Jinn?
According to critics, an eavesdropper, constantly striving to go behind the curtains of heaven in order to steal divine secrets. May grant wishes.

Historical roots of cheerleading
The origins of the bizarre culture of cheerleaders: ![[this item]](http://radio.weblogs.com/0103811/images/sharpPermaLink3.gif)
It all began at a Princeton University football game. Thomas Peebler gathered 6 men who led a yell on the sidelines in front of the student body. In 1884, he took the yell to the University of Minnesota campus. ... In 1920, yell leaders brought in drums and noisemakers. As football became more popular, so did cheerleading. Women became active in cheerleading in the 1920s.
