New research shows that dominant or upright postures can help people feel and even behave more confidently. An analysis by the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), the University of Bamberg, and The Ohio State University, has confirmed what other studies supported. The team evaluated information from 130 experiments with a total of 10,000 participants. The results disproved the claim that certain poses influence the hormone levels of a person. Body language and posture are popular tools studied in psychology. Psychologist Robert Körner said: "In therapy, they can help people feel secure and experience positive feelings." The research focuses on the extent to which very bold poses influence a person's feelings and self-worth. The victory pose with outstretched arms is a common example which is meant to increase self-confidence. Körner adds: "However, many of these studies are inconclusive and were conducted with small samples. Moreover, studies sometimes have … [Read more...] about Winning pose: Standing like Superman or Wonder Woman gives you super confidence

After a crowded primary night, some of North Carolina and Pennsylvania ’s races are still too close to call this morning. Former president Donald Trump saw many of his preferred candidates triumph in both states, but others flopped or are in races that are too tight to call; we can expect plenty of arguments about who triumphed and who truly lost. Meanwhile in some races, progressive and moderate Democrats duked it out while in others, the field was clear. Here are some of the top takeaways from the events of last night. Firstly, it’s clear that while Trump’s endorsement helps, it isn’t a guarantee. As of Wednesday, it is still too early to determine whether Dr Mehmet Oz , the former television host that Trump endorsed, won or lost the Senate primary in Pennsylvania. But the fact that the ex-president’s backing failed to slingshot him far ahead of the pack shows that a Trump endorsement won’t override reservations conservatives have about a candidate – as many did with Dr Oz, … [Read more...] about From Madison Cawthorn to Dr Oz, who really won and lost on Trump’s big primary night

The time is 6 am, and the sun is just about to rise from behind the horizon. There is a nip in the air that is unusual for this time of the year. I am seated on the super-plush seat of the Indian Roadmaster Dark Horse, as its massive 1,890cc V-twin chugs at a relaxed pace. The deep burbles from the twin-exhausts intermix with Coldplay’s riveting music playing through the quad speakers of the 200W music system. I am not sure about the American Dream, but riding a big, American touring machine is an incredible experience that will be etched in my memory for a long time. Here is the reason why: Take a stance To me, the first word that comes to mind on seeing the Roadmaster is ‘elegant’. The enormous fairing is beautifully shaped, with its curves and creases, and since this is the Dark Horse version, it does away with the chrome outline around the LED headlight and the twin aux lights that flank it. Instead, the LED aux lights are placed on the indicators, outside the fairing, which … [Read more...] about Indian Roadmaster Dark Horse: Black beauty on the road

For R. Satwiksairaj it has been a dream come true! “In 2015, when my teammates were training, I went to watch the semifinals and final of the Thomas Cup in China. And, believe me, I was cheering for Indonesia which was facing Korea in the final. Then, I wondered whether I would ever be on the court playing the Thomas Cup final,” said a delighted Satwik in an exclusive chat with The Hindu on his return from Bangkok after playing a lead role along with his doubles partner Chirag Shetty in India winning the Thomas Cup for the first time. “Winning the Thomas Cup is a different kind of feeling” “For me Bangkok has always been a lucky venue. That was where I won my first ABC medal (silver in mixed doubles and bronze in doubles in the under-15 category), our (he and Chirag) first Super Series title when we won the  Thailand Open Super 500 title in 2019 to name a few,” he said. “So when we were facing Indonesia, there was that gut feeling and the burning desire to be the champions … [Read more...] about Satwiksairaj over the moon
