The ancient Olympics differed from the modern Games in several key ways. Only free Greek men could compete, and the Games were always held in Olympia rather than moving to different locations. While athletes competed to bring glory to their hometowns, the ancient Olympics were also part of a major religious festival honoring Zeus. The Olympics grew over time from a one-day event to five days and only included a few events like running, long jump, and wrestling. Women could not compete but could own winning chariot teams. The Olympics were one of the major events that helped educate Greek citizens and bring prestige to victors' cities.Olympics ( ancient Olympics, modern Olympics and special Olympics)

India is one of the emerging BRICS economies along with Brazil, Russia, China, and South Africa. Together the BRICS countries represent over 3 billion people and $4 trillion in foreign reserves. However, India's sports budget has decreased over 50% from 2009 levels, currently allocating only $1.15 billion in 2012. There is a lack of training facilities and infrastructure in India to develop athletes despite the large sports budget. Private organizations have had to fund many of India's Olympic medalists due to the lack of support from the government. Improving funding, facilities, and incentives is needed to enhance India's athletic performance going forward.Rio Olympic - 2016

This document discusses the caste system in India and the roles and rules associated with different castes. It explains that under the caste system, one's social class is determined by birth. The four main castes, from highest to lowest, are Brahmins (priests and teachers), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (traders and merchants), and Shudras (laborers). Kshatriyas originated as the top caste but lost power to Brahmins. Their traditional role was to protect the people and uphold religious texts, and today many work in government and politics. Punishments under caste laws were more lenient for higher castes.Current issues ppt

Depression and anxiety differentially influence physical symptom reporting. A study found that people who felt more depressed believed they had experienced more symptoms, even accounting for physical signs of depression. Another study found that participants induced to feel anxious reported a higher number of current physical symptoms. A third study found that anxious participants reported more current symptoms while depressed participants reported more retrospective symptoms. The researchers concluded that depression is associated with exaggerated recall of negative past experiences while anxiety is associated with vigilance of potential threats in the present.Color your life: how to spice up your life with colors.
