First of all, I owe a lot of gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Rolf Strootman, whose lectures not only inspired the subject for this thesis, but whose door was always open in case I needed advice or felt the need to discuss complex topics. With his incredible amount of knowledge on the Hellenistic Period provided me with valuable insights, yet always encouraged me to follow my own view on things. Over the course of this study, there were several people along the way who helped immensely by providing information, even if it was not yet published. Firstly, Prof. Dr. Miguel John Versluys, who was kind enough to send his forthcoming book on Nemrud Dagh, an important contribution to the information on Antiochos I of Kommagene. Secondly, Prof. Dr. Panagiotis Iossif who even managed to send several articles in the nick of time to help my thesis. Lastly, the National Numismatic Collection department of the Nederlandse Bank, to whom I own gratitude for sending several scans of Hellenistic coins. -

MONGOL Since 1991 the MESSENGER 500 ¥ No. 07-08 (1076-1077) MONGOLIA’S FIRST ENGLISH WEEKLY PUBLISHED BY MONTSAME NEWS AGENCY Friday, February 17, 2012 Mongolia Economic Happy Tsagaan Sar! Forum planned for early March The Mongolian Economic Forum 2012 will run on March 5-6. At a February 10 press conference, organizers of the forum reported about the preparations and measures for the forum. As of information given by MP S. Oyun; Deputy Finance Minister Ch.Gankhuyag; Ch.Khashchuluun, head of the National Development and Innovation Committee; and P.Tsagaan, senior advisor to the President, the forum that is to be organized for the third time, will run this year under the motto ‘Together for Development’. The forum will have sub-meetings under themes on economic development, social policy and competitiveness, and bring together over 1000 foreign and domestic participants. During the forum, it is planned to publicly introduce Mongolia’s development forum until 2021 issued by Open Society. MP S. Oyun said, “In reality, why isn’t poverty decreasing while the economy has grown over the past five or six years. We believe that issues on how to decrease poverty and what should be done for the fruits of economic growth to improve livelihoods will develop into hot discussions during the forum. For instance, the statistical figures on poverty percentages are very confusing. The National Statistical Committee evaluates the poverty rate at 39 percent while the World Bank says it is lower using a different methodology to evaluate poverty. Therefore, -

Record Dreams Catalog
RECORD DREAMS 50 Hallucinations and Visions of Rare and Strange Vinyl Vinyl, to: vb. A neologism that describes the process of immersing yourself in an antique playback format, often to the point of obsession - i.e. I’m going to vinyl at Utrecht, I may be gone a long time. Or: I vinyled so hard that my bank balance has gone up the wazoo. The end result of vinyling is a record collection, which is defned as a bad idea (hoarding, duplicating, upgrading) often turned into a good idea (a saleable archive). If you’re reading this, you’ve gone down the rabbit hole like the rest of us. What is record collecting? Is it a doomed yet psychologically powerful wish to recapture that frst thrill of adolescent recognition or is it a quite understandable impulse to preserve and enjoy totemic artefacts from the frst - perhaps the only - great age of a truly mass art form, a mass youth culture? Fingering a particularly juicy 45 by the Stooges, Sweet or Sylvester, you could be forgiven for answering: fuck it, let’s boogie! But, you know, you’re here and so are we so, to quote Double Dee and Steinski, what does it all mean? Are you looking for - to take a few possibles - Kate Bush picture discs, early 80s Japanese synth on the Vanity label, European Led Zeppelin 45’s (because of course they did not deign to release singles in the UK), or vastly overpriced and not so good druggy LPs from the psychedelic fatso’s stall (Rainbow Ffolly, we salute you)? Or are you just drifting, browsing, going where the mood and the vinyl takes you? That’s where Utrecht scores. -

NJAHPERD Student Workshop, November 5Th, 2006 Have Fun – Be Safe – No Put Downs – Be Committed – Include Everyone
NJAHPERD Student Workshop, November 5th, 2006 Have Fun – Be Safe – No Put Downs – Be Committed – Include Everyone Ice Breakers, Games and Team Building Challenges With Minimal Equipment Presented by Peter Rattigan Icebreaker Warm Ups 7-11 (Project Adventure Curriculum) Equipment: None Procedure: A good icebreaker for any size group, and non verbal. Have participants move around a defined area and play “7” with each person they “meet”. “7” is played as silent rock - paper - scissors, except that players must show a certain number of fingers (no rude gestures please!) Keep trying until the partner’s combined scores equal 7. When 7 is achieved, they move on to another partner. Variations: Advanced game: “11” - use both sets of hands. Target score is 11. Not easy... Processing points: Non verbal communication, strategy and compromise – which player kept the same number, which player adjusted/compromised? Evolution (Project Adventure Curriculum) Equipment: None Procedure: Large group, open space. Have players meet various others, just like in 7-11. However, this time they play regular rock-paper-scissors. Everyone starts out as an egg (good egg impressions, please!) The winner of rock-paper scissors EVOLVES into a cro-magnon, loser stays an egg. Cro-magnon winners evolve into humans (homo sapiens sapiens). Human winners evolve into super humans (homo sapiens superiorus). Each time players play, the loser devolves to the previous level. Eggs can go no lower. Superior humans can go no higher OR lower. Make up actions for each character and tell players that dramatic effect is important, including sounds. Variations: See if the superhumans can evolve everyone into superhuman status. -
Food, Grooming, and Cultural Pathways of Human Development in Burma-Myanmar and the United States
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Embodied Foundations of the Self: Food, Grooming, and Cultural Pathways of Human Development in Burma-Myanmar and the United States A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology by Seinenu M. Thein 2013 © Copyright by Seinenu M. Thein 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Embodied Foundations of the Self: Food, Grooming, and Cultural Pathways of Human Development in Burma-Myanmar and the United States by Seinenu M. Thein Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Patricia M. Greenfield, Chair The present dissertation seeks to understand the origins of cultural differences in the self by examining two forms of embodied caregiving practices: eating and grooming. Although both eating and grooming lie at the intersection of culture, mind, biology, and social relationships, neither has been examined by psychologists as being possible mechanisms for cultural learning. Chapter 1 describes a mixed-methods (quantitative and qualitative) cross-cultural comparison of children’s eating practices in Burma-Myanmar and the United States. The study uses naturalistic video data of 55 children during routine family mealtimes to analyze non-verbal eating behaviors. Results indicate that there are significant cultural differences between families in Burma-Myanmar and the United States in embodied eating practices with regard to three variables: 1. Independence, 2. Agency, and 3. Social Intimacy. Children in the United States are more independent in their eating than children in Burma-Myanmar. Children in the United States are also more agentic, more frequently taking the initiative to eat; in Burma-Myanmar, the caregiver ii more often initiates eating. -
