Nestro has admired Monica for a long time and has wanted to date her but is too shy around girls to ask. He is a football player
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Nestro has committed battery.

Explanation:

Even though there is a whole story behind what Nestro did - his admiration for Monica, the fact that he didn't mean to harm her, and the fact that he apologized -, he still committed battery. Battery can be defined as the unlawful and or unwanted touching of the person of another by the aggressor. Monica did not wish or expect to be touched at all. Therefore, Nestro could be punished for touching her.

Two symbolic significances of the flag bearers parade during the opening ceremony
bearhunter [10]

The Ancient Olympic Games originated in Greece, where the first competitive sports were played. The modern Olympics models its ancestry down to the opening and closing ceremonies. For instance, the winners of the Ancient Games received an olive wreath as their reward. In 2004, the International Olympic Committee decided to honor this tradition by rewarding the winners with a crown of olive branches. The artistic display during the opening, closing, and victory ceremonies must meet the standards set forth by the International Olympic Committee. In fact, the IOC oversees every action put in motion at the scheduled Olympic Games.

The Olympic ceremonies evolved over the centuries; however, many elements mirror the ancient way of marking the start and finish of the Games. The International Olympic Committee has preserved the core of the Ancient Olympics by keeping the basic events of the scheduled event the same. For instance, the modern Olympic Games incorporate technological advances to allow the hosting nation to display their own artistic expression. Each nation may build their own elements into the opening and closing ceremonies after they have met the approval of the International Olympic Committee. As the years trail along, the ceremonies continue to expand in scope, scale, and expense in an attempt to outdo previous celebrations; however, the majority of nations recognize the backbone of Grecian tradition.

The opening ceremonies represent the official start of the Olympic Games; however, the modern Games have introduced athletic competition before the commencement of the main sporting events, especially with the ever-expanding football competition that continues to add a growing number of teams each successive celebration. The Olympic Charter dictates that each celebration follows the canonized rituals bestowed during the 1920 Summer Olympic Games. The opening ceremonies typically commence with the raising of the hosting nation's flag along with the signing of the national anthem. Afterward, the hosting nation displays its artistic works in the form of music, art, singing, dance, and theater. In addition, it details the country's history, culture, and overall importance for the global community. It also showcases the current Olympic Game motto. The traditional part of the opening ceremonies commences with the Parade of Nations, or the introduction of the participating athletes in marching form. Each of these participating athletes marches with their country's team by raising their nation's flag. Shortly thereafter, the President of the Organizing Committee and IOC makes a speech and then turns the microphone over to the country's representative who officially declares the opening of the Games.
