In 1892, at a YMCA in the US state of Massachusetts, Dr Naismith hung up the peach baskets that gave birth to the game of basketball. William Morgan, his friend, studied the game and deemed it perhaps too strenuous for a middle-aged businessman. Thus, three years later, Morgan invented his own game. Another century later, his invention, volleyball, has emerged along with basketball as one of the fastest, most powerful sports of the Olympic Games.

Morgan called his game "Mintonette". However, a local professor quickly noted the ball being volleyed over the net, and the sport almost immediately changed names.

From the outset, volleyball has been a game unafraid of change from any direction. And it quickly went in many directions. Thanks to the long tentacles of the international YMCA network, Japan was playing the game by 1896, followed closely by other Asian countries. A specially designed ball came into play in 1900, and, over the next 20 years, the game developed to closely resemble the game of volleyball as we know it today.

The set and spike originated in the Philippines in 1920. Six-a-side play became standard in 1918. In 1920, the rules mandating three hits per side and back-row attacks were instituted.

我该继续使用延时药物吗？

我结婚20年了，妻子非常贤惠，儿子也很听话，很多朋友都羡慕我有个温馨的家。可我心里清楚，真的叫家家有本难念的经呐！我跟妻子已经分床1年多了，我知道是我的原因---每次房事的时候我总是坚持不了一小会儿就....妻子是个比较内向的女人，虽然她不能满足但也没有对我发过牢骚，可久而久之的，她就不愿意跟我行房事了，最后她干脆搬到客房去住下了。 我记得是今年五一过后，有一天晚上我心里感觉特别憋得慌，便叫上一个特别好的哥们一起喝酒，他看我喝闷酒，就一个劲的追问我原因，我告诉他妻子跟我分床好长时间了，在他的追问下我道出了实情。我以为他会笑话我，谁知道他一拍我的肩膀：“我以为什么大不了的呢！”接着他让我等他一小会儿就跑出去了。大概过了10几分钟时间他回来了，还没坐好他就递给我一个小瓶子，上面印着什么几个英文字母“citemn”，我忙问他这是什么，他却神神秘秘地说：“用了这个东西，我保证你老婆不会跟你分床了。”接下来他告诉我，原来他给我的是什么“可提玛”，是西班牙产的一种延时药物，他让我回家试试，说效果非常好的。回家后以后，我趁洗澡的时候悄悄喷了一点“可提玛”在那上面，然后假装有事跟妻子说，就赖在了她的床上，接下来发生的事就不言而喻了。令我感到惊喜的是：这个东东的功效比我想象的要好得多，我比以前延长了20分钟左右。妻子是个矜持的女人，虽然她什么也没有说，但我也看出她的满足，我心里暗自高兴！ 后来我在百度一搜索“citemn”，发现用的人还很多，于是我心里也坦然了。 就这样一来二去，妻子终于搬回我们的房间跟我一起住了，我们的夫妻生活过得也算是很协调的了，可她一直不知道我使用了延时药，因为我每次都是在洗澡的时候喷的。我的心里开始有点矛盾了，我不知道应不应该继续使用这种延时药物，怕妻知道后会怪我依靠药物跟她行房事。 我想请朋友们帮我出出主意，我是继续使用延时药来维持我们和谐的夫妻生活呢，还是应该停止使用延时药物？还有长期使用有没有什么副作用？朋友们能给我一个好的建议吗？谢谢大家了！！！
