Webster’s Dictionary defines it as “a black American entertainment having a cake as prize for the most accomplished steps and figures in walking; a stage dance developed from walking steps and figures typically involving a high prance with backward tilt; an easy task.” The Cakewalk seems to have begun in the days of slavery, when black folks strutted along in a fanciful manner in imitation of formal white dancing. Supposedly the name comes from the custom of the master awarding a cake to the couple who put on the best performance.
The dance came back around in the twentieth century when white folks started to imitate the black version. Below are a few short clips of cakewalks in the early twentieth century, featuring both black and white dancers. Hóman Bálint munkái. Az 1890 utáni német fejlődésben a nagy fordulat, korszakos változás ténye abban nyilvánul, hogy hirtelen egészen más szempontok érvényesülnek a vezető elit kiválasztásában, e változás tehát az állam vezetésében érezteti hatását.

Now He’s Free & On Track For Nobel Prize. A young genius whose IQ is said said to be higher than Albert Einstein, is on his way to possibly winning a Nobel Prize after dropping out of elementary school and his special ed programs.
From a young age, Jacob Barnett was very interested in Math and Physics. Numbers were his passion and he was getting bored of early grades of elementary school as they did not come close to challenging him. Finally, his parents made the decision to take him out of public school and special ed programs regardless of the fact doctors had diagnosed him with ASD. This Is What Happens When A Kid Leaves Traditional Education.
Logan Laplante is a 13 year-old boy who was taken out of the education system to be home schooled instead.
Not only was he home schooled, but Logan had the ability to tailor his education to his interests and also his style of learning, something traditional education does not offer. As Logan has mentioned, when he grows up he wants to be happy and healthy. At a TEDx talk in 2013, he discussed how hacking his education is helping him achieve that goal.
Logan’s story can be seen in a similar light as Jacob Barnett‘s story who was first put in Special Ed by his school until he was pulled out of standard education and is now seen as an incredibly intelligent young person who is on track to winning a Nobel Prize one day. I also recently did a TEDx talk in 2014 about my story of leaving college for good. More on Education & Homeschooling. Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity. BBC History - The Wipers Times: the funny side of World War I. 9 September 2013Last updated at 18:00 The Wipers Times, a satirical magazine written by frontline soldiers during the First World War, is the subject of a new TV drama written by Private Eye editor Ian Hislop.

CalvinCoolidgeRadio. This Day in Quotes: “The business of America is business” – a famously unfair misquote… When President Warren G.
Harding died from a heart-related problem in 1923, Vice President Calvin Coolidge became the 30th President of the United States. The following year, with his popularity buoyed by a strong economy of the “Roaring Twenties”, Coolidge handily won the 1924 presidential election, using the campaign slogan “Keep Cool With Coolidge.” Unlike some presidents, “Silent Cal” Coolidge wasn’t known for making memorable statements.
The most famous quote associated with him is a line about business being the business of America. That line is often given as “The business of America is business” or “The business of the American people is business.” In fact, both of those versions are misquotes.

Medicine and the Scientific Revolution. Extraordinary advances During the 17th and 18th centuries, scientific and medical knowledge advanced at an extraordinary pace.
Many of Galen’s misconceptions were finally overturned. The Englishman William Harvey (1578-1657) accurately described the circulation of blood in the body, confirming the findings of earlier scholars (such as Ibn Nafis and more recent Europeans). He added the critical experimental finding that blood is "pumped" around the body by the heart.
Harvey’s work was pursued by others, including English physician Richard Lower (1631-91). The 18th century, known as the Age of Enlightenment, was an era of progress in many respects.

Five years later, he was convicted by an all-white jury of crossing state lines with a white woman for "immoral purposes" and was sentenced to a year and a day in prison. 100 years on from his trial and conviction, what legacy did this hugely divisive and controversial character leave for other black athletes and for the civil rights movement in America?

Gabriele D’Annunzio and the Free State of Fiume. The modern Republic of Užupis is the most modern manifestation of a bohemian Free State, but it has certain parallels to the even more remarkable Free State of Fiume (1919-1920). Of the various anarchist enclaves that popped up during the interwar period – Makhno’s Ukraine, communes in Spain during the civil war – the legend of Fiume has the paradoxical distinction of being both the most interesting and the least wellknown. The most glamorous account comes from anarchist theorist and poet Hakim Bey who referred to the state as the ‘last Pirate Utopia’: Gabriele D’Annunzio – decadent poet, artist, musician, aesthete, womaniser, pioneer daredevil aeronautics, black magician, genius and cad – emerged from World War I as a hero with a small army at his beck and command the'Arditi.'
