  Dance Tutor's Swing Dance Sneak Peak
After shifting your weight to the backward step (but without touching your back heel to the floor), the second step ("step") is as if you changed your mind after the first backwards step and decided to walk forward.
During the basic step, since you are facing your partner, each is a mirror-image of the other, which is to say that if you do the basic step by yourself facing a mirror, what you see in the mirror is what your partner will be doing.
And the slows correspond to the lefts-to-the-side and rights-to-the-side.

  Slow Two step - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The slow two step is a Latin dance, a round dance rhythm danced to slow, romantic music with either 4 or 6 beats per measure and a tempo of 16–32 measures per minute.
The nightclub two step or California two step was originated by Buddy Schwimmer, Lee and Linda Wakefield, and Ron Montez in the mid 1960s in crowded dance clubs on the West Coast as a dance that could be used for very slow love ballads that are otherwise difficult to dance to.
Slow two step was introduced to round dancing in the early 1990s by Bill and Carol Goss, but they presented it as a "slow, quick, quick" rhythm, with the side step done first and the rock/recover second.

 Rumba: Tips and Info
The second half of the slow step assumes the weight as the same knee straightens, and, as the same knee straightens, the same hip will rise, creating the desired hip action.
The break step should occur on the second beat of the measure, not on the first, third, or fourth beat of the measure.
As the music is slow, it is almost impossible to become a great rumba dancer without disciplining yourself to count the music and to dance strictly in conformance to the tempo.

Step on the heel first and going flat on the foot as the Right foot closes in towards the Left foot.
In this process two steps are taken forward for which the counts is "Slow Step" and "Slow Step".
The next step would be to move the Right foot forward, or it is already in forward position then simply transfer weight to it and count "Slow step" which is followed with the Quick steps to the side.

Which is 5 steps and of course, not correct at all, and not your intention.
The principle of using a second word to count the second beat of a slow is fine but the word AND is already defined as meaning half a beat stolen from the previous step, as KC mentioned, and this applies to standard as well as latin.
One of my favorite NC2S patterns is a leader's walk around with all slow step steps...or a double slow step (step and hold for two beats) to the left followed by a double slow step to the right (with a lot of swaying action).

 Chemistry : Chapter 14 : Mechanisms   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The assumption is that each elementary step is the result of a collision and that the molecularity describes the collision.
A fast, reversible step will soon reach a point where the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction (equilibrium).
Because each elementary step has its own rate constant, the easiest way to keep track of the rate constants is to use the number of the step as a subscript.

 Dance Lovers: November 2006 Archives
When you learn a second or newer step, when you're comfortable with the newer step, do it before the first step (the one you are most comfortable with).

 Rhythm Reminder by Dance In Time Productions - Salsa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Your steps are done by alternating which foot you are stepping onto---the right then the left, then the right, then the left, etc. This is the same as what you do when you walk.
Another very nice step is called the "Park Avenue." In this step, the man turns his body at a 45 degree angle to his left and steps forward in that direction with his left and then with his right.
She is led to move in the natural opposite as always, so she is stepping back and at an angle to her right starting with her right foot and then continues walking backwards in the same direction with a step on her left.

The first two steps of a triple step are half beats and the third step is a full beat (musically - 1 & 2).
If you count triple step 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, rock step, you will have a hard time dancing to fast music and it will always feel frantic because you will not be with the music.
The intent is to get two fast steps and a slow step in the triple step.

 Feel the beat: Nightclub two-step
Nightclub two-step music is slow, between 60 and 90bpm, usually with a steady backbeat on the snare drum, and a characteristic rhythm in the bass and bass drum.
Now, usually a quick corresponds to a quarter note and a slow to a half note, but that law is not written in stone, so we can with some justice pronounce the triple rhythm in nightclub two-step as quick quick slow too.
If you exchange the slow and the quick quick, you get slow quick quick, which is the basic rhythm for (International and silver level American style) foxtrot.

 Mechanistic Theory
One of the steps would be the slowest step in the process, and was identified as the "rate determining" step.
Question 5- The slowest step in the mechanism is used to formulate a theoretical rate law expression based on this theoretical reaction model (mechanism).
If the proposed reaction mechanism has the slow rate determining step which is not preceeded by a fast equilibrium step then the theroretical rate expression based on the mechanism is simply the expression that you would get when considering only the slow step.

STEP 3: Be wary of oversized trucks and older vehicles when you're entering traffic; these vehicles tend to take longer to reach the speed limit so you don't want to run into the back of them in your haste to merge.
Slow moving vehicles - If the traffic behind you wants to pass, let them do so by checking the road ahead,and if clear, move slightly to the right and signal to let them pass.
