Shaolin Kong Fu：A Blend of Buddhism and Martial Arts

On March 22,2006,Russian President Vladimir Putin paid a visit to the Shaolin Temple in central China＇s Henan Province during his two-day state visit to China,Guided by Abbot Shi Yongxin ,the president appreciated Shaolin Kong Fu which has been nurtured in profound oriental philosophical values,In his talks with the abbot,Putin said,＂I would like to thank the Shaolin Temple for giving me such an opportunity,I want to be here,because I have long admired and respected Shaolin Temple and its cultural traditions.＂     

平衡叫之新手篇与专家篇

左手方开叫1红桃,然后两家不叫到你。你的第一声叫牌好像很容易,那就来吧,完成你的叫牌:1黑桃。同伴用1NT维持叫牌,又轮到你了。如果你是开叫的1黑桃,这手牌将会做个非常常规的2黑桃再叫,但这里多少有点不一样。事实上你处在平衡位置这一点将会影响你所有叫品的范围。     

A "dry and wet hybrid" lithography technique for multilevel replication templates: Applications to microfluidic neuron culture and two-phase global mixing

A broad range of microfluidic applications, ranging from cell culture to protein crystallization, requires multilevel devices with different heights and feature sizes (from micrometers to millimeters). While state-of-the-art direct-writing techniques have been developed for creating complex three-dimensional shapes, replication molding from a multilevel template is still the preferred method for fast prototyping of microfluidic devices in the laboratory. Here, we report on a "dry and wet hybrid" technique to fabricate multilevel replication molds by combining SU-8 lithography with a dry film resist (Ordyl). We show that the two lithography protocols are chemically compatible with each other. Finally, we demonstrate the hybrid technique in two different microfluidic applications: (1) a neuron culture device with compartmentalization of different elements of a neuron and (2) a two-phase (gas-liquid) global micromixer for fast mixing of a small amount of a viscous liquid into a larger volume of a less viscous liquid.     

提高学生参加体育活动的积极性

<正> 虽然人们常以为儿童对参加体育活动有天生的兴趣,但健康问题专家特别忧虑的是越来越多的儿童选择文静的生活方式。习惯性的懒散增加了诸如肥胖症、气喘、糖尿病、高血压及冠心病等健康问题。参加适度的体育活动,是实现健康的生活方式的一个重要方法。研究表明,锻炼有助于减轻急躁、抑郁和紧张,对情绪状态产生有益的影响。体育训练可以增加人的自信心,认识自己的身体能力,调节自身易变的情绪,使儿童能克服自己的心理紧张。有证据表明,在校学生的身体健康状态在下降,这也许可归因于学生坐着的时间太多,即使开设了体育课,活动量和强度也不足以提高学生的心肺功能。     

教育好每一位学生是我们不可推卸的责任——从个别中学生轻生谈起

心理学认为,人有各种生理、心理、物质、精神的需求,由于某种原因使需求的满足受阻或中断的状态称为挫折,会给人带来情绪上的打击与威胁,使心理失去平衡,甚至导致死亡。自杀是有意识地毁灭自己的生命,是自认为处于完全绝望时的悲惨结局。作为一种社会现象,自杀在古今中外各种形态的社会中都有,在现代社会处于飞速发展变革的进程中,更是人类面临的一个严重的问题。当今日本是自杀率最高的国家之一,青     

Forced suffocation of infants with baby wipes: a previously undescribed form of child abuse

BACKGROUND: Foreign body aspiration in children is commonly seen in emergency departments and carries a significant mortality. Abusive foreign body suffocation is not well described. METHODS: We present a case-series of four infants who presented with aspiration of a baby wipe. RESULTS: Each child was found to be a victim of child physical abuse with substantial morbidity and mortality associated with the aspiration of the wipe and associated injuries. CONCLUSIONS: We recommend that infants who present with a baby wipe aspiration should be considered as likely victims of child abuse and physicians should evaluate each infant for associated injuries of the oropharynx, skin, skeleton, and head.     

"Yes, we can!": Perceptions of collective efficacy sources in volleyball

Collective efficacy can be defined as a group's shared confidence that they will successfully achieve their goal. We examined which behaviours and events are perceived as sources of collective efficacy beliefs in a volleyball context. In study 1, volleyball coaches from the highest volleyball leagues (n = 33) in Belgium indicated the most important sources of collective efficacy. This list was then adapted based on the literature and on feedback given by an expert focus group, resulting in a 40-item questionnaire. In Study 2, coaches and players from all levels of volleyball in Belgium (n = 2365) rated each of these sources on their predictive value for collective efficacy. A principal component analysis revealed that the 40 sources could be divided into eight internally consistent factors. Positive supportive communication (e.g., enthusiasm after making a point) was identified as the factor most predictive for positive collective efficacy beliefs. The factor referring to the negative emotional reactions of players (e.g., discouraging body language) was the most predictive for negative collective efficacy beliefs. These findings offer a starting point for the design of continuous measurements of collective efficacy through observation.     

Validity and reliability of tests determining performance-related components of wheelchair basketball

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of wheelchair basketball field tests. Nineteen wheelchair basketball players performed 10 test items twice to determine the reliability. The validity of the tests was assessed by relating the scores to the players' classification and competition standard, and rating of coach and player. Six field tests' test-retest showed good reliability (Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.80-0.97), while the pass-for-accuracy, free throws, lay-up and spot shot showed weak to moderate reliability (ICC = 0.26-0.67). Most tests showed moderate to good validity (r > 0.60). The results suggest that wheelchair basketball field tests are reliable and valid with the exception of the shooting and passing items, which should be interpreted carefully.
