A Worldwide Day's Worth of Food - Photo Essays - TIME - 0 views

  • The authors used a typical recent day as a starting point for their interviews with 80 people in 30 countries. They specifically chose not to cover daily caloric averages, as they wanted to include some extreme examples of eating, like one woman's diet on a bingeing day or the small number of calories a herder in Kenya ate during extreme drought. The texts in the book provide the context for the photographs, detailing each person's diet, culture, and circumstance at the moment they were photographed: a snapshot in time. A complete methodology is available in the book.

Madrid, Spain - Sports and Pastimes - 0 views

  • Cycling This is a sport that competes for second place with Bullfighting, after Football, for the most television spectators.
    • L Butler
       
      This is an interesting and somewhat surprising fact. It will make a good 'do now' question as students walk in the door - What are the two most popular sports in Spain?
  • Football Without question this sport is foremost in the minds of the majority of Spaniards and throughout the country
    • L Butler
       
      It might say football - but it is not American football. Futbol = kicking the ball around with your foot trying to score in the net, aka soccer to Americans.
  • The game is based on the principle of propelling a hard ball, using a basket-like glove at great force against hard high walls, much in the manner of squash but without using rackets.
    • L Butler
       
      Pelota is uniquely Spanish. The word 'pelota' by itself means 'ball' in Spanish.

  • Bullfighting The bullring with its theatrical and sporting elements is considered by the population as the second most popular pastime in Spain.
    • L Butler
       
      Bull fighting is a very traditional 'sport' in Spain. To people from non-Spanish speaking countries they might feel it is uncalled for violence to the animals. Just because it is different from the United States does not make it wrong.
  •  
    This website provides a short summary of the main sports that you can find in Spain. There are many similarities and differences to the United States that will provide discussion points in class.
