INFRASTRUCTURE IS KEY TO EQUITABLE DEVELOPMENT PAGE-8 (OPINION) The Global New Light of Myanmar NEXT GENERATION PLATFORM 13 JANUARY 2019 THE GLOBAL NEW LIGHT OF MYANMAR NATIONAL Meeting to form Workers Coordinating Committee (WCC) held in Hlinethaya Tsp By Thu Naung Kyaw (Hledan) Dip. in English (YUFL) WELL-KNOWN modern teashop in Hledan makes a bowl of oil noodles in the way that the steaming hot noodles are sieved into a plastic water bowl with handle, commonly used in bath- A rooms, in which the concoction is done, afterwards being put PAGE-6 Pull-out supplementinto a porcelain plate and, finally, served. Moreover, Hledan has another popular teashop, only two branches of which are running there in the town. There, when a glass of cold drink is ordered, they use a generous amount of unevenly hewn ice cubes, rather than using purified ice cubes. Also, the bottles of soybean with their rusty metal caps staining their mouths are not worth ordering. Next, a roadside Monhingha shop, which, however, was known to be in the list of pioneers of the town, asked us to hold our horses as the broth had ran out. A moment later, a trishaw came with many plastic bags, each holding Monhingha broth – boiling hot – all of which was eventually poured down into the large bowl. In the Hledan market, a wholesaling shop that sells fried vermicelli and fried noodles adds the entire packet of Ajinomoto, the seasoning powder, into a giant frying pan. Those noodles and vermicelli are sold to the other shops retailing various salads, pork on stick, and so on. Each plate of noodle salad, pork salad, and vermicelli salad is given an additional spoonful of seasoning powder when ordered. I am not going to talk about those fritter shops that are stealthily cutting the collected water bottles at the back! I was wondering how many of such kind of shops there are in Sanchaung, Kyauk-myaung, South Okkala, and so forth that are equally cancer-causing like those of Hledan.

  • Hans Wurm’S Ringbuch C

    Hans Wurm’S Ringbuch C

    Hans Wurm’s Ringbuch c. 1507 - A Translation and Commentary By Keith P. Myers Exclusively for the ARMA, March 2002 The manuscript you see here is thought to have originated in approximately 1500 in the workshop of the Landshut woodcutter and printer Hans Wurm. “Landshut” could be translated as “grounds keeper”, which may go along with the description of Wurm as a “woodcutter” as well as a printer. Dr. Sydney Anglo, senior ARMA advisor and leading scholar of historical fencing, describes Wurm’s work as an “experimental and rudimentary block book”, and notes that it may have been one of the earliest printed treatises produced. The author remains anonymous, and only one copy is known to survive. It is thought to consist of the actual colored test prints made from the original wood blocks. It is unclear whether the Ringbuch was ever actually widely published. It was, however, plagiarized on at least two occasions. These later reproductions referred to the manuscript as “Das Landshuter Ringerbuch.” Although they demonstrate some dialect differences, these copies almost directly correlate with Wurm’s Ringbuch. Both likely arose independently of each other, and where based directly upon Wurm’s earlier work. The first copy is dated to approximately 1507. It does not designate the exact year, the author, the printer, or the locale. While it places the techniques in the same order as Wurm, the grapplers in the illustrations are dressed in a completely different fashion than in Wurm’s Ringbuch. The second copy is dated to approximately 1510. It originated from the Augsberg printer Hannsen Sittich.

    The Origin & Historical Development of Silambam Fencing © 1988 by Dr. David Manuel Raj Contact: [email protected]; cell phone # 9884061557 or 9840020766 This research paper written in 1988 by Dr. David Manuel Raj, pictured below, was selected by the xxiv Seoul Olympic Scientific Congress (South Korea) and scheduled to be read on September 10, 1988 at one of the seminar halls at the Danhook University Campus in Seoul, South Korea. The Origin & Historical Development of Silambam Fencing: An Ancient Self- Defense Sport of India INTRODUCTION Etymologically Silambam is an onomatopoeic term for the swishing sound produced when an elastic cane bamboo, uniform in cross section and of a length which is a little less than that of the performer, is brandished with power and hit against another in the process of dueling (1). The purpose of this study was to trace the origin and the historical development of Silambam Fencing, a Dravidian Martial Sport of Tamil civilization, India from pre- historic time to the 20th Century A. D. METHOD This study was undertaken mainly by Library Research Method. HISTORY OF SILAMBAM FENCING BEFORE CHRIST According to Rapson, E. J. (2) several millennia before the Christian Era, the greater part of India was inhabited by Dravidians. Rajagopalan, K. (3) writes: Stick fight (Silambam Fencing) of Dravidians using cane bamboos is predominantly a prehistoric method of defense and attack. Paleolithic and Neolithic man found it quite handy in South India as a weapon for defense and attack against animal and human foes. Iyengar, S. (4) records: Single stick (wand of male bamboo) fencing is prevalent still in South India right from the Stone Age.

In preparing young wrestlers (16-17 years of age) the design often follows a relatively well-developed system of training for adult masters of sport. In general, the youthful body is characterized by a high intensity cardio-respiratory and blood systems during physical stress. So far, no data on the impact of intense competitive activity on the dynamics of individual aspects of preparedness of young wrestlers is available. Our objective was to study the impact of competitive activity on the functional training state in young wrestlers. Keywords: Competitions, Rules, Female Wrestling, Factor Analysis, Technique Wrestlers, training, weight management. INTRODUCTION Wrestling is unique among athletics. It is considered to be one of the most physically demanding sports among high school and college athletics. Wrestling was one of the most favored events in the Olympic Games in Ancient Greece. The first organized national wrestling tournament took place in New York City in 1888. From the Athens Games in 1896, until today, the wrestling events are also an important part of the modern Olympic Games. The International Federation of Associated Wrestling Styles (FILA) originated in 1912 in Antwerp, Belgium. The 1st NCAA Wrestling Championships were also held in 1912, in Ames, Iowa. USA Wrestling, located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, became the national governing body of amateur wrestling in 1983.

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2011) Martial arts are extensive systems of codified practices and traditions of combat, practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental and spiritual development. The term martial art has become heavily associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, but was originally used in regard to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. An English fencing manual of 1639 used the term in reference specifically to the "Science and Art" of swordplay. The term is ultimately derived from Latin, martial arts being the "Arts of Mars," the Roman god of war.[1] Some martial arts are considered 'traditional' and tied to an ethnic, cultural or religious background, while others are modern systems developed either by a founder or an association.

Astafiev, 5Siberian Law Institute of the Ministry of Internal Affair of Russia, Krasnoyarsk, RUSSIA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The article is devoted to the search for effective methods of training effects on athletes specializing in combat sambo. It was revealed that the main criterion determining the success of combat sambo wrestlers in the competitive activity will be the level of their special training. Moreover, this training includes special endurance of athletes, active dynamics of competitive contests and the speed of recovery of fighters after intense training and competitive loads. Besides, to increase the level of special endurance combat sambo wrestlers significantly it was suggested to include in the training process of combat athletes the method of intensive functional training - crossfit. In a year of studies the tests on the evaluation of the level of recovery of combat athletes after a specific load showed that the athletes using the training method - crossfit in their training sessions demonstrated significantly (P <0.05) the best recovery time after the load than the wrestlers who did not use this technique.

  • Wrestling Injuries

    Wrestling Injuries

    SPORTS TIP WRESTLING INJURIES restling, one of the world’s oldest sports, is offered at various levels of competition, including the Olympics, the American Athletic Union, the U.S. W Wrestling Federation, and high school and college-sponsored tournaments. It’s a sport for all sizes of people, and both male and female participants compete, even at the Olympic level. Competition rules require that athletes be paired against each other according to their weight class. Some competitions require that contestants be matched by age, experience, and/or gender. This not only allows more people to participate, but also decreases the risk for injury. Nevertheless, injuries do occur, particularly in the knee, shoulder, skin, and head. What are the most common wrestling injuries? The injuries include concussions, scrapes, bruises, tongue cuts, and cauliflower ear. However, knee and shoulder injuries occur with more severity than all other injuries and are responsible for the most lost time, surgeries, and treatments. Head and Face Cauliflower ears are caused by severe bruising of the ear structure. The resulting injury may need to be drained and the ear wrapped in a casting material to retain ear shape once the swelling has subsided. Although difficult to avoid, wearing headgear is the best defense against this potentially disfiguring injury. Wearing headgear with a frontal pad can also minimize the impact of the forehead and help prevent concussions. In addition to preventing severe tongue and tooth injury, a mouthguard can help prevent concussion, as well. Prepatella Bursitis Prepatella bursitis is the inflammation of the sac (bursa) located in front of the kneecap (patella).

    Buddhism and Written Law: Dhammasattha Manuscripts and Texts in Premodern Burma

    BUDDHISM AND WRITTEN LAW: DHAMMASATTHA MANUSCRIPTS AND TEXTS IN PREMODERN BURMA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Dietrich Christian Lammerts May 2010 2010 Dietrich Christian Lammerts BUDDHISM AND WRITTEN LAW: DHAMMASATTHA MANUSCRIPTS AND TEXTS IN PREMODERN BURMA Dietrich Christian Lammerts, Ph.D. Cornell University 2010 This dissertation examines the regional and local histories of dhammasattha, the preeminent Pali, bilingual, and vernacular genre of Buddhist legal literature transmitted in premodern Burma and Southeast Asia. It provides the first critical analysis of the dating, content, form, and function of surviving dhammasattha texts based on a careful study of hitherto unexamined Burmese and Pali manuscripts. It underscores the importance for Buddhist and Southeast Asian Studies of paying careful attention to complex manuscript traditions, multilingual post- and para- canonical literatures, commentarial strategies, and the regional South-Southeast Asian literary, historical, and religious context of the development of local legal and textual practices. Part One traces the genesis of dhammasattha during the first and early second millennia C.E. through inscriptions and literary texts from India, Cambodia, Campå, Java, Lakå, and Burma and investigates its historical and legal-theoretical relationships with the Sanskrit Bråhmaˆical dharmaßåstra tradition and Pali Buddhist literature. It argues that during this period aspects of this genre of written law, akin to other disciplines such as alchemy or medicine, functioned in both Buddhist and Bråhmaˆical contexts, and that this ecumenical legal culture persisted in certain areas such as Burma and Java well into the early modern period.
