| 134 Views | A Short History of Scuba Masks By : limhq71
Since the human eye is not designed to see in water, anyone who enters the sub-aquatic realm must wear a facemask in order to see; the reason for this is that the optical density of water is completely different to air for which the eye is designed. Allowing for an air gap between the eye and the water overcomes this limitation - we can focus underwater and vision is restored. |

Description of Thaiboxing Thai-boxing, the national sport of Thailand, is perhaps the most brutal sport in existence. Participants batter each other with punches, kicks, knees and elbows. There are few rules in Thai-boxing and boils down to survival of the fittest. A match consists of five, three minute rounds. Punching, knee and elbow strikes and kicking techniques are allowed to any part of the body, except the groin. Because of the hard, fast paced action, it is very important for the fighters to be highly conditioned, both physically and mentally. A fighter entering the ring in anything but top condition can expect, at the very least, to be knocked unconscious. There is also a chance of death if not properly prepared. In Thailand, there are many deaths each year as a result of the beating taken in the ring. |

| 127 Views | More info about basketball. By : Sam
Basketball is one team sport where players can achieve noticeable improvement working out by themselves or with just a handful of players.
When I was young, I used to spend hours upon hours ??shooting hoops??, as my mother would describe it. Though I knew my limitations as a basketball player, if there was a particular shot or a spot on the court I wanted to perfect, I would spend hours practicing it. I worked endlessly on a hook shot, not only on my strong hand, but on my weak hand as well. My ability to make this shot probably reached it??s potential, and now 35 years later, I still use this same hook shot when playing in my driveway against my own kids.
There are an endless number of creative drills a young player can do by themselves to help increase their skill level. Another drill I call the ??Rock Drill?? or ??Crazy Dribble?? drill is set up with a youth player putting down three or four rocks in a line about 10-15 feet from the basket. He then dribbles along the line of the rocks going toward the basket. The ball ultimately hits one of the rocks and bounces away from the player. This is simulating a game like situation just like a defender hitting the ball away. The player then moves quickly to recover the ball on a fly, squares up toward the basket, and takes a jump shot. Don??t we see this happen in almost every game? If the youth player has a desire to make his school team, isn??t it better for him when practicing alone to simulate these realistic situations that happen in a game?
Here is another drill that will help a player??s skills when practicing alone. Take a baseball cap. Staple or glue a glove to the edge of the bill so the majority of the glove is in the player??s face when he wears the cap. The player then does some regular outside shooting on the move, getting his rebound, dribbling, shooting etc. The glove, and I call this drill ??Hands In the Face??, will give the effect of a defender obstructing the shooters vision. This helps the player practice shooting in a more realistic atmosphere.
Creativity knows no limits. Parents who are not even into sports can come up with numerous ideas using different techniques and props to make practice basketball in one??s own driveway fun and a chance to improve one??s skills. |

People have been telling stories since the dawn of time, drawing upon their voice to convey their messages to others in their circle of influence. Over the centuries, the art of communicating with other people about a given purpose and the transmission of the spoken word, the most powerful, persuasive, and distinctly human tool in any marketers arsenal, has evolved to the degree that you don't have to be in the same room to get a message across, even the same country for that matter. Geographic locations and time zones afford little to no obstacle for communicating with others in a meaningful and cohesive way. |
