Ninh explains - The Rules of Racquetball The object of the game is to score more points

than your opponent.

Racquetball, sometimes referred to as 'American Racquetball', is played indoors on a court

with these measurements.

This is similar to the games of Squash and British Racketball, but with a few significant

differences.

Players play with bigger racket heads, and a bouncier ball on a longer and narrower court.

The game starts with a player serving the ball.

To serve, a player must be in the serving zone and bounce the ball onto the floor before

hitting it.

The ball must bounce behind the short line and travel over the receiving line.

The opponent must wait behind the receiving line during a serve, and cannot cross it until

the ball has crossed the receiving line.

You have to play the ball by hitting it on to the front wall.

The ball may hit any of the walls and the ceiling, but you are only allowed to let the

ball bounce on the floor once.

If you let the ball bounce twice on the floor, you lose a point.

The idea of this game is to make it difficult or impossible for your opponent to play a

good shot back, or to force an error out of your opponent.

This exchange is known as a rally.

In Racquetball, you can only score a point if you serve the ball.

If the server wins the rally, they score one point and continues to serve.

If the opposing player wins the rally, then no point is scored, but that player then takes

over serving.

Once you play a shot, you have to try and get out of the way of the ball AND your opponent.

If you tried to get out of the way but couldn't, this is known as a 'hinder' or a 'replay

hinder' and the point is replayed again.

If you obstruct your opponent to deny them a clear winning shot, your opponent will win

the rally.

This is known as a 'penalty hinder'.

The first player to score 15 points wins the game, and Racquetball is usually played to

the best of three games.

The last game is only played to 11 points.

The person who wins two games the fastest … wins.

That's pretty much it, but there's a few other things you'll need to know before

playing or watching Racquetball.

For example:

Serve Faults.

There's a lot of things you cannot do when serving the ball, without going into too much

detail, here's a list of things you cannot do.

Double Fault Similar to Tennis, you are allowed two chances

to serve the ball properly.

If you make two serving faults in a row, you lose the serve and the serve goes to your

opponent.

Called Hinder If you believe that by making your next shot

you risk injuring your opponent, you can call a hinder – and the result is that you replay

the point.

In Racquetball safety is of paramount importance.

of Racketball.

But if you have found this video at all helpful, please like share and subscribe.

It takes me ages to make one of these things and good karma is very much appreciated.

Follow me on Twitter also, but in the meantime, enjoy Racquetball.

Minecraft - 5 Mean Traps - Duration: 5:02.

Hey guys I'm NiceMark and today I'd like to show you 5 really mean traps that you can

buiild in Minecraft.

If you use them then you're a mean person since it might require someone else's help

to get your victims out of the trap.

Let's take a look at them!

So imagine you've just finished your long and busy day and now you're heading back to

sleep so you don't get bothered by all the mobs that spawn during the night and you can

actually see what's happening in your world.

So you go to your bed, in my case there's a small obstacle on it, but I guess we'll

have to just deal with it and sleep as is.

So now you're thinking about all the things you're gonna do after you sleep and the time

does indeed set to day.. but you die.

Okay you might think, it's a trap!

I'll just respawn and continue with my game.

However it's not that simple since you'll keep spawning there forever.

The way this works is really simple.

There is no redstone behind it and it's probably the cheapest trap you can build in Minecraft.

So here's the lava and that's it.

Notice that I placed slabs around the bed.

This prevents the game from placing you there and tries to place you into another available

space instead, in this case it's the corner with lava in it.

I've also built another design.

This one uses fall damage instead.

After you spawn in the corner you pick up an item off of a pressure plate behind another

corner.

The floor behind you is retracted and you fall down to your death.

Respawning won't help.

At the bottom there's a chain of hoppers that leads to an item elevator.

The items dropped by the victim can be put into a chest or picked up back at the surface.

This next trap will not work in singleplayer or regular multiplayer, but if you happen

to play on a server that has the /sethome command you can try placing an open fencegate

under a player's home and they should spawn on it and fall through.

You can also try simply using lava.

I'm not sure if it still works, but I was able to succesfully use this trap a few years

ago.

Here we've got a mine cart station with an automatic system to push the mine cart once

you get into it.

However at the other end there's a trap.

At the end there's an activator rail which will eject the player out of the mine cart.

It works just like the one with the bed -- there's no other place for the game to put the player

in, so it places them in the corner with lava.

I've also got one for the nether portal.

At first it seems just like your usual nether, however once you go through you activate a

trap which drops you in a lava pit.

Here you can do a double trap if you're extra evil.

Since the player is going to respawn at their bed you can also trap that with the first

bed trap and send them into a respawn loop.

Let's take a closer look at nether trap.

There's a ceiling in case the player jumps too much to prevent them from potentially

escaping.

The redstone behind it is simple - just 2 piston trapdoors and 2 pistons extending blocks

upwards to stop the player from running too fast.

There are hoppers under the lava which will try to catch items before they get burned

and put them into a chest.

The original signal from the tripwire is extended by 6 ticks to prevent the trapdoor from closing

too quickly.

And finally, one for the end portal.

For this trap you need an end portal, in my case I'll just spawn in it, however you would

use a real one in survival.

What you want to do is simply drop TNT into it.

That's it.

After you drop what you think is enough TNT you can just wait for a victim to jump into

it.

This is especially effective when players gear up to defeat the ender dragon for the

first time since they'll most likely spawn on a platform that's not easy to escape.

You might've noticed that the TNT took a while to blow up.

If you want to reduce that time I suggest going up around 30 blocks and dropping the

TNT into the end portal from there.

It will reduce the time it takes to blow up in the end.

And those are all of the traps that I wanted to show you today.

Let me know in the comments if you know of any other mean traps and if you've used them

in the past.

Thanks for watching and I'll see you all later, bye bye!

FAMOUS GRAVE TOUR - Holy Cross #2 (John Candy, Mary Astor, etc.) - Duration: 16:36.

Welcome to Hollywood Graveyard where we set out to remember and celebrate the

lives of those who lived to entertain us, by visiting their final resting places.

Today we continue our tour of Holy Cross Cemetery where we'll find such stars as

John Candy, Ray Bolger, Mary Astor, and many more.

Join us won't you?

Continuing our tour of Holy Cross Cemetery we'll be visiting the mausoleum

and the grounds surrounding it. There's nothing grim or doleful about

this mausoleum. The art is bright and colorful, modern, and full of life.

In addition to marble wall crypts there are also glass niches, all adorned with

Catholic symbolism. There are also several open-air courtyards on the north

side of the mausoleum. If you haven't done so already be sure to check out

part 1.

Picking up where we left off at part 1 we make our way over to the

mausoleum. We'll begin our tour on the lawn just

south of the mausoleum in Section P. Several spaces in from the road right at

the base of a tree is Hayden Rorke. He was a popular television actor during

the 60s and is best remembered as comedic foil Dr. Bellows on "I Dream of Jeannie,"

who was never quite able to figure out what was going on with Tony and Jeannie.

"Make it snow."

"Dr. Bellows, honestly."

"Try."

"Snow."

"I'm sorry about all this, sir. I'm sure it was all a coincidence."

"Snow."

He appeared in many other TV series of the era including "I Love Lucy,"

"The Twilight Zone," and "Perry Mason."

Across the street to the east is section N. Right next to the

road is Allison Hayes. She was an actress and model popular in many B-films of the

1950's, including "The Undead," and "Attack of the 50-Foot Woman."

"Attack of the 50-Foot Woman," incredibly huge with incredible desires for love

and vengeance.

Her health began to deteriorate in the 60s when she discovered that calcium

supplements she'd been taking contained extremely high levels of lead, and that

she was suffering from lead poisoning. She was diagnosed with leukemia and died

a few years later at just 46. Motivated by her situation the FDA amended laws

governing the importation of nutritional supplements.

Back four rows, several spaces

north is Jean Acker. She was an actress whose career began in the silent era.

Her notoriety doesn't come from her acting however, but her loved life. In 1919 she

met an aspiring actor named Rudolph Valentino.

They married after a whirlwind two-month courtship, but on their wedding night she

locked him out, quickly regretting the marriage as a big mistake. She fled and

the two were granted a divorce two years later. When asked why she married

Valentino she said, quote, "It was simply a case of California, the glamour of the

Southern California moonlight, and the fascinating lovemaking of the man."

She also had many lesbian lovers including actress Alla Nazimova. Jean was her protege.

Later in life she met a Ziegfeld Follies

girl Chloe Carter, who would become her life partner.

They're buried here next to each other.

Back one row just south is Daws Butler, one of Hollywood's favorite

cartoon voices. He worked mainly with Hanna-Barbera,

voicing such characters as Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Wally Gator, and Elroy Jetson.

"Maybe this will teach my folks to believe me. When I'm rich and famous

they'll be sorry."

"Yeah, but I'm hungry."

"Hungry already? Okay. I brought some food for us."

"Now which one do you want? We got a ham and cheese capsule,

a fried egg capsule, a chicken chow mein peel. Pick one.

"What'd you do that for Astro? That was supposed to last us for all whole week."

He was also the original voice of Cap'n Crunch.

North several spaces along this

same row if the King of Comedy, Mack Sennett. In 1912 he formed the

Keystone Film Company, the leading comedy studio of the era, which helped launch

the careers of stars like Mabel Normand, Charlie Chaplin, Fatty Arbuckle,

Ben Turpin, Gloria Swanson, and more. Sennett was an innovator of the slapstick style

of comedy. He also acted in many of his films. Here he is with Fatty Arbuckle,

watching a movie starring Mabel Normand... not quite able to grasp the illusion of

what he was seeing on screen.

One row up in several spaces north is actress Mary Astor. Her career began as

a teen in the silent era, and she transitioned smoothly into the talkies.

She won an Oscar for her role in the 1941 film "The Great Lie," and also starred

in the noir classic "The Maltese Falcon."

"You've got to trust me Mr. Spade. Oh I'm

so alone and afraid. I've got nobody to help me if you won't help me.

Be generous Mr. Spade. You're brave, you're strong. You can spare me some of

that courage and strength, surely. Help me Mr. Spade, I need help so badly. I've

no right to ask you, I know I haven't but I do ask you. Help me."

"You won't need much of anybody's help, you're good. Chiefly your eyes I think, and

that throb you get in your voice when you say things like, 'Be generous Mr. Spade.'"

"I deserved that."

Her memoir "A Life on Film" became a

best-seller. She once famously summed up her career

with the quote: "There are five stages in the life of an actor:

Who's Mary Astor?

Get me Mary Astor.

Get me a Mary Astor type.

Get me a young Mary Astor.

Who's Mary Astor?

Let's make our way over to the mausoleum, shall we?

Beautiful isn't it? Recently repainted too!

Heading into the main entrance, low on the wall to the left we find the crypt

of Ray Bolger. In our last tour we visited the Tin Man. Here we find the

Scarecrow. Ray Bolger played the part of the beloved bumbling man of straw in the

1939 film "The Wizard of Oz."

"What would you do with the brain if you had one?"

"Do? Why if I had a brain I could..."

[music]

Other film roles include "The Great Ziegfeld," and "Babes in Toyland."

Heading further into the mausoleum, to the right of the dome, is Joan Davis. She was a

comedic actress seen on stage, film, radio, and television. She is perhaps best

remembered for her role in the TV series "I Married Joan." She can also be seen in

films like Abbott and Costello's "Hold That Ghost."

Right next to Joan is singer Mario Lanza.

He was an Italian tenor known as "the singing Clark Gable" for his good

looks and powerful voice. After seeing Lanza perform at the

Hollywood Bowl, MGM head Louis B. Mayer signed him to a film contract. His films

include "The Toast of New Orleans," which featured a best-selling song "Be My Love,"

"The great Caruso," and "Because You're Mine," featuring the Oscar-nominated song of

the same name.

[music]

He was a bright star who burned out too quickly,

dying of a heart attack at the age of 38.

Heading back the way we came we turn

left before the entrance, then right at the statue. At the end of the first

corridor on the left, high on the wall, is Spike Jones. He was a musician whose band

Spike Jones and His City Slickers specialized in satirical and comedic

arrangements of popular and classical songs, accompanied by cowbells,

car horns, tin cans, gunshots, and more. I'll bet you've never heard Tchaikovsky

quite like this before.

Continuing down this corridor we turn right into room 7. High on the left

wall is John Candy, one of the most beloved comedians of the 20th century.

He was born in Canada and rose to prominence on the popular sketch comedy

series SCTV. His work on the show earned him two Emmys. He soon made his way to

Hollywood landing small roles in films like "1941." As his star rose he landed

prominent and leading roles in films like "Uncle Buck," and as the lovable Barf

on Spaceballs,

"What was that?"

"Never mind that... what was that?"

"Hi!"

"Who are you?"

"Barf."

"No in here mister, this is a Mercedes!"

"Nah, that's my name. Barf."

"Barf? What are you?"

"I'm a Mog. Half man, half dog. I'm my own best friend."

He was in the midst of filming "Wagon's East" when he died quite suddenly of a heart attack in

Mexico. He was just 43.

Two spaces down from John is Hollywood's favorite dad,

Fred MacMurray. He's perhaps best remembered for his role in "My Three Sons,"

one of televisions longest-running sitcoms. MacMurray played a single

widower raising his three sons, a revolutionary concept at the time when

the nuclear family was the norm on television. In order to work around his

schedule the series was shot out of sequence, with all of MacMurray's scenes

shot in a block, and all the other scenes shot later.

"My Three Sons," starring Fred MacMurray.

And as Bub, William Frawley."

He also starred in the Billy Wilder noir classic "Double Indemnity."

Entombed alongside Fred is his wife, June Haver, who was an actress in the 40s and 50s.

She was groomed by 20th Century Fox to be the next Betty Grable, though

she never achieved the same level of success as Betty. Her films include

"Look for the Silver Lining" with Ray Bolger who we visited earlier, and "The Dolly Sisters."

She retired from show business in the 1950s.

Heading back to the

entrance let's continue on to the other side of the mausoleum, to block 4.

Near the end, on the right wall, is the crypt of Ned Washington. He was a songwriter

and lyricist whose songs were featured in films and TV shows from the 20s to

the 60s. He was nominated for 11 Academy Awards in his career winning twice.

You'll recall our tour of Valhalla when we visited Leigh Harline, the man who

composed the music for "When You Wish Upon a Star." Ned wrote the lyrics.

Other songs include "Rawhide," "High Noon," and "Baby Mine" from "Dumbo."

[music]

For our last stop we'll be heading out to one of the open courtyards behind the

mausoleum. The easiest way to find it is to head back outside, to the east side

along the road, then head into the second courtyard. In a room of niches to the

left, low on the wall, is child actress and Disney legend Virginia Davis.

Before Mickey Mouse young Virginia was the star of the Walt Disney Company, playing Alice

in a series of live-action hybrid shorts called "The Alice Comedies." She began

working for Walt in 1924 at his Laugh-O-Gram studio while still in Kansas City.

When Disney moved out to LA he convinced Davis and her family to come along to

continue making the Alice comedies. The success of these short films paved the way

for Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Mickey Mouse, and all the rest. Here she is with a very

young Walt Disney, watching them draw their funnies.

And that concludes our tour! What are some of your favorite memories of the

stars we visited today? Share them in the comments below, and be sure to like, share,

and subscribe for more famous grave tours.

Thanks for watching, we'll see you on the next one.

Did you guys notice that golf cart parked in the mausoleum?

What you've heard about LA is true...

a good parking space is nearly impossible to find.

Episode 34

The sun and moon overlap, never stopping; new spring and golden autumn replace each other, never ending. - Li Sao (The Grievances) by Qu Yuan

Chu Hall

Miss Mo Chou why are you still here?

I'm about to leave.

Miss, are you just wearing that?

Is something wrong?

Never mind, we're late. Quickly now.

Never mind.

What are you all playing?

It is my birthday celebration, yet I have no spirit for this anymore.

Who are you?

I...

Replying to the Dowager Queen, she is the new Master Musician, Miss Mo Chou.

Did you hear what the musicians were playing earlier?

Replying to the Dowager Queen,

I have never before heard the tune they were playing earlier.

However, I can still discern between the good and bad.

Then was it good or bad?

The way of music is the way of nature.

Harmony is most important.

Hence bell and drum players can express their emotions and

the guqin players can liven the heart. (T/N guqin is the unbridged zither)

If we equate the bell and drum to the heaven and earth

then the pipes and flutes are like the sun, moon and stars.

While the sun, moon and stars are indeed dazzling,

without the heavens and earth, where would they exist.

The musicians removed the sound of bell chimes, so the music wavered and fluttered with no fixed tone.

Pretty words are no use with regard to music,

the important thing is being able to perform it.

If that's the case, why don't you perform a piece for us.

♫ Orange, your wonderful trees in this world, were born to be suitable for the lands here. ♫

♫ Since you received the order to not move, you lived forever in this southern state.♫

♫ Deeply-rooted and hard to move, that is because of your undivided will. ♫

♫ Your aspirations since young, have always been different to others. ♫ Qu Yuan's poems, honor beauty, celebrate beauty, eulogize beauty.

His aspirations of beauty are known to all.

But people only see his aspirations,

how many would know of the sorrow within the beauty,

the heartache within the feelings conveyed.

♫ Since you received the order to not move, ♫ The one I think of in my heart, the one I miss, is only you.

♫ you lived forever in this southern state. ♫ I could not hear it properly.

♫ Deeply-rooted and hard to move, ♫ The one I like is,

♫ that is because of your undivided will. ♫ Miss Bixia

♫ Your aspirations since young, ♫ What did you say? That's not what you said before.

♫ have always been different to others. ♫ Really? Then what did I say before?

You said, the only person that I think about,

the one I miss, is you.

I know.

Ohh, you Qu Ling Jun!

Don't leave, don't run, come over here!

♫ Abiding with morality, having no ulterior motive, really comparable to heaven and earth. ♫

♫ In this season where all life has withered, I'm willing to be your eternal friend. ♫

Good, great.

Lord Qu's poem and Miss Mo Chou's music,

it is indeed a perfect match.

The song is indeed alright.

The singing was okay.

But today is the Queen Dowager's birthday.

On a celebratory day, why is this musician dressed in mourning clothes?

What is the meaning behind it?

Mu Yi, the musician Mo Chou is new and doesn't understand the rules.

Do you not know them either? Why didn't you advise her?

I...

Your Majesty, The State of Chu just lost to Qin. Mo Chou...

Musician Mo Chou's mourning clothes must be because of the national mourning.

Right, yes! Official Qu's words are correct.

Oh, it's because of Qin.

Little Sister Ying, then this matter has to do with you too?

I...

What do you want to say?

When I look at you, I'm reminded of the Qin dogs killing my Chu soldiers.

- Your Majesty! - Hurry and leave.

You cannot leave.

Everyone's treatment toward Her Highness Concubine Ying does not seem appropriate.

What did you say?

Though I, Mo Chou, am a peasant girl,

I know that protecting the country is the responsibility of men.

And today's loss is due to the men.

But why do you blame the loss on a woman?

My Lady, Is this the kind of bearing and magnanimity we Chu have?

Impudence!

A plebeian girl like you dare to defy your superiors?

Attendants!

Drag both her and Concubine Ying out and listen for orders!

Yes.

Hold on!

Royal Mother, today is your birthday.

Don't ruin your mood over a trivial musician.

It won't be too late to punish them in the future.

Queen Nan. You are the ruler of the palace.

This wild girl needs to be taught.

Yes.

If Your Majesty didn't advise the Queen Dowager,

she would have punished Concubine Ying and Mo Chou.

That Mo Chou has an attitude, and even dares to speak against Royal Mother.

Even I have to watch myself.

The way your servant sees it, with Mo Chou's personality she shouldn't stay long in the palace.

With such boldness, there will be trouble eventually.

With me here, what can happen?

Your Majesty, forgive your servant for being blunt.

Your Majesty spoke up for a small musician in front of everyone.

I'm afraid the concubines will gossip.

They can say whatever they want.

If I need to be careful about trivial matters, how can I be king?

Where did such a wild girl come from?

How long has it been since she's entered the palace, and she has the King enchanted to this degree!

Consort, be careful!

Stupid servant.

Why aren't you getting lost?

Yes.

Come back.

Right now, go and see what that wild girl's background is.

Yes.

Musician Mo Chou, you're getting ready to rest?

Today, we saw it all.

His Majesty likely has intentions towards you.

- Exactly! - How is that possible?

Musician Mo Chou, when you become a concubine, don't forget about us!

Yes, don't forget us.

It seems that this place of ours is really quite auspicious.

A Grand Shaman came from here and now, there's going to be a concubine.

We are a room of good sisters.

when the time comes, don't forget to help raise us as well.

Don't forget us.

-Where is His Majesty? -He should be almost here.

What do you think of this set?

Consort is very beautiful.

But, today, that musician Mo Chou was not simple.

Beauty aside, it's rare to gain His Majesty's favor so soon after entering the Palace.

She's just a musician, what's to worry about?

That's not always the case.

As long as His Majesty likes her, a musician can also become a concubine.

According to you, then in the palace, I need to be careful of everyone?

Not just anyone. She's not simple.

I heard that during the war,

I heard Miss Mo Chou saved General Qu.

As such, her accomplishments to the State of Chu are not trivial.

If she can't be someone we use, she'll be the cause of future problems.

Madame, we should make plans early for how we'll handle her.

Your Highness, are you still thinking about that Musician Mo Chou?

Lan Xin,

previously have you seen that musician before?

No.

Then why do I feel as if

I've seen her before?

River Algae Palace

Princess, I know you don't like it,

but I'm old and I won't have much opportunity to say it anymore.

Today, is it my fault as well?

This time it's lucky that Miss Mo Chou was there to help you,

but how many times can she help you.

Then tell me what should I do.

Now that Chu has lost to Qin,

people both inside and outside the Palace are all hostile to Qin people.

I'm afraid the days in the Palace will be even harder than before to endure.

I think we need to talk less and lie low.

And what had I said today?

You cannot escape the things that will come.

Why is that person in the Palace.

Who took her there? Was it you?

It was His Majesty.

His Majesty?

Why would His Majesty arrange for her to be a musician?

How would I know?

Just a musician?

At least at the moment it still is.

His Majesty knows nothing about her identity.

But His Majesty's obsession with this girl is so very obvious.

If she still holds onto her grievances and has any designs on His Majesty, then it will not be good.

- Mo Chou would not do that. - How would you know!

If there is any mishap, then it would a great calamity for Chu.

No, I must go report this to His Majesty.

You are condemning her to death!

Moreover, previously you promised me,

that as long as she releases her anger and hate, you would not trouble her.

She has no desire for such things and it also wasn't her wish to enter the Palace.

Are you really going to go back on your words?

Never mind then.

But you had better tell her

that if she dares to do anything to harm His Majesty,

do not blame me if I forget the past and turn against her.

And you, you'd better stay away from her as well.

Your looks are quite fine,

except, your personality...

Her Highness the Queen is talking to you, are you mute?

I...

Yesterday, you were all full of presumptuous and wild claims.

If His Majesty hadn't been protecting you,

you'd be charged with insubordination, a death sentence.

Here it is different from the rural areas where you're from.

Your every move and gesture embodies the proprieties and etiquette within the Palace.

His Majesty may be able to protect you once,

but will he be able to protect you your whole life?

You need to rein it in a little. Understand?

I understand.

Your servant understands.

- Qiu Lu - Here.

Help her change her shoes.

Why are they so small?

This is Madam's gift to you.

You've just entered the Palace.

There are many forms of etiquette and protocols in the Palace which you must learn from the beginning.

After all, you are already a Royal Musician.

You cannot do as you please like before.

Come, walk a few steps and show me.

That is no good.

When a woman walks, she must be lithe and graceful, befitting to one's rank, like a peacock,

and thus demonstrate the noble character of the Royal clan.

With the way you're swaying to and fro,

it's just like a duck. Walk again.

Still no good.

Never mind. I shall demonstrate.

How is it, do you understand now?

Again.

From now on, whenever you meet a Concubine in the Inner Palace,

you must execute this greeting.

Who told you to move?

Madame, we have practiced for a long time today. It is time for dinner.

Your task today is to teach Musician Mo Chou the dances of the Royal Court.

What? Dancing as well?

Of course, it's a basic skill of any musician.

These dancers are some of the best in the Chu Palace.

Learn from them well.

Yes.

Okay, let's start.

This musician Mo Chou is indeed not easy to deal with.

Today, she really gave Your Highness so much trouble.

If not because the Queen Dowager told me to train her, I really don't want to bother with her.

If she wants to do mischief, then just let her.

When she had enough, there will naturally be a chance to let her slip down.

Miss Mo Chou, did you see it clearly already?

I already did.

It's just that seeing you all dance like that, it really makes the audience feel sleepy.

But this is how we danced ever since we were little.

That is because you all have never seen it before.

Let me tell you. Outside the palace, we have so many styles of dancing,

especially in our Quan County.

Men, women, elders, and children surrounding the bonfire, that's what we call dancing.

- Dancing around the fire? - That's right.

Just dance how you want to dance.

Miss Mo Chou, then teach us.

Okay.

You all also come over and dance.

That's right, remove all your shoes. Dancing without shoes is more fun.

Hurry and remove them!

What sound is that?

I also don't know.

What a scandal this is!

How unruly! You all are being so unruly!

I told you to teach her to dance. What is this that you were teaching her?

This...

I was the one who taught them that.

What? It was you who taught them to dance that?

Okay. Really great.

Looks like, I really belittled you.

Queen Dowager, Your Majesty.

What is it?

That musician Mo Chou, I really cannot control her anymore.

What really happened?

Today, as ordered by Royal Mother,

I asked the the palace dancers to teach musician Mo Chou how to dance.

Who would have known that she will lead those people playing crazily while barefooted.

Totally so unruly.

Is that real?

I dare not lie.

She even dared to disobey the decree of the Queen.

I think that she wants to rebel already.

Lan Xin.

Teach her a lesson on my behalf.

- Yes. - Wait.

What? Do you still plan to ask for mercy for that wild girl?

I am just curious

what style the musician Mo Chou changed dancing into

that made the Queen this angry.

How about I'll accompany Royal Mother to go there and take a look?

If she really danced in a vulgar way, it won't be late to punish her by then.

Your Majesty, as the head of the inner court,

would I make up false rumors about a musician?

A musician is a model of our country's etiquette.

If we just casually punish her and this gets out, won't that make the inner court a laughing-stock?

Fine then.

Why don't we call all the Royal Concubines and Consort

to come and watch her dance.

I really want to see what kind of dance she can come up with.

Respectfully greeting Your Majesty and the Dowager Queen.

Mo Chou, I heard that you angered the Queen when you were in your dance training.

The Queen was willing to spare you and just let you perform for us live.

If you are able to gain the admiration of everyone, then you can be spared from your punishment. Understand?

I understand.

Why aren't there any musicians that will do the accompaniment?

I don't need any musicians to play accompaniment. I only need this drum.

Okay. Then it's all up to you.

Enough!

As a musician, you were wearing like this

and danced this kind of dance! What a scandal!

Royal Mother, I think the dances inside the palace

have been the same for so many years.

It is indeed time to have some novelty.

Royal Son, you are not contradicting me

just because of a little musician, right?

This musician is insensible. Could it be that you also don't know the rules?

I dare not.

Mo Chou.

Here.

From now on, you are not allowed to dance these ordinary citizen's dances.

The ordinary citizens and the palace have differences in terms of status.

As a royal musician, you should learn the palace music and dances.

Understand?

Understand.

Your Majesty, these matters will just be settled like that?

Of course, other than learning dances, you must also learn poems.

As they say, knowing poems makes one know proper etiquette.

I will choose an outstanding teacher for you to personally teach you.

Aren't you still going to thank Your Majesty's grace?

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Really never thought that today,

my eyes would be opened by that wild girl.

That's right. This Miss Mo Chou is obviously someone who has studied dancing since she was little.

Her foundation is very strong.

You cannot really compare her with those dancers inside the palace.

I don't think that way.

She can't compare to Little Sister's dance on lily leaves in the past.

It was very stunning and really made His Majesty very happy.

That may not be really the case.

We are all already old Royal Concubines. No matter how well we dance,

we already are has-beens, aren't we?

Respectfully greeting Your Majesty.

No need for formalities. Have you been well lately?

The Minister of War and your mother have just passed away. You are currently in mourning.

I shouldn't have intruded.

It's just that I have encountered a bit of a problem lately.

Only a talented individual like Ling Jun can help unburden me.

Your Majesty, just give your order.

Subject Qu is outstanding in terms of poetic talent. Don't know if you know the "Three Hundred Poems" well.

I indeed have read it when I was little.

That's good then.

Do you still remember that Miss Mo Chou?

What's wrong with her?

Since the day she entered, the inner palace has never become silent.

Royal Mother insists that she doesn't follow proper etiquette,

and wants her to learn poems to understand the right moral principles.

That's why, I can only come and look for you.

Your Majesty, for this matter, I'm afraid...

I won't be able to bear such a heavy task.

Ling Jun doesn't need to be humble. If you can't, who can?

Your Majesty...

You think I like the "Three Hundred Poems"?

If not because Royal Mother is pressuring me to get Mo Chou to learn it,

I wouldn't really be doing this.

I am willing to give it a try.

♫ Thinking of a beauty, distant floating clouds deliver me. ♫

♫ Yet, the passing wild geese do not understand me. ♫

♫ Returning birds ride the winds and fly far, while I remain in the same place with a broken wing. ♫

It's right in front of us. Please, sir.

♫ Watching my longings score across the sky to the horizons. ♫

♫ A man's aspirations, heartache through all ages, overflow within the heart. ♫

♫ Toss it into the waters of the east-flowing river. ♫

♫ Smile not a smile, worries still be worries. Who in the mortal world can understand? ♫

♫ Flick the sleeves and walk alone, not looking back. ♫

♫ I ask thee, can you discern the traces she leaves. ♫

♫ While the years have yet to pass, pick a lotus so as to share. ♫

Mo Chou.

♫ Do not let regrets dwell in your heart. ♫

Lady Mo Chou, today we will learn the meaning of "the people" of the "Three Hundred Poems".

The Zhou Emperors emphasized rites.

The rites uphold the heavenly law above, and unite the people's feelings below.

Teacher Qu, being defiant of convention, how can you be fond of the "Three Hundred Poems"?

The "Three hundred poems" are the established standard for poems.

The poet, whether upon writing poetry, or upon performing conduct,

must always act within the standard.

"Do not to do to others as you would not wish done to yourself".

Teacher, you clearly do not like the "Three Hundred Poems", yet you still make me study it.

Miss Mo Chou, what you've described is what I was like before.

Is it that you no longer write Chu poems?

Have you forgotten "The Ode to the Orange", forgotten "Mountain Spirit"?

Miss Mo Chou, those are all things of the past.

True, they're all things of the past.

Poems, arise from our feelings.

Since we are within the Palace,

everything would need to be bound by decorum.

The Queen Dowager talks about decorum with me, so does the Queen.

His Majesty talks about decorum with me

and now, you talk about decorum with me as well?

I did not come to this world to listen to such lectures.

This Palace has already locked down my body,

does it want to lock down my heart as well?

Mo Chou, do you really not understand why His Majesty made you enter the Palace?

He is interested in you.

So?

So you didn't come today to talk to me about poems?

You're here to speak on his behalf.

- Mo Chou... - Leave.

- Mo Chou listen to me, - I'm telling you to leave.

- can you please calm down. - Leave!

Your Majesty, the meal has been prepared.

Why is it this again?

Where is Musician Mo Chou?

The musicians would be in the Music Hall.

What does His Majesty wish to see me for?

No matter what happens, Musician Mo Chou should maintain a smiling face.

If you keep a long face, His Majesty would be unhappy.

You're here.

Your servant greets Your Majesty.

It's better if you don't follow any etiquette.

Before me, you are not my servant,

you are just Mo Chou.

I dare not.

Why not?

Since I've entered the Palace, I have made many mistakes.

Now every step I take is like walking on thin ice,

I'm constantly cautious of the things I say for fear of causing further troubles.

I still like the way you were before. It's far more enticing.

Come here.

Sit beside me and have a few drinks with me.

What is it? Are you scared that I'd eat you?

Come.

Drink.

I do not drink.

Then learn.

Come, I'll teach you.

Your Majesty.

I'll drink it.

That's better.

How was today's lesson?

What is it? Do you not like this teacher either?

Then I shall teach him a lesson.

It's not that.

The teacher taught well.

Tell me then, what have you learned.

He used a few poems to caution me on the need for

self-constraint and observance of rules within the Palace.

Was it hard to learn?

I am but a commoner girl,

so I do not like to listen to these grand principles.

How can the person I choose be an average girl.

Your Majesty.

Google's Android platform and Apple's iOS platform have both grown so much

over the past few years in many ways Android has gained a range of features

at oak plus iOS and in other ways iOS has been updated with features that

are superior to Android there is now also plenty of overlaps between the two

platforms but even in areas where features are similar one platform

generally has the edge over the other

one example is the concept of a control center which many users prefer on iOS

thanks to its clean layout and the fact that it only takes one swipe to access

rather than to the quick settings page in the Android Notification Center is

very handy you get saw goes to various options and settings plus it's

customizable however if you own large smartphone accessing the notification

shade and then swiping down again to bring quick settings can be quite the

hassle well this is where I think the pull up control center in iOS does the

job a lot better the ability to just swipe up to bring the control center and

use various toggles and options on iOS is pretty handy

control center PR Oh Center is the control center help you have planes
