NAIROBI nike air max 97 ultra pas cher , June 27 (Xinhua) -- Kenyan girl Wynn Kendi created a spectacle at the University of Nairobi grounds on Friday morning as she made rhythmic steps while waving a brightly colored silk cloth.
The 21-year-old mandarin student at the university's Confucius Institute has won accolades from peers and tutors for her mastery of Chinese traditional and contemporary dance.
Born and raised in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, Kendi's love for Chinese language, culture and arts blossomed after high school thanks to exposure and sheer enthusiasm.
"I was riding in a public service vehicle when I spotted the signpost of a Chinese restaurant. The eye catching signpost was written in Chinese and I could not comprehend the meaning. This marked the beginning of my quest to learn Chinese language nike air max 97 ultra femme pas cher ," Kendi said.
She enrolled for a Chinese language major at the institute in May 2014 and besides eloquence, Kendi is also endowed with agility that has made it possible for her to master both Kenyan and Chinese dance.
She benefitted from a one month scholarship last December to improve her proficiency in Chinese language and dance at a reputable university in China.
Kendi participated in the Chinese language proficiency contest for Kenyan University students held in May this year.
A growing number of Kenyan youth are passionate about learning Chinese language and rich culture. They gained exposure to the rich culture of China thanks to the influence of mass media and a significant presence of Chinese nationals in the East African nation.
Kendi is not only fluent in Chinese language but has as well mastered key characters. Kendi`s mastery of Chinese dance has created a buzz in Kenya's oldest university.
She noted that Chinese dance is soft, elegant and an instant hit to Kenyans who are used to aggressive dance moves. "I love silk dance and various types of opera. They are sentimental nike air max 97 premium pas cher , rhythmic and authentic," Kendi told Xinhua.
Kendi's one-month stint in China last December improved her grasp of mandarin and traditional Chinese dance. She also interacted with a broad swath of the Chinese society while at the University.
"During my stay in China, I came to learn the people are very caring and warm. I loved the way people did exercise together while the food though different from ours was quite delicious nike air max 97 premium femme ," said Kendi.
She has benefitted from another Chinese government scholarship and will enroll at a university in northeast China this September to study mandarin.
"I hope my proficiency in mandarin will improve a notch higher and intends to learn more about the Chinese culture and cuisine. Likewise, I will try Chinese clothes during my stay there in September," Kendi told Xinhua.
Her future aspirations are to become an accomplished mandarin teacher and a translator.
Her tutors agreed the versatile young female student has a bright future given her quick mastery of mandarin and Chinese dance.
UNITED NATIONS， March 13 (Xinhua) -- UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday said women's empowerment must be a key priority in a male dominated world.
Addressing the 61st session of UN Commission on the Status of Women， Guterres said empowerment is about breaking structural barriers for women in all walks of life.
"We are all better off when we open doors of opportunity for women and girls: in classrooms and boardrooms， in military ranks and at peace talks， in all aspects of productive life，" he said.
Guterres also said women should be recognized as equal at workplace and should be promoted on that basis.
"Our world needs more women leaders. And our world needs more men standing up for gender equality，" he added.
The Commission on the Status of Women is the principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women.
The priority theme for this year's session is women's economic empowerment in the changing world of work.
Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka， Executive Director of UN Women， said virtually all economies rely on the unpaid care and domestic work that is largely provided by women and girls.
"Positive changes in the world of work must enable care work to be valued and to be shared by parents and within the family unit，" she noted.
"This will bring about far-reaching positive changes for women， society and economies，" she said.
On Monday nike air max 97 femme pas cher , the Philadelphia Eagles signed a fourth-string quarterback who has played one season's worth of games with an uninspiring 47.9 percent completion rate.
Not much of a story, especially given the beginning of Major League Baseball's (MLB) regular season and the NBA playoffs. Except that the Eagles' new fourth-string quarterback is Tim Tebow.
How does that fact turn this -seemingly mundane information into a hot news item? Let us count the ways.
First of all, Tebow's name itself is enough to polarize football fans. Florida Gators fans love him. All other Southeastern Conference fans hate him. NFL fans are vocally divided.
Did Tebow lead the Denver -Broncos to eight regular season wins as a -starter in 2010-11? Yes. Did his throwing -motion during that time period make football purists want to gouge their eyes out nike air max 97 rose pale pas cher , Oedipus-style? Yes again.
Most experts suggested that Tebow either a) hone his quarterbacking skills in the Canadian Football League, b) try to break into the NFL as a tight end or fullback, or c) quit the game forever and just go away.
Similar to his staunch Christian -beliefs nike air max 97 grise pas cher , however, Tebow remains steadfast in his desire to be an NFL quarterback. This despite the fact that since leaving Denver, he has been cut by two teams - one a theater of the absurd (the New York Jets) nike air max 97 bordeaux pas cher , one the pantheon of modern football success (the New England Patriots).
That Tebow's current tryout co.
