Development economics is a branch of economics which deals with
economic aspects of the development process in low-income
countries. Its focus is not only on methods of promoting economic
growth and structural change but also on improving the potential
for the mass of the population, for example, through health and
education and workplace conditions, whether through public or
private channels. Thus, development economics involves the creation
of theories and methods that aid in the determination of types of
policies and practices and can be implemented at either the
domestic or international level. This may involve restructuring
market incentives or using mathematical methods like inter-temporal
optimization for project analysis, or it may involve a mixture of
quantitative and qualitative methods. Unlike in many other fields
of economics, approaches in development economics may incorporate
social and political factors to devise particular plans. Different
approaches may consider the factors that contribute to economic
convergence or non-convergence across households, regions, and
countries.

Dance is a sport and art form that generally refers to movement of
the body, usually rhythmic and to music, used as a form of
expression, social interaction or presented in a spiritual or
performance setting. Dance may also to regarded as a form of
nonverbal communication between humans, and is also performed by
other animals (bee dance, patterns of behaviour such as a mating
dance). Gymnastics, figure skating and synchronized swimming are
sports dance disciplines, while martial arts kata are often
compared to dances. Motion in inanimate objects may also be
described as dances (the leaves danced in the wind), and certain
musical forms or genres. Definitions of what constitutes dance are
dependent on social, cultural, aesthetic, artistic and moral
constraints and range from functional movement (such as folk dance)
to virtuoso techniques such as ballet. Dance can be participatory,
social or performed for an audience. It can also be ceremonial,
competitive or erotic

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A gambit (from ancient
Italian gambetto, meaning tripping) is a chess opening in which a
player, most often White, sacrifices material, usually a pawn, with
the hope of achieving a resulting advantageous position. Some
well-known examples are the King's Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.f4), Queen's
Gambit (1.d4 d5 2.c4), and Evans Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4
Bc5 4.b4). A gambit used by Black may also be called a gambit
(e.g., Latvian Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 f5), Englund Gambit (1.d4 e5),
but is sometimes called a "countergambit" (e.g., Albin
Countergambit) (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5) or Greco Counter-Gambit, an
old-fashioned name for the Latvian Gambit). The word "gambit" was
originally applied to chess openings in 1561 by Spanish priest Ruy
Lopez de Segura, from an Italian expression dare il gambetto (to
put a leg forward in order to trip someone). Lopez studied this
maneuver, and so the Italian word gained the Spanish form gambito
that led to French gambit, which has influenced the English
spelling of the word. The broader sense of "opening move meant to
gain advantage" was first recorded in English in 1855.
