The study （1） describes and reflects upon an exercise is recreation metaphor, （2） establishes the principles and processes used to develop a sport park within which exercise is recreation, and （3） presents a comparative analysis of the exercise is recreation approach with a UK quality framework for ＂exercise referrals＂. Methods： Four years of documentation were collated and placed into 14 categories： （1） university strategies, （2） plans of the site, （3） policy documents, （4） minutes of a steering group, （5） contemporary documents, （6） organisational charts, （7） responses to local government policies on sport, （8） consultation documents, （9） operational procedures, （10） facility specifications, （11） partnership agreements, （12） material relating to the university＇s work on events, （13） notes on the universities sport department, and （14） timetables. These data were analysed through a 4-stage process which used recreation as the analytical theme for a comparative analysis. Results： The characteristics of the exercise is recreation metaphor in this case are （1） a focus on the experience of the user, （2） the promotion of well-being, （3） the importance of community, （4） embracing inclusivity, （5） sport, （6） aesthetics, and （7） leisure time. The principles and processes used to develop the sport park were （1） custodianship, （2） partnerships, （3） values, （4） inter-professional working, （5） local heritage, （6） change, （7） the natural park environment, and （8） ＂riding the bike as you build it＂. The comparative analysis with a UK quality framework for ＂exercise referrals＂ clearly shows a difference from an exercise is recreation approach. Conclusion： Exercise is recreation and may enable individuals and communities to reach a state of well-being. ~ 2016 Production and hosting by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of Shanghai University of Sport.

These recreations symbolize not only a privileged visual interpretation of a nation, but they also allow us to examine how a given society reflects itself through the fiction. In this sense, the objective of this paper is to reflect upon the Portuguese updated filmic adaptation of The Crime of Father Amaro （1880） by the canonical author Eta de Queiroz. On one hand, the author intends to rethink about the Portuguese identity portrayed by the film and, at the same time, the author manages to observe how the Portuguese society is revealed. On the other hand, the paper aims to analyze the particular process of the adaptation of The Crime of Father Amaro following a qualitative methodology展开更多

Culture and art buildings were built in Bukhara and around its territory. Ancient Bukhara turned out as one of the biggest centers of Middle East in the period （era） of outstanding Somoniy （in the IX-X centuries） and Temurids （in the XIV-XV centuries）, particular, its developed literature, culture, architecture, and music art; especially, as being the capital of dynasty Mangits （at the beginning of the century XVIII-XX）, served as the groundwork of forming Shashmakom samples in groups. This time among a number of poets and artists, lived Akhmad Danish--the most mature scientist, philosopher, poet, calligrapher, and painter, Abdurauf Fitrat--poet and writer, theoretician, musician and political activist.展开更多

Methods In 286 cases of spasmodic CP, 7 kinds of Chinese massage were adopted, named massage on acupoints to promote circulation of the Governor Vessel, massage for strengthening the spleen and benefiting qi, spine-pinching therapy, segmental massage, foot massage, massage for promoting the recovery of muscle strength and massage for promoting ROM of joints. Chinese massage was applied in musical background. Buddha music and five-element music of Chinese medicine （music of the Heart, Liver and Kidney Meridians） were optioned. The treatment was given once or twice a day and 30 days made one course. The angles of femoral adductor and dorsal flexion of foot as well as the score of composite spasticity scale （CSS） were observed before and after treatment so that the therapeutic effect was assessed. Results In 30 days of treatment, 106 cases （37. 1%） were effective markedly, 172 cases （60. 1%） effective and 8 cases （2.8%） failed. The angle of dorsal flexion of foot was （105.64± 12.66）° and （76.58± 9.89）° before and after treatment respectively; the angle of femoral adductor was （119.89±25.47）° and （158.99± 18.66）° before and after treatment respectively; the score of CSS was （12.39±2.56） and （7. 069 ± 2.97） before and after treatment respectivel, there was significant difference before and after treatment （all P〈0.01）. Conclusion Chinese massage for promoting the Governor Vessel, benefiting the kidney and strengthening the spleen combined with music therapy brings the extremely active effect into play on the recovery of sitting, kneeling, standing and walking for children with CP.展开更多
