Foreword This book about physical activity has been written especially for high school students. The first edition, published over a decade ago, met with instant success because it presented basic informationabout a subject that was highly important to high school boys and girls, in a way that was designed to make good reading for them. When itappeared, Physical Education for High School Students was a "first," a pioneering effort in giving background information, rules, strategy, officiating tech- niques, and safety requirements in what for too long was considered merely an "exercise" course. Today, when it is generally accepted that physical activity both involves and develops intellectual ability and that fitness and mental capacity cannot l'e separated in the individual, this textbook is still the outstanding effort to provide in one volume the necessary reading material to accompany a sound program ofphysical education. The first edition and now this completely revised and up-to-date second edition resulted from the efforts of a national professional organi- zation. Both editions were envisioned and carried to completion through the cooperative endeavors of almost 200 leaders in education. Authors and committee members made their contributions without compensa- tion, as a professional service, thus making it possible to produce this book at a nominal cost to the student. It is the hope of all members of the American Association for Health, Physical Education, and Recrea- tion that the book will help bring high school students closer to a knowl- edge of the joys of participation in physical activityduring their school days and as productive adult members of our society.

Does it mean learning sport skills, developing good health habits, providing situations for self-expres- sion and exploration? In essence, it means all of this and more. Physical education offers valuable experiences for you as an individual and for society as a whole. It opens a whole new world of the future where recreation will increase 300 percent by the year 2000. Physical education is basically an activity-oriented program. From the time you were born, physical activity has been a most important part of your development. At your present point in development,however, you hose been exposed to many formal and informal typesof physical activity in school. Let's review some of them. During your elementary years, most of your physical education program was comprised of basic skills, movement exploration,and self- testing activities, along with some team-oriented sports. This was a good beginning, and hopefully continued through your junior high school years. The development of basic movement and sport skillsis intricate and exacting, and it takes much practice to attain proficiency. The skills which you pursue now in your physical education class should not be completely new to you. You already have learned the basic movements which have prepared you for today's physical education programs, designed to present skills and gamesituations to help meet your individual physical needs and interests. The sportsskills which you learn now will be a great asset to you during future leisuretime. Just how well you learn to use these skills

  • Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907)
    Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 BuYun Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen During the Tang dynasty, an increased capacity for change created a new value system predicated on the accumulation of wealth and the obsolescence of things that is best understood as fashion. Increased wealth among Tang elites was paralleled by a greater investment in clothes, which imbued clothes with new meaning. Intellectuals, who viewed heightened commercial activity and social mobility as symptomatic of an unstable society, found such profound changes in the vestimentary landscape unsettling. For them, a range of troubling developments, including crisis in the central government, deep suspicion of the newly empowered military and professional class, and anxiety about waste and obsolescence were all subsumed under the trope of fashionable dressing. The clamor of these intellectuals about the widespread desire to be “current” reveals the significant space fashion inhabited in the empire – a space that was repeatedly gendered female. This dissertation considers fashion as a system of social practices that is governed by material relations – a system that is also embroiled in the politics of the gendered self and the body. I demonstrate that this notion of fashion is the best way to understand the process through which competition for status and self-identification among elites gradually broke away from the imperial court and its system of official ranks.

    THE CORSET THE CRINOLINE. # A BOOK oh MODES AND COSTUMES FROM REMOTE PERIODS TO THE PRESENT TIME. By W. B. L. WITH 54 FULL-PAGE AND OTHER ENGRAVINGS. " wha will shoe my fair foot, Aud wha will glove my han' ? And wha will lace my middle jimp Wi' a new-made London ban' ?" Fair Annie of L&hroyan. LONDON: W A R D, LOCK, AND TYLER. WARWICK HOUSE, PATERNOSTER ROW. LOS DOS PRINTKD BY JAS. WAOE, TAVISTOCK STREET, COVBSI GARDEN 10 PREFACE. The subject which we have here treated is a sort of figurative battle-field, where fierce contests have for ages been from time to time waged; and, notwithstanding the determined assaults of the attacking hosts, the contention and its cause remain pretty much as they were at the commencement of the war. We in the matter remain strictly neutral, merely performing the part of the public's " own correspondent," making it our duty to gather together such extracts from despatches, both ancient and modern, as may prove interesting or important, to take note of the vicissitudes of war, mark its various phases, and, in fine, to do our best to lay clearly before our readers the historical facts—experiences and arguments—relating to the much-discussed " Corset question" As most of our readers are aware, the leading journals especially intended for the perusal of ladies have been for many years the media for the exchange of a vast number of letters and papers touching the use of the Corset. The questions relating to the history of this apparently indispensable article of ladies' attire, its construction, application, and influence on the figure have become so numerous of late that we have thought, by embodying all that we can glean and garner relating to Corsets, their wearers, and the various costumes worn by ladies at different periods, arranging the subject-matter in its due order as to dates, and at the same time availing ourselves of careful illustration when needed, that an interesting volume would result.

For the past few years, the demand for traditional clothing which is named as Hanfu has increased rapidly with the prosperity of traditional clothing. This phenomenon also promotes the development of related industries, such as Hanfu wedding. Because of the love of traditional culture, many young people choose Hanfu wedding. Hanfu wedding is held according to the wedding ceremony that is recorded in historical books, like the Zhou system or Tang system.

It is the complete embodiment from the pledge in love to the marriage, which contains propose a marriage, ask name, divine, send betrothal presents, discuss the wedding date and greet bride personally.

Keywords: Jewelry design; Six etiquettes; Hanfu wedding; Wild goose; Deer 1 Introduction 1.1 Background and Main Contents For the past few years, traditional culture is so inviting that has caused national elements hot, such as the well-known cultural creation of the Palace Museum.

However, as knowledge surrounding its performance is limited, this study described the frequency, types and outcomes of set-shots in the AFL, and investigated the impact of task, personal, and environmental constraints on goal-kicking performance. We analyzed video footage of set- shots from all 198 AFL 2012 matches, collecting data for kick distance, kick angle, player position, player experience (i.e., general and specific), kick outcome, and weather status. We found an average of 23.0 (SD = 4.5) set-shots/match, with a mean accuracy of 55.0% (SD = 0.7%). Kicking accuracy decreased with incremental increases in kick distance, with accuracy ranging from 97% (0-15m) to 36% (≥50m).
