Each person must be on one team or the other; the number of people on the two teams must not differ by more than 1; the total weight of the people on each team should be as nearly equal as possible. The input begins with a single positive integer on a line by itself indicating the number of the cases following, each of them as described below. This line is followed by a blank line, and there is also a blank line between two consecutive inputs. The first line of input contains n the number of people at the picnic. n lines follow. The first line gives the weight of person 1; the second the weight of person 2; and so on. Each weight is an integer between 1 and 450. There are at most 100 people at the picnic. For each test case, the output must follow the description below. The outputs of two consecutive cases will be separated by a blank line. Your output will be a single line containing 2 numbers: the total weight of the people on one team, and the total weight of the people on the other team.

Write to the Magazine This illuminating and wonderfully subversive book is, without a doubt, the most important contribution to the history of US national security policy to appear in the past decade. Nominally, Perils of Dominance reinterprets the origins of the Vietnam War, recounting the crucial decisions made between 1954 and 1965 culminating in the commitment of American combat forces. In retracing this familiar sequence of events Gareth Porter, an independent scholar who has published on the war for more than three decades, challenges and overturns conventional explanations of how the United States blundered into that conflict. But the revisionist interpretation that he puts forward is of far more than historical interest.

    Extractions: Sports Volunteers Tug of war is a unique team sport, where the team work requires all team members to do the same thing. Perhaps only rowing can match the sport in this respect. Tug of War Takes place outdoors, on grass, and indoors on mats, and there are male, female and youth (under 18) competitions at various weight categories, which take place all year round, indoor (October-March) in the winter, and outdoor in the summer (April-September). A Tug of War team consists of eight pullers (six for some youth competitions) plus a coach and a trainer. The coach is the only person in the arena (apart from the judge) who may address remarks to the team during a pull. All pulls are conducted under the control of a TOWA judge. Pulls are best of three, the choice of first end being decided by the toss of a coin. The object is to pull the opposing team a distance of four metres. Teams can be disqualified for persistently infringing the rules. The rules are clearly stated in the TOWA Handbook, but if you stay in a proper pulling position, i.e. facing forwards with both hands on the rope, do not sit down and do not lock the rope across your body you should be OK.

Importantly, he describes how the Shia religious establishment overtook leftist and nationalist movements in articulating opposition to the Shah and foreign meddling in Iran, thus setting the stage for the ouster of the Shah and the ascension of the Ayatollah to power.

Over the past year or so, more than two dozen governments have passed or proposed nearly 70 laws or policy changes that stipulate or strongly encourage governmental use of open-source software. The Initiative for Software Choice has been lobbying against such laws since May, and intends to step up its efforts over the next few weeks to block the adoption of pending open-source preference proposals in Europe and South America. The ISC's first target will be Venezuela, where President Hugo Chavez's key ministers have been working on a package of presidential decrees. The package, part of what the government is variously calling "Measures to Reactivate the Economy" and "Basic Policies to Modernize the State," is slated to be released Saturday, and is expected to include a decree mandating nearly exclusive governmental use of open-source software. The ISC says such legislation, which is also pending in the Ukraine, Columbia and Peru, acts as a barrier to trade for American companies and runs afoul of various treaties and World Trade Organization rules.

The tug of war is a method of teaching the mother proper pushing technique, and encouraging her to push effectively. The mother pulls on a piece of cord or cloth while she pushes. Why does the tug of war work? By pulling against a force, the mother is made to use the abdominal muscles necessary for proper pushing. How do I do it? Position the mother into a semi-reclining or squatting position. Give one end of a towel, rope or rebozo to the mother while the coach keeps the other. During a contraction, have the mother pull on the towel while the coach gives resistance as if they were having a tug of war. Be sure the mother is properly supported so she will not lose her balance. Some sample tug of war techniques: Wrap a towel around the squat bar on a hospital bed. Have the mother hold both ends of the towel and pull during contractions.
