Calisthenics is the oldest form of resistance training using only one's own body weight. It was practiced by ancient Greeks and Spartans to build strength and endurance. In the 1800s, it experienced a resurgence along with the development of gymnastics and strongmen performances. In the mid-20th century, Charles Atlas popularized calisthenics through comic books, but its emphasis on functional strength declined in favor of bodybuilding's focus on muscle size, including through steroid use.

Calisthenics is the oldest form of resistance training using only body weight. It was practiced by ancient Spartan armies and Greeks who valued physical strength, beauty, and proportion. Calisthenics experienced a golden age in the 1800s and 1950s but then declined as bodybuilding focused solely on muscle size using steroids and weights instead of natural whole-body development. It has endured for millennia due to its simplicity and effectiveness without equipment.

2) Total spending on finance and accounting BPO is expected to exceed $25 billion in 2013, with multi-process engagements reaching $5 billion. Industries experiencing significant changes like telecom and retail are showing the highest growth.
This document discusses responsive and future-friendly content. It emphasizes that the future cannot be predicted and that disruption will accelerate. It suggests that proprietary solutions will initially dominate as existing standards, workflows and infrastructure will not keep up. It advocates for content-first, mobile-first and orbital responsive content approaches. It also discusses ensuring content remains meaningful and valuable across contexts by focusing on patterns, priority guides, identity, dimensions and relationships rather than just scale.
Calisthenics is the oldest form of resistance training using only body weight. It was practiced in ancient Greece and contributed to the Spartans' strength and endurance in battle. While calisthenics experienced popularity in the 1800s and 1950s, the 1960s-70s saw a shift toward bodybuilding focused solely on muscle size, often using steroids. Calisthenics was then seen as only for vulnerable groups and its advanced techniques were lost, though it created some of the strongest humans ever.

Here are the main types of sewing machines:
- Lockstitch sewing machine - This is the most common type of home sewing machine. It produces a locked stitch that secures the fabric. It is also called a "domestic sewing machine".
- Overlock sewing machine - Also called a serger, it finishes seam allowances and prevents fabric raveling with its overcasting stitch. It is best suited for sewing knits.
- Embroidery machine - Specifically designed for decorative embroidery work. It has larger bobbin areas and hoops to hold fabric in place for detailed stitching patterns.
- Industrial sewing machine - Heavier-duty machines used in commercial garment production. They can stitch faster and handle thicker

The document provides an overview and summary of the Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) conducted in Haiti following the 2010 earthquake. Some key points:
- The earthquake caused massive damage across Haiti, killing over 220,000 people, injuring 300,000, and leaving 1.5 million people homeless. Infrastructure like housing, hospitals, and schools were heavily damaged.
- The PDNA estimated total damage and losses at $7.8 billion, equivalent to Haiti's entire GDP. Private sector losses accounted for 70% of the total. Housing suffered the most with $2.3 billion in damage alone.
- Beyond reconstruction, Haiti's needs over the next 3 years were estimated
Aa reader urban_imaginaries_summer_2015April Aryal
This document discusses planning as a form of persuasive storytelling. It summarizes the author's previous argument that planning can be viewed as planners constructing stories about the future through techniques like emplotment, characterization, and language. It then addresses three main critiques of this view: that it risks fabrication over truth, ignores issues of power, and oversimplifies storytelling. The author revises their argument to say that for plans to be persuasive to diverse audiences, they must make space for multiple local narratives and allow them to inform each other through dialogue. However, powerful actors may try to marginalize competing stories.
