrace”, where the couple are literally dancing chest to chest. This was considered far too risque for polite society.
The dance was later taken on by renowned ballroom dance performers, Verne and Irene Castle. They toned it down so that it could be danced in a socially acceptable manner. The International and American Tango danced in ballrooms today developed from this offshoot. The dance’s unique style is expressed in quick double takes with the head and stalking panther-like movements complete with lunges and dips.
“Tangueros” (Tango dancers and singers) did not fair well under Peron period but performance Tango known as “Fantasia” developed in the mid 1950s and sustained interest in Tango in general around the world. As a performance based dance, Fantasia uses many acrobatic movements such as lifts, dips, twirls and of course the characteristic hooking and kicking steps called “Ganchos” and “Boleos”. Fantasia can be classified as its own variant, though experienced dancers can carefully execute Fantasis moves while dancing socially.
When the Argentine Tango crowd refers to “Tango”, they totally ignore the American, International and Fantasia offshoots. Instead, they are referring to the social dance style used in “Milongas” (Argentine Tango dance parties) around the world. There are three basic types of social Tango — Milonga, Valtz and Tango. Each of these three has its own distinctive features and music. Milonga, the original, is danced very close, to very fast music and has a lot of staccato foot changes and taps. You dance on every beat of the music. Valtz is danced to Viennese Waltz music, hence the name. It is more flowy and is danced more frequently on the first beat of a measure or the “1” of “1-2-3”. Tango is the most sensual of the three, danced to slower, moodier music. It is therefore more precise. Controlled smooth movements allow for the intricate footwork so often associated with this dance. What makes this dance truly unique is that the gentleman can set up situations for the woman to “play” or do embellishments. Whether one dances in the “close embrace” or in the more formal ballroom hold is decided by each couple. Often at Milongas each style are played in sets of three or four and a couple will tend to dance the set together.
Tango has a flavor quite unlike any other dance. The basic rhythm is an 8 count Slow-Slow-Quick-Quick-Slow. The music itself leads to excess. It is a dance that is ironically both showy, yet very intimate. Tango has also been immortalized in such films as “The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”(Rudolf Valentino), “Scent of a Woman” (Al Pacino), “True Lies” (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and “Assassination Tango” (Robert Duvall).

It is the state of impaired cognition, grogginess, and disorientation commonly experienced on awakening from sleep.
This is why most experts suggest avoiding naps between 40 and 60 minutes in length.
MORE IDEAS FROM THE ARTICLE
... will depend on several variables:
There's no such thing as a single perfect time to take a nap, but a commonly recommended window. For most people, early afternoon is best.
We are biphasic sleepers: we pack in most of our sleep at night, but most people's brains experience a dip in alertness somewhere between 1 and 4 p.m.
Plan your nap for the time when your body is naturally sleepier and you’re more likely to fall asleep.
Everybody, no matter if they live in a warm or cold climate or if they’ve eaten a big meal, experiences these subtle changes at bedtime and, to a lesser extent, in the afternoon — usually around six to eight hours after waking. For most people, “prime napping time falls between 1 and 3 p.m.,”
The most natural time to take a nap, based on our circadian rhythms, is in the afternoon sometime between 2 and 4pm.
The ideal time to snooze is when a nap would contain a good balance of slow wave and REM sleep. This balance typically occurs 6 to 8 hours after waking.
Don't eat any heavy foods within two hours of bed time.
If you get too hungry as bedtime creeps around, there are a few foods that are okay to eat before bed, and can even help you sleep—like bananas, oatmeal, and whole wheat bread, to name a few.

Joshua Scott wanted to end his high school career with a Big 8 title. The 6-foot-5 Blanche Ely forward had gone without one — until Saturday.
Scott, a senior, led the Tigers with 21 points and was named the tournament’s most valuable player as Blanche Ely (18-6) held on to beat rival Dillard (17-5), 67-64, at Fort Lauderdale High.
“It was really important, and that’s one of our biggest rivals,” Scott said. “This is my first time winning Big 8 for all my four years, so it was very important to me. First time since 2015 [for Ely], so it’s really important.”
Ely and Dillard have Big 8 history together. The two programs, which have combined for 12 Big 8 titles, have faced each other five times in the championship game. With Saturday’s win, the Tigers are now 2-3 against the Panthers in Big 8 title games.
“I know it’s going to be a dogfight to the end,” Blanche Ely coach Melvin Randall said, “and we came out on top.”
The two teams traded leads throughout the game. Dillard took an early lead in the first quarter, but a pair of threes by Lamont Evans IV gave Ely a one-point lead at the end of the first quarter. Led by guard Deshawn Bartley, who led Dillard with 23 points, the Panthers came right back and took an eight-point lead into halftime.
Ely took the lead again in the third quarter and went into the fourth up four points, but Dillard fought until the final buzzer. The lead changed hands four times in the final quarter, but Scott put the Tigers ahead for the final time with a three-pointer with 1:37 left in the fourth quarter.
Scott knocked down four free throws in the game’s final two minutes — two of which came after a foul call that upset the Dillard bench — to help seal the game, and Francois, who finished the game with 15 points, knocked down two.
Ely has won 11 straight contests going into the postseason, which begins with the district tournament on Tuesday.

Nike recently announced Colin Kaepernick as the face of its “Just Do It” 30th-anniversary campaign, with its tagline “Believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything.”
Amidst the ongoing controversy surrounding the reveal, Kaepernick has shared a full-length clip of a Nike ad for the campaign.
The powerful video features both sports powerhouses like Serena Williams and LeBron James and lesser-known names like Shaquem Griffin, the one-handed football player who was recently drafted into the NFL.
Colin narrates through the ad, speaking powerful lines like: “If people say your dreams are crazy, if they laugh at what you think you can do. Good. Stay that way. Because what non-believers fail to understand is that calling a dream crazy is not an insult, it’s a compliment.”

Just For Kicks has been a tough one for me to update lately it's not for lack of desire... Tank Monkey Tuesday
was only supposed to be kind of a side project but lately it's been getting a more stable update schedule than the franchise strip, and I apologize for that. If I have any of my original readers left I really appreciate you sticking around. I highly encourage use of the RSS feature if you know how to use that kind of thing (I only barely get it myself) also I have a facebook page
which I update when each new strip goes up.
There's no good excuse but I hit a patch of writers block like I haven't seen in awhile. I knew I wanted them to get back to business as usual but I couldn't rightly tell exactly what that meant.
I mean... lately I've been dealing with pop culture geeky stuff which totally goes on behind the scenes at a lot of Martial Arts schools, but I've felt that the strip has been more commentary and less narrative of these characters' lives. Yes Rex is geekier than he lets on, we get it.
But I think today I finally hit on something, I think the characters are talking to me again and I think I can see how to move them forward. I hope I'm right and it keeps generating strips which will keep this story moving because I'm not planning to throw in the towel on these guys yet.

The TV panellist let loose on the show saying that the Royals were ‘hugely dysfunctional’ and thought it was wrong that Meghan and Harry are being vilified for stepping back from it.
Saira Khan, who was livid that she ‘couldn’t scrutinise the couple anymore for fear of being called racist’, used them flying private jets as an example of when they should be called out with it not being down to race.
But Denise backed them up, and came with examples of how Meghan Markle and Prince William’s wife Kate Middleton, were being treated completely differently in similar situations – with Meghan getting unfairly harsh critiques.
She then declared: ‘They’re not having affairs with everybody like the rest of the Royal family! That’s what gets me.
‘We all have dysfunctional families to a degree, but we’re talking about an incredibly dysfunctional family where these people are being demonised as if they’ve done something terribly, terribly wrong.’
Continuing her point, she said: ‘Whereas the family of old… would they rather it that she had an eating disorder? And that he’s having an affair and that been having affairs for 100 years, the poor girl?’
‘But how do you know people have had affairs?,’ Saira quizzed.
Denise then said as a matter of fact, and said: ‘We know Prince Charles had an affair.’
Saira then defended. ‘We weren’t a fly on the wall though.’
Sticking to her point, Denise affirmed: ‘I think we know Prince Charles had an affair with Camilla, Saira!’
The conversation is the latest in a long line of daytime TV programmes who have spoken about racism in relation to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s decision to step down from the Royal family.
Piers Morgan has come under fire for numerous comments and arguments on Good Morning Britain, and was called out for having a ‘personal vendetta against Meghan’.
The host also claimed that Harry and Meghan were ‘bullying’ the queen, causing Denise Welch to say yesterday that the Royal couple ‘needed protecting from him’.
Phillip Schofield also got educated on white privilege by Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu after admitting he hadn’t seen criticism of Meghan that he considered racist.

SPRING, Texas — A community is Spring is devastated over the unexpected loss of a popular coach.
Lazaro Martinez, or Coach Laz as he was known, was killed on Friday a motorcycle accident near Magnolia.
Those Coach Laz impacted the most came together to grieve and reflect on Sunday evening.
Erin Dolan, owner of Spring Creek Athletics, said Coach Laz had worked at the gym as a tumbling coach for three years.
Dolan said he was always smiling.
“He makes you laugh. He’s sarcastic,” Dolan said. “He jokes with you and literally everyone feels like their his favorite.”
So it’s a painful truth for so many who gathered inside the dark gym to remember and honor such a bright light.
“It was just very important to show our love to his family and he’s part of our family," Dolan said.
Besides a love for his family Coach Laz’s wife Erika Martinez said he had a love for the sport of gymnastics.
“He was very prideful and he always made sure that everybody was where they needed to be to progress in this type of sport that we do,” Martinez said.
Also, he was passionate about wrestling and fought in the ring as a luchador.
Martinez said his name was Brindis del Aire which means a "Toast to the Air" because he was in acrobatics so he liked to fly.
Those who gathered for a vigil said he’s now flying with angels in heaven.
Notes of love cover the tumbling mat where Coach Laz helped so many get better.
“I knew he was important, just you don’t realize how important someone is until they are gone," Martinez said.
They hope some of those lessons will be carried on forever.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help the family.

Milly decided to put off her wedding to Micah so that she could help him break his addiction to opioids. Micah was addicted to drugs, so she had to help him. On the other hand, Downey’s fight against cancer was not successful, and he died on December 28, 2019. He gave up and died because of his illness.
His abuse of drugs and alcohol led to his downfall, which led to his death. His mother and father used to put a lot of pressure on him to go to a rehab centre on his own. Micah got help at the facility, but when he left, he did things related to drug use.
James and Tori, two of his best friends, worked together to make and release a series of heartfelt messages. When Ms. Johnson heard that her longtime boyfriend had died, it made her sad, so she took some time to remember the good times they had together. Even so, she couldn’t stand the thought of being away from him for a while.

text: I'm curious how other people have handled the Santa Claus part of Christmas. My kids are older now so it's no longer an issue. We never really encouraged it, or even discouraged it, when the kids were little. We always treated it more like anyone could be Santa if they are kind and giving and generous. We never put presents under the tree and said they were "from" Santa. We explained that the many Santas they see at the malls were part of Christmas "fun". I don't know if this was right or wrong, but it worked for us.

A study published in Pediatrics found the number of prescriptions dispensed to children under 18 fell by 7% from 2002 to 2010. Prescriptions for teenagers and children for allergy medicines declined 61%, cough and cold remedies fell 42%, pain medicines and antibiotics fell 14%, and antidepressants dropped by 5%. Prescription drugs that increased significantly include attention deficit/hyperactivity medicine, 46%; asthma medicines, 14%; skin corticosteroids and seizure disorder medicines, 10%; oral corticosteroids, 22%; and contraceptives, 93%. The findings drew from retail pharmacy databases that include about half of the prescriptions dispensed in the U.S. “These data are hard to interpret,” said Aaron M. Milstone, assistant professor of pediatrics at Johns Hopkins. “I want to be optimistic and say that fewer people are prescribing antibiotics, but there’s a lot of work still to be done.”

NATO Summit: SNS Concerned About Future of Slovenia's Independence in NATO
Ljubljana, 21 November - The only Slovenian parliamentary party to oppose NATO membership has said that the decision to invite Slovenia to join was "expected". According to the National Party (SNS) head Zmago Jelincic, the U.S. and NATO as a whole require the widest possible support for campaigns that are for the most part not in line with international law or the constitutional charters of the United Nations and NATO.

text: WoWhead has their finger on everything World of Warcraft, even the things that a fan generally won't be able to see. They keep their sharp eyes on all versions of World of Warcraft to be able to immediately update fans of the game and site of any new changes. \n \nToday, they discovered that World of Warcraft is continuing to test Alpha builds for the upcoming expansion, Shadowlands. The new build is still encrypted, unfortunately, so they aren't able to do any datamining to discover what exactly is new in this build. Eventually, if the patch has its encryption removed (or broken) they'll be able to do more digging to discover what the new patch holds. \n \nSome may wonder, what's the use in knowing an encrypted alpha build shipped out? If we can't read it, there's nothing to update, right? \n \nWhat it really means is that Blizzard is still making forward progress on the upcoming title. It helps fans to know that Blizzard is moving forward, even if we don't know what exactly they're moving forward with. By knowing this alpha has hit the playable build for the developers, we know that they've hit another milestone in their production of the title. \n \n \n \nIn other words, it lets fans know that Blizzard isn't slacking. Of course, we don't know how far along this patch may be - maybe this was actually quite behind schedule? There's no way for us to know that either, unfortunately, so we'll just have to wait to find out. \n \nOne of the factors playing into this is the fact that Shadowlands still doesn't have a release date, even tentatively. Many people assume that we'll hear something about it soon at PAX East, but that's not quite set in stone yet either. \n \nBlizzard has only recently "finished" the story of the current expansion of the retail version of World of Warcraft, Battle for Azeroth, as they released the Visions of N'zoth endgame patch. This major patch added the final raid of the expansion, allowing players to do battle against (supposedly) the last Old God plaguing Azeroth. \n \nWe know from the expansion trailer that the upcoming Shadowlands expansion will have us departing from Azeroth and into another plane of existence, the Realm of the Dead, the Shadowlands themselves. The way that the story has continued on has been met with some hesitance (and annoyance) from the fanbase, but there seems to be a general excitement to see the next expansion regardless. Maybe once a patch hits the alpha without encryption, we'll know a bit more about the title.

Samrat Prithviraj Chauvan (1959)
(Certified: Jun 15, 1959)
"United we stand and divided we fall" History says that India has been always defeated due to our internal division. Had Kannaujs Jaihcand Rathaur and Kangadas Samant Hahulirai not divided themselves from Prithviraj India would never have been defeated by Sultan Ghori of Ghazni. . When Ghori invaded India for third time and was arrested Prithviraj pardened him, a gesture befitting high morals of Rajput chivalry. . During his victorious marhing over small divided Indian states, Karnataki, the court-dancer of Gujerat was arrested as a spy but magnanimous Prithviraj appointed her as the ourt-dancer of Delhi. Her beauty and charm captivated kaimas the Prime-minister of Prithviraj. One night when kaimas tried to rape her Prthviraj was ompelled to kill him to save the chestity of a woman. . Jaichand Rathaurs daughter Sanyukta was deeply in love with Prithviraj the ideal Rajput Prince. Karnataki who had come to Kannauj befriended Sanyukta and helped her. Ultimately Prithviraj, Kavichcand and the Samant came to the Sanyukta-swayambar. Prithviraj eloped Sanyukta, an act of great bravery and chivalry. . Angry and defeated Jaichand invited Ghori to invade India promising to help him to destroy Prithviraj. Samrat Hahulirai also secretely joined Ghori. His ambition was to sit on the throne of Delhi. Kavichand pursuaded him to remain with Prithviraj to defend India from foreign invasion. But he did not agree and arrested Kavichand. . Thus as events would have it Prithvirajs friend Kavichand coculd not be with him in the war, his Samant Hahulirai became a traitor, Jaichand also became a traitor, his prime minister was killed, his brave Senapati Cchamundrai took an oath that he would never hold a sword in his hands.

text: It had been argued and debated quite for a long time by local researchers whether motivational beliefs in effort and ability would have significant effects on students’ achievement goals and learning behaviors. In fact, a key factor related to cultural differences in the service and support of education would be the relative emphasis that culture would value/place on innate ability and effort. According to Weiner (1986), students who attributed success/failure to effort were more likely to incline to working harder than a student who attributed success/failure to innate ability. Popular and favorite Chinese saying: “Genius comes from hard work and knowledge depends on accumulation” (Tong, Zhao, & Yang, 1985) as well as the Chinese proverb: “The slow bird needs to start out early” both clearly explained that effort and innate ability would induce and lead to different achievement outcomes. Hau & Salili (1990) studied the causal attributions and achievement goals of primary school students in Hong Kong. Twelve specific causes including effort and ability were provided, and the students were required to rate the importance of each of them with respect to their performance in an actual examination. Results indicated that as compared to the junior students, the senior form students were learning oriented and they attributed their importance more to internal causes such as effort. In another study, Salili & Mak (1988) found that “effort” was perceived by Hong Kong students as the most important antecedents for academic achievement, while “being wealthy” and “career success” the lesser importance. Although these studies had investigated the attribution causes in academic achievements for Hong Kong students, they had not attempted to examine the structural relationships among motivational beliefs, achievement goals and learning strategies which were prevalent factors leading to desirable achievement outcomes. The present study attempted to establish a structural model consisting of the constructs of motivational beliefs (effort vs. ability), achievement goal orientations (learning goal vs. performance goal) and learning strategies (rehearsal, elaboration, organization, critical thinking). It was hypothesized that there were significant relationships among motivational beliefs in effort and ability, achievement goals and learning strategies at the p = .05 level. Belief in ability would have positive and significant effect on performance goal. Belief in effort would exert positive and significant effect on learning goal. Around 200 Hong Kong tertiary institute students were invited to participate in the present research. There were three adapted questionnaires on beliefs in effort and ability, achievement goals and learning strategies to be used and were administered to the participants. Findings showed that belief in effort had positive and significant effect on learning goal, whereas belief in ability had positive and significant effect on performance goal. Besides, learning goal orientation had positive and significant effects on rehearsal, elaboration, organization, critical thinking, whereas performance goal orientation had non-significant effects on these learning strategies, except the rehearsal strategy. More importantly, a structural model (utilizing path analysis by LISREL) comprising the complex interrelationships among beliefs in effort and ability, achievement goals and learning strategies could be established and substantiated by empirical data. The findings of the present research could contribute to help widen the knowledge into the characteristics of student teachers’ motivation and learning processes. It also deepened the insight into the inter-correlation and complexities of the variables on learning outcomes. Teacher educators would become more aware of these influential factors affecting the quality of learning outcomes and they would develop improved pedagogical strategies and implement necessary curricular programs to cater for the needs of the student teachers. Hence, the institutional resources and facilities could be adjusted/modified aiming at providing a better environment conducive to more desirable learning outcomes. Implications for further researches with consideration of socio-cultural framework/explanation would be discussed as well.

Peter Lord, co-founder of one of the most influential soul groups of the ’90’s, The Family Stand, is never remiss in acknowledging how past influences have helped shape the bands musical vision. “There’s always been a certain classic element to what we do,” he says. “If you go back and listen to music from about ’68 to about 1975 or so, that was the golden era for that mixture of funk and soul that seemed to have a real freedom to it. I loved that era of music. Then the bicentennial came and fucked everything up,” he laughs.
But the point he’s trying to make is not lost on the philosophy that goes into the making of The Family Stand’s inspiring mix of percolating rhythms and pinpoint social commentary. Now, finally, contemporary musical ears have caught up to them. Among the originators of the Afro-Bohemian sound sweeping pop and soul (Maxwell, Erykah Badu, D’Angelo), the group’s new album, Connected, delivers on all of their previous promise.
Whether it’s the vampy optimism of the album’s first track, “Keepin’ You Satisfied,” the psychedelic funk of “Don’t Ask Why,” or the socially relevant “What Must I Do Now,” the themes on Connected are both visceral and spiritual, aimed at moving the body and the mind. The group somehow manages to brew it all in a bubbling cauldron of classic soul, without ever sacrificing their originality. “We always want to do something that cant be pigeonholed,” says singer/songwriter/producer Peter Lord. “In the seventies, music wasn’t as categorized. You take an album like Stevie Wonder’s Innervisions, and you can see all the boundaries it broke. We model what we do on a vibe that reaches the listener in as many ways as possible.”
Peter, and Family Stand guitarist/saxophonist/vocalist Jeffrey Smith have enlisted singer Jacci McGhee to take the vocal reins on Connected. The former solo artist, (she recorded a self-titled debut album/hit single “It Hurts Me,” featuring Keith Sweat) has contributed her vocal talents on a duet with Keith Sweat (“Make It Last Forever”), and has worked with Salt N’ Pepa, among other groups, immediately gelled with the bands experimental approach to their assortment of sounds. “She has a real street quality,” says Jeffrey. Jacci says she also adds another flavor.: “I’ve got this Tina Turner thing that seems to fit in with the whole idea of breaking down walls, which is what the band has always tried to do.”
The Family Stand has been extending musical boundaries since 1988, with the release of their debut LP Chapters: A Novel By Evon Geffries And The Stand. Their 1990 breakthrough album, Chain, featuring the groundbreaking single “Ghetto Heaven,” elevated the group to cult status. A buzz was building around the group’s hybrid brand of rock/soul and funk. Their follow up album Moon In Scorpio cemented the group’s status as one of the more influential groups in R&B. Rolling Stone magazine called them: “An oasis in the desert of post-hip hop half-stepping.” The Family Stand has drawn comparisons to such historic artists as Sly And The Family Stone and Prince, but the band has never been content to rest on their critical laurels, taking equal pride in their diverse fan base.
“It seems like there is an audience out there now who are ready for us more than ever,” says Peter. “Hip hop has based itself on a lot of stuff from that golden era I was talking about,” he says. “The key is to not homogenize it, and not to distance yourself from it. The vibe runs through a lot of what’s popular today.”
Songs on the new LP such as “Connected” and the afore- mentioned “What Must I Do Now.” A song like ‘Keepin’ You Satisfied’starts it off with a more physical attitude,” he says. “But as you get through the album you see we’re dealing with heavier things. The album is put together in the way Stevie used to, connecting on all those fronts.”
Peter points to the album’s middle, and “What Must I Do Now,” which contains a part 1 and 2, as an example of this continuity. “The first part is an acknowledgement of the humanity of the black community,” he says. “But when you get to part 2, it’s about Tupac Shakur.”
On that song, The Family Stand explores the broader themes of what a contemporary young black man must go through when confronting his own fears, and the expectations of others who look to him for leadership. “Are you revolutionary, are you playing thug” the song asks. “Do you play the fool that walks the wire?” The Family Stand does not shrink from asking such questions of the musical community in general. The band sees its prime mission is to not only entertain, but to bring to light the full scope of their vision, artistry and humanity.

Chiefs hoping Patrick Mahomes passes first test vs. 49ers
Aug 12 2017 by Desiree Burns
The bomb was a crowd pleaser, sure, but his best play came in the third quarter, when, with the Chiefs facing a second-and-1 at the 49ers' 1-yard line, Mahomes received the snap from under center, executed a play-action fake and started drifting to his right.
But while it may be a while before we see Mahomes on the field in a game that matters, he's turning heads on the practice field and will be perhaps the most important player to watch when the Chiefs open the preseason on Friday night against the 49ers. He completed a 32-yard deep pass to his No. 1 target, Tyreek Hill, on the first play of the game.
The 49ers also have a coach with a Kansas connection.
That guy could start: Wide receiver Aldrick Robinson has been a consistent playmaker during training camp and has had a strong rapport with Barkley. Ironically, Mahomes' debut will be somewhat similar to when he played his first game at Texas Tech.
Kelly's Sex Cult Scandal Might Spark A Criminal Investigation!
Kelly can increase his notoriety, gloss over and normalize his behavior, and continue to profit and fund his crimes against women. Live Nation contracts with the county to plan and promote events at the county-owned amphitheater just outside Atlanta.
The 49ers offense responded to the Chiefs' touchdown by going backward - minus-seven yards - on their first offensive drive and gaining five yards on their second. They finished with 17 penalties for 131 yards.
Mahomes is the first quarterback the Chiefs have selected in the first round since Todd Blackledge in 1983.
With Cairo Santos still dealing with a groin injury, Kansas City is preparing for their season opener against the San Francisco 49ers by bringing a new kicker to the team. If you don't want them, the price is $10/month. "We've got to clean that stuff up before we score".
Lining up at left defensive end, Thomas had another pressure later in the quarter while defensive end Aaron Lynch, a former starter playing against the Chiefs' second-string defense, had three pressures and batted down a pass at the line of scrimmage. That was evident again Friday as Robinson had a 63-yard catch-and-run and had a touchdown wiped out by a penalty. Beathard. Fourth quarterback Nick Mullens did not get in the game.

A lot has been written about the hidden Nazi networks in Europe and South America. What many investigators have missed, however, is the true extent of this network in the United States. While we have all heard of former concentration camp guards being arrested in America and deported to stand trial abroad, we have not learned of the underground support systems that existed in the United States before the war, and how many individuals offered covert support to war criminals after it.
“Between 1933 and 1941, at least 120 anti-semitic groups were founded in the United States, and that figure excludes most of the ethnic fascist movements.” — Philip Jenkins, Hoods and Shirts, 1997
The story of Jörg Haider is not an isolated one. Austria has been struggling with Nazi and pro-Nazi groups since long before Anschluss made the land of Mozart and kaffee klatsches a part of the Third Reich. Hitler, after all, had been born and raised in Austria. Many of the Reich’s most notorious and violent Nazis were Austrians, such as Ernst Kaltenbrunner. Haider’s parents had been Nazis in Austria when it was still an illegal political party, risking their liberty and reputations in support of Hitler’s ideology. Revelations in the 1980s concerning Kurt Waldheim’s Nazi past made headlines all over the world, calling into question his role both as the head of the Austrian government as well as his tenure at the United Nations.


It's the ultimate compliment for any goalkeeper to be named in the same breath as Gordon Banks.
The England legend is widely credited with the greatest save of all time for an impossibly agile stop from Pele at the 1970 World Cup.
But Kilwinning Rangers keeper Adam Strain has given the Three Lions hero a run for his money with a gravity defying save of his own.
Strain, 36, drew comparisons with Banks after somehow pawing a downward header from point blank range onto his crossbar during his side's 3-2 win against Pollok last weekend.
Footage courtesy of Pollok FC
The cat-like reflex stop was hailed "extraordinary" by his delighted gaffer Chris Strain (no relation) while fans lapped it up on social media.
He said: "Adam has produced some superb saves for us this season but this was something else. It was an absolutely extraordinary stop.
"He had another wonder save in the second half, flying to his left to tip a shot over the bar. Both were world class."
It's not the first time a Kilwinning player has been compared to an England superstar.
Former defender Robert Boyd took the internet by storm last year when he netted a David Beckham-esque goal from the half-way line. Watch the clip here .

Here's the two saves back-to-back - vote for your favourite on our poll.

While online gambling is a rapidly growing industry, the market remains somewhat fragmented. In-person casinos can ban rogue operators from offering their products and services to gamblers. On the other hand, online casinos have no such safeguards and are left to try to lure returning customers with advertising and special offers. Fortunately, there are some ways to identify these casinos. Listed below are a few tips to help you find the best online casinos.
Online gambling may seem like less of a problem for people with gambling problems. In fact, it may be easier for a gambler to hide behind the computer screen. In addition to being less noticeable to other people, online gambling is more difficult to identify, making it harder to detect an addiction. The problem often goes unnoticed by friends and family, who may not even notice the gambling. Ultimately, the problem is not the gambling site but the gambler himself.
The biggest obstacle in broader regulation of online gambling is the morality of the activity. Some view gambling as an entertainment or hobby while others view it as a serious threat to their well-being. Most gambling sites promote fair gaming practices, allow players to set loss limits, and allow players to self-exclude. In addition, legislation ensures that gambling platforms are governed by reputable bodies, which are responsible for addressing any misconduct. The question then remains – should online gambling be regulated?


The selection of emergency eye wash and shower equipment is often a complicated process. In addition to addressing design and engineering issues, specifiers must be aware of regulatory requirements and compliance standards. A common reference point when specifying emergency equipment is ANSI Z358.1, “Emergency Eye Wash and Shower Equipment.” This standard is a widely accepted guideline for the proper selection, installation and maintenance of emergency equipment.
To assist specifiers in understanding the provisions of this standard, Guardian Equipment has prepared this ANSI Compliance Checklist. In this Checklist, we have summarized and graphically presented the provisions of the standard. This Checklist can serve as a starting point for designing emergency eye wash and shower systems.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 was enacted to assure that workers are provided with “safe and healthful working conditions.” Under this law, the Occupational Safety and Heath Administration (OSHA) was created and authorized to adopt safety standards and regulations to fulfill the mandate of improving worker safety.
OSHA has adopted several regulations that refer to the use of emergency eye wash and shower equipment. The primary regulation is contained in 29 CFR 1910.151, which requires that...
“...where the eyes or body of any person may be exposed to injurious corrosive materials, suitable facilities for quick drenching or flushing of the eyes and body shall be provided within the work area for immediate emergency use.”
The OSHA regulation regarding emergency equipment is quite vague, in that it does not define what constitutes “suitable facilities” for drenching the eyes or body. In order to provide additional guidance to employers, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has promulgated a voluntary standard covering emergency eye wash and shower equipment. This standard—ANSI Z358.1—is intended to serve as a guideline for the proper design, performance, installation, use and maintenance of emergency equipment.
ANSI Z358.1-2004 contains provisions regarding the design, performance, installation, use and maintenance of various types of emergency equipment (showers, eye washes, drench hoses, etc.). In addition to these provisions, there are some general considerations that apply to all emergency equipment. These considerations may not necessarily be part of the standard, but we believe that they should be addressed when considering emergency equipment. These include the following:
First Aid Devices
Emergency eye wash and shower units are designed to deliver water to rinse contaminants from a user’s eyes, face or body. As such, they are a form of first aid equipment to be used in the event of an accident. However, they are not a substitute for primary protective devices (including eye and face protection and protective clothing) or for safe procedures for handling hazardous materials.
Simply installing emergency equipment is not a sufficient means of assuring worker safety. Employees must be trained in the location of emergency equipment and in its proper use. Emergency equipment must be regularly maintained (including weekly activation of the equipment) to assure that it is in working order and inspected at least annually for compliance with the standard. Most importantly, employers should develop a response plan to be used in the event that an accident does occur. The focus of the response plan should be to provide assistance to the injured worker as quickly as possible. We offer a variety of alarm systems which may be installed in conjunction with our emergency equipment. They serve to alert personnel and summon assistance if an eye wash or shower is activated. WE RECOMMEND INSTALLING AN ALARM UNIT WITH ANY EMERGENCY EYE WASH OR SHOWER UNIT.
Location of Emergency Equipment
In general, the ANSI standard provides that emergency equipment be installed within 10 seconds walking time from the location of a hazard. The equipment must be installed on the same level as the hazard (i.e. accessing the equipment should not require going up or down stairs or ramps). The path of travel from the hazard to the equipment should be free of obstructions and as straight as possible.
However, there are certain circumstances where these guidelines may not be adequate. For example, where workers are handling particularly strong acids, caustics or other materials where the consequences of a spill would be very serious, emergency equipment should be installed immediately adjacent to the hazard.
The 2004 version of the standard states that the water temperature delivered by emergency equipment should be “tepid” (i.e. moderately warm or lukewarm). However, where it is possible that a chemical reaction might be accelerated by warm water, a medical professional should be consulted to determine what the optimum water temperature would be.
Disposal of Water
The standard does not include any provisions regarding the disposal of waste water. However, designers must give consideration to where waste water will go. In particular, care must be taken that waste water not create a hazard (i.e. by creating a pool in which someone might slip) or freeze.
Generally, Guardian eye wash, eye/face wash and safety station units are designed with waste connections for connection to drain piping. We recommend that emergency eye wash and shower units be connected to drain piping. For emergency showers AND FOR OTHER UNITS WITHOUT WASTE CONNECTIONS, floor drains should be provided. After an emergency eye wash or shower has been used, the waste water may contain hazardous materials that cannot or should not be introduced into a sanitary sewer. It may be necessary to connect the drain piping from the emergency equipment or floor drain to the building’s acid waste disposal system or to a neutralizing tank.

Even in more normal moments he seemed to be one who singly pursued a solitary train of thought, and he was still talking, like a man talking to himself, about the rationality of topsy-turvydom.Today, the Second Sunday of Lent, the Church invites us to consider the Transfiguration of the Lord.
"We were talking about St. Peter," he said; "you remember that he was crucified upside down. I've often fancied his humility was rewarded by seeing in death the beautiful vision of his boyhood. He also saw the landscape as it really is: with the stars like flowers, and the clouds like hills, and all men hanging on the mercy of God."G.K. Chesterton, The Poet and the Lunatics
I've always been partial to Mark's account of this event, because of an oft-overlooked phrase at the end of the pericope: "So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what rising from the dead meant" (Mark 9:10 - NAB).
Now, Mark's Gospel is arguably the one most situated within the "eschatalogical dimension," that is, the one most concerned with the immanence of the Lord's return (although the focus is certainly present to the other Evangelists' accounts, especially Luke's).
The reason that this phrase in Mark particularly strikes me is that, in the immediate context, Christ has just finished emphatically his first prediction of His passion (see Mark 8:31ff). Also, more remotely, Jesus has already been depicted miraculously restoring the daughter of a synagogue official to life (Mark 5:35-42). That the man whom Peter had affirmed to be Christ, the Son of God, was given power even over life and death could not have escaped his followers' attention. So, why the confusion about "what it means to rise from the dead?"
The key to the answer is the meaning of the Transfiguration itself. Six days before the Transfiguration, Christ had been teaching his disciples about the eschaton, and the "coming of the kingdom of God in power":
He summoned the crowd with his disciples and said to them, "Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it. What profit is there for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life? What could one give in exchange for his life? Whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this faithless and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of when he comes in his Father's glory with the holy angels" (Mark 8:34-38).Then, on the mountain-top with Peter, James, and John, he provides a glimpse of the glory to be revealed in that day. The root of the question: "What does it mean to rise from the dead" seems to rest in this vision of glory, accompanied by Christ's paradoxical teaching about laying down one's life in order to gain it. This is not mere resuscitation that Christ intends to accomplish for Himself and for all who follow Him: it is not simply the restoration to former life. It is an inauguration of a new being, the recreation of nature in a glorified state, turning inside-out and upside-down all that was once twisted and distorted by sin and death.
In the early Church, this vision became manifest in the witness of the martyrs. Stephen, dying, realizes the eschatological promise of Christ: "He, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God; and he said, 'Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God'"(Acts 7:55-56). Whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it. Rising from the dead means rising to new life; and it means, first, dying to the world and sin. Resurrection "means" the death of martyrdom, in the sense that an effect "means" or intentionally manifests its cause. Indeed, the vision of Christ glorified on Tabor might even have included a glimpse of His future wounds shining in splendor as they do in Heaven now for eternity.
For the evangelist Mark, the Gospel was meant to shine light and meaning on the sufferings of his present-day community. The persecution by Rome challenged the believers of Christ to place their hopes in the eschatological dimension: to see future glory present in immediate sufferings, to find future gain in present loss. And the Gospel bears this message as meaningfully for us today.
It is really fortuitous that the seasons of Paschal-tide coincide each year with tax season. As we fill out our earnings statements and take stock of our worth, we would do well to ask what we really have "gained" by our year's efforts. Have we gained even the whole world, at the cost of our soul? Have we stored up treasure on earth like the fool in the Gospel, whose life would soon be demanded and find him sorely lacking in the accounting book of Heaven? Or have we acted instead like that other Fool in the Gospel, the Fool for Christ's sakes who bumbled his way along as the head of the Apostolic Church and found himself at his life's end hanging upside-down in a comical testimony to the dramatic reversal brought about by Christ?
The Transfiguration teaches us that Resurrection means death, that hope of future glory can only be substantiated through acceptance of present shame. "What it means to rise from the dead" is to have first died the death worthy of a follower of Christ. It is not only our final end that matters in this regard: it encompasses all the little daily deaths, the denials of self and turnings away from sin.
Of course, the focus of this website is economics and the social order, but this reflection is easily brought to bear in that context as well. As we go about our business these next five weeks of Lent and beyond, we may find that the building up of the kingdom of God here on earth is a drudgery and a plodding affair. Rome was not built in a day. But the kingdom of God in glory shall come like a bolt of lightning out of the clear blue sky, and we must always be ready to stand judgment on that day. Every economizing decision, every political motive, must be informed for Christians by this eschatological focus. The rationality of topsy-turvydom demands reckoning this very day - in our nightly examen, in our filing of our income tax return. May all our testaments in this world, from the lives of our children to the ledgers of our accounts, bear witness to the things which truly matter, to what it means to rise from the dead.

As a pet owner, it can be heartbreaking to watch your furry friend suffer from allergies. Traditional medication may not always work, and can have unpleasant side effects. If you’re looking for a more holistic approach to managing your pet’s allergies, there are several options available to you, including herbal remedies and acupuncture.
Herbal remedies have been used for centuries to treat a variety of ailments in both humans and animals. When it comes to pet allergies, there are several herbs that can be used to reduce symptoms and improve your pet’s overall health.
One popular herb is nettle. Nettle is a natural antihistamine and can help reduce inflammation caused by allergies. It’s available in capsule or tincture form. Another herb to consider is licorice root. Licorice root has anti-inflammatory properties and can help relieve itching and irritation caused by allergies. It can be added to your pet’s food or given as a supplement.
Acupuncture is another holistic approach to managing pet allergies. It involves inserting fine needles into specific points on your pet’s body to help improve energy flow and reduce inflammation. Acupuncture can be used to treat a variety of allergies, including food and environmental allergies.
In addition to acupuncture, there are other forms of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that can be used to manage pet allergies. One such treatment is herbal medicine. Similar to herbal remedies, herbal medicine involves using specific herbs to treat a variety of ailments, including allergies. TCM practitioners can also recommend dietary changes to help improve your pet’s overall health and reduce allergy symptoms.
Other Holistic Approaches
In addition to herbal remedies and acupuncture, there are other holistic approaches to managing pet allergies that you can try. These include massage therapy, aromatherapy, and homeopathy. It’s important to remember that while these approaches can be effective, they should be used in conjunction with traditional medication and other treatments recommended by your veterinarian.
While these pet allergy holistic treatments can be effective, it’s important to consult with your veterinarian before trying any new treatments. They can help you determine the best course of action for your pet and ensure that any treatments you use are safe and effective.
