Faced with the dilemma of Nate being invited to the fashion ball by Lee to present the fall line-up and Kate being invited by Daniel, she decides to go as both. While changing disguises in a storage room, she overhears Elise and Frost conspiring to steal the designs and framing it on Nate. Nate runs up to tell Lee, but Elise has already convinced Lee that it was his doing, and he is fired. Upset, she runs out of the ball and leaves, but not before Daniel realizes Nate is really Kate.
Critical reception for After the Ball has been mixed. The film holds a rating of 27% on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 15 reviews, with an average score of 4.98/10.[2] The Hollywood Reporter and Variety both criticized the film as being unmemorable,[3][4] while the National Post commented that by the film's climax \"you've either given up on the film or been won over by its moderate charms, but in either case you know you're almost at happily-ever-after, and an end credits rolls that includes funding by Telefilm Canada. If you're familiar with Cinderella or Shakespeare (film versions count), this will be comfort food with no nasty surprises.\"[5]
On 30 January 2020, Marc-André Grondin retroactively received for the year 2012 the Aurore Award for the Masculine Liquid-Paper Award (Worst actor).[7] This has been done so after the actor said during an interview with La Presse that he was saddened not to receive the prize after his performance.[8]
\"After the Ball\" is a popular song written in 1891 by Charles K. Harris. The song is a classic waltz in 3/4 time. In the song, an uncle tells his niece why he has never married. He saw his sweetheart kissing another man at a ball, and he refused to listen to her explanation. Many years later, after the woman had died, he discovered that the man was her brother.
\"After the Ball\" became the most successful song of its era, which at that time was gauged by the sales of sheet music. In 1892, it sold over two million copies of sheet music. Its total sheet music sales exceed five million copies, making it the best seller in Tin Pan Alley's history.[1] It exemplifies the sentimental ballads published before 1920, whose topics were frequently babies, separation, and death.[2]
After the ball was over, after the break of morn,After the dancers' leaving, after the stars are gone;Many a heart is aching, if you could read them all;Many the hopes that have vanished, after the ball.After the ball was over, Bonnie took out her glass eye,Put her false teeth in the water, hung up her wig to dry;Placed her false arm on the table, laid her false leg on the chair;After the party was over, Bonnie was only half there!
After the ball was over, Bonnie took out her glass eye, Put her false teeth in the basin, corked up a bottle of dyePut her false leg in the corner, hung up her hair on the wallAnd all that was left went to bye byes after the ball.
After the ball is over, see her take out her glass eye,Put her false teeth in some water, cork up a bottle of dye,Hang her false hair in the wardrobe then she takes off her false leg,Half of my rose on the table, the other half in bed.
Parents need to know that After the Ball is an uninspired romcom modeled after the Cinderella fairy tale. It features a young designer who goes undercover to save her father's fashion empire from her wicked stepmother and stepsisters. The stepsisters and stepmother scheme and manipulate throughout the film, while Kate and company also deceive to save the day. There is some profanity: \"damn,\" \"asses,\" \"sugar t-ts,\" \"hell.\" It's entertaining for its low-key predictability, but there are better movies that impart more interesting, truer messages about the fashion industry and true love.
Kate (Portia Doubleday) wants to work in the fashion industry, but her father's (Chris Noth) fashion empire -- and its reputation for stealing designs -- means she'll never work in this town. Instead she dutifully joins the family business, but after her mean stepmother (Lauren Holly) and stepsisters get her fired, she goes undercover to prove her talents and expose their corruption. Luckily, there's a prince of a guy in the shoe department who seems eager to help Kate reach her goals.
In a recent study,15 participants with CAI experienced a remarkable decrease in COP excursion relative to individuals without CAI while kicking a ball in a single-legged stance, which is anecdotally a perturbation training technique commonly used at athletic clubs and clinical sites to train and rehabilitate those with CAI. The authors suggested that individuals with CAI should increase the stiffness of their lower extremities via neuromuscular mechanisms during this type of activity to decrease the risk of recurrent ankle sprain. Therefore, postural sway during dynamic activities might increase after balance training as individuals become familiar with task demands and their anxiety levels about ankle instability decrease.
The postural-control strategies used while standing motionless on 1 limb versus those used while performing functional activities are quite different. In the former, one must restrict movement of the supporting limb's articulations, and, hence, one's center of mass or COP, as much as possible.16 With the latter, one might need to achieve greater joint-angle excursions to enhance functional task performance. Typically, individuals with CAI exhibit greater postural sway when standing motionless on 1 limb than do healthy control participants, but this disparity decreases with balance training.12,17 The opposite effect may occur in dynamic conditions, such as performing functional tasks; that is, with balance training, balance sway may increase. For instance, individuals with CAI improved their dynamic postural control (ie, increased excursion during a Star Excursion Balance Test) after training involving various balance activities in a single-legged stance11 or balancing on an unstable surface.10 Therefore, the results of these studies suggested that increased COP excursion while performing dynamic tasks might not necessarily indicate decreased postural stability, as observed in static conditions. This hypothesis needs to be tested, as it could affect the way postural instability is tested in patients with CAI.
Investigators have presented evidence that postural-control strategies can be modified by balance training22 and physical activities.23 For instance, exercises focused on balance improvement, such as the Tai Chi Chuan method, reduced the APAs of multiple muscles and improved postural stability.22 Furthermore, BPT that involved a single session, such as standing on 1 limb on a Swiss ball,24 throwing a ball,25 or performing trunk- stabilization exercises,26 appeared to promote changes in static and dynamic balance control. Whereas balance-training techniques that incorporate postural perturbations have been used widely in clinics and sports clubs to improve balance and potentially decrease recurrent sprains in patients with CAI, the effects of these training techniques on postural-control strategies remain unknown. Understanding how these strategies are modified by training could help researchers and clinicians improve existing techniques or develop new and more effective rehabilitation interventions to restore postural stability in patients with CAI.
Representation of the experimental tasks and balance training protocol. A, Experiment 1: the single-legged stance during the static task. B, Experiment 2: the ball launcher and a participant performing the kicking task (dynamic task). C, The balance-training protocol.
One researcher, who was not an author, positioned the ball at the top of the inclined ball launcher and released it toward the suspended foot. The experimenter then instructed the participant to kick the ball back toward him, aiming through 2 widely spaced wooden rods that were 39 cm high and 80 cm apart and positioned in front of the ball launcher (Figure 2B). The paired rods were intended to provide participants with a reference point rather than a target while kicking. Because the ball was always released from the same height and distance, participants received similar perturbations throughout the sequence of experimental tasks.
In this latter experiment, we subjected the participants to 2 successive perturbations: first, internal perturbation, which the individual generated by moving his or her own limbs, and second, external perturbation, which was the force of the ball during the generated impact. The time intervals APA, CPA1, and CPA2 corresponded to events before limb motion, before the kick, and after the kick, respectively. In particular, CPA1 was compensatory to limb movement but was anticipatory because of the perturbation caused by the ball's impact. We arbitrarily decided to name this interval CPA. Participants performed a series of 5 kicks while we collected data.
For experiment 2, we combined a computer algorithm and visual inspection of the accelerometer signals to detect the timing of limb-movement onset and ball impact. We defined limb-movement onset as the time at which the signal reached 5% of its acceleration peak. We demarcated the impact time as the highest peak of the signal, which usually coincided with the reversal of acceleration.15 We then calculated kicking time (KT) by subtracting the time of impact from limb-movement onset.
Individuals with CAI may exhibit ligament laxity, decreased proprioception, and motor-reaction deficits.3,36,37 Given these pathobiologic mechanisms, they experience the sensations of ankle instability and giving way and the fear of recurrent sprain. This condition may cause them to initially increase their muscular activity excessively, thereby increasing stiffness in their lower extremity joints and decreasing postural excursion during the experimental task.15 Researchers38 have shown that individuals with CAI react excessively, unloading their body weight, to painful electrical stimulation when ba
